Having trouble logging on to CHR-THREADS MERGED

[ford2custom]

I couldn't get in until just before 1:00 p.m. yesterday. I did the same as others, did a search for CHR and it still took me to domain name site. I thought maybe the site was closing. I just posted earlier that this is the best site on the net. I'm
hoping it does not shut down.

Well, it sure looks like the problem is pretty widespread. I hope the following comments don't come across as ungrateful, but I think it is important to say.

For some reason this site goes down way too often. Sometimes it is just a momentary thing........you try to log on and get a one-liner that says the site isn't available, but a little while later it comes up. And sometimes it goes down for a day or so. The "new server" or whatever it was that came from overseas (or wherever) was supposed to clear up the issues, but sometimes it seems worse now. I sort of hold my breath anytime I log on now, wondering if the familiar CHR logo will come up or if I will get some other screen, or a time-out notice.

My fear is that we are losing and going to lose members who become frustrated and who stop coming on. I get PM's from members pretty often, on here and on other sites, who are saying "what's up with CHR, I can't log on?" Some have indicated they have had it, and I see less participation or no participation from some of those members lately.

I think I speak for most of the membership when I say I love this forum. It is the first thing I check in the morning and the last thing I check before going to bed at night. But I have to say I rarely see any of the computer glitches on any of the other 4 or 5 forums I frequent that I see on here. Size doesn't seem to be an issue, some of them are very large and some are very small.


My comments are only meant in the most constructive way.
