I seem to be getting auto e-mails saying that a reply had been posted to one of my messages, but when I look, there is no reply there.
RP430, I got two e-mails saying you had replied to the 'spy shot' thread, but your post does not show.
Mr. V?

I have a cable connection, and it happens sometimes to me.
I also don't understand why we have to drill down an extra level to get to the forum.
But then again, who am I to complain.

I also find it difficult to post the reply, usually getting a very slow response from the server. But I have found that I do not need to wait for the server to respond before I go back to the forum and the post is not lost.
It's a little strange that this server often takes so long to respond in this instance whilst the rest of the website it is pretty quick.
I'm not complaining, though, I find the forums part of the website very entertaining and well designed.

when trying to post at times the page just laggs out... maybe the server the forum resides on is just overworked...

Here are my observations re rapid v slow postings. I have a DSL connection.
1. An initial postings also goes within 10 seconds on the first try.
2. I find that as a rule, that a response to short posts - with 3-5 replies - a reply goes within 10 seconds.
3. Longer posts - with 8-15 replies - sometimes take 3-8 "re-submit reply" tries over a 25 minute period to reply to.
4. I also noted, that the speed in posting replies varies, depending on say of week, holidays and time of day.
In summary: The time it takes to post is unpredictable!
5. Best time - usually - to post is 6 am or 11 pm EST.
PS:
Now it's 12:30 am and I tried 3 times during the last 15 minutes.
It's frustrating! Want to go to bed! :o
