    The most I've heard so far from our hosts is the server was 'having a few problems'. Still waiting for a full report. Will keep you posted.

    If this is a family forum why is it competing with a whore's drawers for the most "downs" in one day?

    Apparently Saspro's IT company is really good; why not switch BT over to them to maintain?

    Bit-Tech site worked better when it was hosted from some old Pentium 90 PC in the early days.

    Yeah... maybe it's time to upgrade it :lol:

    Hey don't be muscling in on our little forum - although it's consistent presence and lack of full screen ads do give it a certain appeal that bit is lacking. :p

    I think the problem is the inverse; They've fed the poor blighter too much Cheesecake and he's too fat to balance the wheel properly, so it keeps stalling as it tilts off axis due to his adorable pudginess.

    Bit Tech's host afaik is the same one that the site I write for is also using.

    We had some issues recently with them too.

    Pain in the backside.

    As you may have gathered, the site is doing some odd things at the moment which is affecting our ability to publish content properly, so sorry for the lack of stuff to read today. All I can tell you is we're working on it. Cheers.

    You pair of pessimistic curmudgeons - repeat after me "everything is fine now".
