death tribble Posted March 1, 2013 Report Share Posted March 1, 2013 I don't like what I see so far of the 'upgrade'. And where was the warning about this ? I though it was another crash when I tried to log in yesterday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tkdguy Posted March 1, 2013 Report Share Posted March 1, 2013 Still a lot of kinks to work out in the upgrade, it seems. It's running slowly for me, but that may be my connection, which has been spotty at best lately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemming Posted March 2, 2013 Report Share Posted March 2, 2013 Change Bad! However, the site has been slow since the hackers were attacking, so this speed doesn't seem any worse than usual. Still unbearable. The new format, I am not fond of and the speed issue is making me less likely to try to figure it out. tkdguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L. Marcus Posted March 2, 2013 Report Share Posted March 2, 2013 Tkd, go to the bottom of the page, click on the Page 1 icon, then go to the top of the page, and enter the last page in the Page field. Works in Chrome, at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L. Marcus Posted March 3, 2013 Report Share Posted March 3, 2013 Yeah. But try to see this as an opportunity to practice your patience, maybe? ^^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zen Archer Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 Still slow for me too. Last time I was on, it was taking more than 10 minutes for a post to land. Using a computer at the library right now just to see, and it is much better here, so probably my system more than anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tkdguy Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 What an awful night I had! I went to bed early because the storm kept knocking out the power. Then I got a Charley horse on my right leg. I got another one on my left leg a half-hour later. My legs are still stiff right now. I hurt my forefinger tugging on a blanket. It shouldn't even have hurt because it's not something that causes pain. But it did, and it was unusually painful for several minutes. Maybe there's some joint damage. And at 4 am, after I had just settled down, my cat threw up on the carpet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
death tribble Posted March 7, 2013 Report Share Posted March 7, 2013 Something is going to cost me about 2 and a half times what I thought it would and it would help if when you send an e-mail to a company about it it is answered before 3 days are up. 3 working days.

L. Marcus Posted March 7, 2013 Report Share Posted March 7, 2013 "#¤%&/!!! Seems to be really tough for me to get a student loan this term. Darn bureaucraticists, changing rules on me ...

L. Marcus Posted March 7, 2013 Report Share Posted March 7, 2013 It's the bit about changing the rules that bothers me, but that's not the fault of the people over at CSN (Centrala studiestödsnämnden [the National Board of Student Aid], the authority that handles government student loans and aid) -- the fault (if it can be called such) is with the people over at Umeå U's med school, who decided to change how student credits are counted from one term to the next. The change ought to be awesome for most students, but it has me caught in an economic vise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoldenAge Posted March 9, 2013 Report Share Posted March 9, 2013 ARRRGGGHH!!! I've never posted in this thread as I am usually far from grumpy. But this new forum has driven me here today. Hero forums are the place I park my computer. As a GM I use them all the time and often solicit help from other forum members... Today, it's all I can do to stay here long enough to post this gripe. I can't believe how bad this is! I feel totally lost and frustrated!!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zen Archer Posted March 9, 2013 Report Share Posted March 9, 2013 I thought my car was leaking brake fluid, so I took it in to get checked. Turns out it's only leaking oil. I say "only" because the mechanic didn't even offer to fix it, which I take to be the universal symbol for "just buy another car, already". On the plus side, I discovered my current car battery had been working fine for a good nine years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xavier Onassiss Posted March 11, 2013 Report Share Posted March 11, 2013 Daylight savings time sucks. My not-girlfriend is cranky. (Nothing in particular, just generally down.) This forum's software "upgrade" is driving me up the wall. I just spend $500 on a new ignition system (the whole shebang: coil, plugs, wires, etc) for the Xavier Onassis-mobile. That's money I could have used for a badly-needed new set of tires. The old tires do NOT look good at all. I owe state and federal taxes; no refund this year. I'm running behind on work, as well as my writing. My efforts to assemble a gaming group in Evansville, Indiana have once again failed miserably. "Old school" gamers bug the crap out of me. And some guy came in for a job interview at my office yesterday with a big ugly "SS" tattoo on his neck. Other than that, everything's just spiffy.
