Slow again!
It's not getting any smarter out there. You have to come to terms with stupidity, and make it work for you.

Speed seems OK these days.
But I have a question about PMs.
When I send a PM, it will sometimes stay quite long in the OUTBOOK and will be sent only after some time. This happens even if the person I PM is online.
And sometimes the process is very fast. What can explain that?

Hi CD
Your message stays in the outbox till the person accesses the message. Got it?

Sorry I am a bit slow today... You mean the person gets a notice immediately when I send it, but it will appear in my sentbox only when it was opened?

Yes Sir! Sometimes though when the site lags, new message alert may lag as well.

I see a little 'back to top' link just under my avatar that seems to have newly appeared. That helps a little.
