    The blank white pages seem to be happening at regular intervals, like around 20 to 23 minutes after the hour and everything is back normal within 2 to 3 minutes. It's almost as though there's a service on the server that's restarting, probably not Apache, but maybe php, or some other child service.

    Just verified this. At 7:22PM EST it appears the webserver stopped responding, and eventually returned a blank white page. At 7:25PM EST it returned to normal.

    Is there a way (on my end) to make THIS forum appear larger? I'm not talking about some PC setting that will make ALL of my text appear larger - JUST THIS FORUM.
    This layout really, really, REALLY sucks ass. That's not a dig at Dan because he didn't design it - it's just truly horrible to try to read these "faded blues" and small text, and crammed thread titles.

    If you were trying to get rid of me, it's working. This is the only forum I follow "religiously", but I really can't take more than a minute or two of looking at it and I just go somewhere else.

    Maybe I'll get more done this way? Could be a good thing maybe.
    I called to check my ZIP CODE!....DY-NO-MITE!!!

    Dan, when you make it back. I've just verified this again in the 8:00 and 9:00 hours. It's going off around 22 minutes and returning around 26 minutes after the hour. Probably something you can track down in the server logs.

    This is the default style of the software. I'm sure he'll be making changes as he has time.

    Reponses today are s-l-o-w. Posting, navigating, etc.

    After kicking the tires a while, I agree the basic screen layout stinks. Not enough contrast IMO.
    I'm sure it will look more inviting in time.

    Still not receiving e-mail notifications.
    Nothing new, but I had hoped it would resolve itself.
    FUCK BIDEN

    Yeah, I stepped out and checked back on this thread at around 9:23 and nothing was working - just blank white pages.

    So what was decided regarding subscriptions? I assume since I cant get into "the club" my recently renewed silver membership is in limbo.

    I'm another one that don't like the NEW default colors. Not enough contrast for my color-blindness. Never knew I was color blind until I joined the military.

    can"\'t seem to determine what messages I've already read as I could in the old version.
    Never mind I got it now.
