I don’t know if it’s me or my computer or my internet connection or what, but my blogster visit today seems to be running really slow and kind of funky. Things take a long time to post or load and I almost seem “stuck” on certain pages…this is is not happening on other sites I’m presently at, just Blogster…how about you? Is your blogster running funky today?

It is Blogster. Has been running slow for several days and today is worse....

Okay, I thought it might be...it looks as if they are doing some more new "improvements" and what not...thanks for letting me Nota and have a great day!

I haven't even be able to report it as a bug.....

Have a great day also, dp.

Taking long naps between posts......

I know..I am starting to forget what I clicked on to read!

SLOW IS AN UNDERSTATEMENT!!! sorry didnt mean to shout...sigh....

I AGREE!!! LOL!

yeah, blogster is being a hoe bag big time.  Not that it ever worked great before, today is just that much worse...

Yesterday (weds.) is was running like hell but today (thurs) it seems to be doing much better...Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment, I appreciate it...happy Holidays!

YES!!!  and you're being very kind saying its slow, funky and a bit off. :)

Its been bad lately but todays much worse.  But glad its not just me.

I LIKE to think it's growing pains, not because they're flawed, but because they are working to improve the site...but man, I'm getting to feel like not hanging out here today...even giving stars is difficult!

Thanks for reassuring me that it's not only me...

I had a real struggle rating you....but I prevailed! lol

Thanks...yeah, it's like the site forgets that I'm doing something, sort of frozen...maybe it's this weather, it's cold and icy today...

lol....maybe the site wants a Christmas vacation.

LOL! Good point, we forget that there are people behind these pages who make it all work...

Nope, not just you.  And it's not frozen because of the cold and ice.  I'm in Florida, and mine is running just as you described.....  It makes me want to scream AAARRRGGGHHH and rip my hair out!

Very sloooooooooooooly.:)

Indeed...I wonder why?

no clue maybe blogster is tired. :)

yep...seems like so.

Know of any reasons why this happens Rica?

Only a few. It's a server thing. Like..one server not communicating with the other. hehehe. All it needs is a reboot....

Yup... slow for everyone as I've read... including mine... I see periods where it's running quicker but then goes back to running slow

Yeah, little spurts of quickness, but then it sort of freezes on me...but then wakes up and does what I was expecting it to do...Thanks for stopping by CO-Cowboy!

The spam is not being deleted either.....LONG Christmas party?

LOL!

Sure... glad to stop in... Merry Christmas!

And a Very Merry Christmas to you and yours as well!

Yes, mine has been running slow for several days, and I don't even get my notification's.

Weird, isn't it?

Thanks for letting me know it's not only me today...and if I don;t get a chance to tell you, Allie, Have a Very Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas To you as well, dphilip!

yeah...enjoy the day.

Thanks snuamah, you too, enjoy the day...

you are welcome...merry christmas to you.

Running slow--not sending notifications--sometimes taking so long to download it, and I, give up!

I'm about to do the same...maybe come back later.

I bet it is slow as molasses on Dec 22 because lots of kids are on holiday...loading things down

That's a good point, I didn't think about the extra traffic, thanks for stopping by and Have a Very Merry Christmas!

i tried!  I cleaned out old messages and as much junk as I could.  I had so many pages, I just knew it would speed up the whole site.  It didn't.  Does anyone know how to delete sent mail?  I keep getting an error.  dphilip, wishing you and your family a wonderful Christmas!  am

arkmm, you have to open them one at a ti9me and delete...a pain to do!~

Oh no!  There must be several hundred in there! All I want for Christmas is a "select all" , "delete all" feature, in case any of you happen to see Santa!

Let me look again-perhaps i missed something

I can't even delete them one at a time.  Some kind of bug.

Hi Arkmama - Hey, have you tried this?

Smiley-sw022

Have you told your keyboard you love it lately? {#flag.gif}

LOL!  I'm ready for that.  I submitted a bug report.  The first line said "Give your bug a title???????

I titled it :  (  Sir Icabug Crane)   Those tech people are going to hate me!!!!!!

LOL! They will not hate you as much as they did me when I put this up...

PLEASE stop adding things and fix the UGLY BUGS!

                          PLEASE?

That's a scary pic Nota!

Help!

LOL! It is better than a rat!

"True that..." as my teenage son would say...still no rats? Hooray!

OMG!  Nota, that opened up big in the middle of my page and I almost dumped my computer in the floor!  That should come with a warning!  Ewwwww! ROFL!  I am having trouble finding where I've posted.  Not ignoring anyone!

ROTFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I did all my "house-keeping" on my computer last night...it is fine. It's Blogster.

Me too, i thought it my computer, but it's not...

It has been horrific all day long/I have stayed away and even when here i am getting notices that are hours old!!!!

At least you are getting emails.  I quit getting them last night.  I thought I was an outcast until I went to my inbox!  LOL!  I went in and checked to see if it had got turned off.  It had not.  I redid it and saved changes.  Still no email notification.  I receive email from another blog, I joined, so it is not my server.

Karla, I heard Greta forum will be back up tomorrow.  I really don't miss it since I've met all these nice people here!

arkmm, It is a bug. Report it to the team and it MIGHT get fixed- LOL!

As to the sent mail I can't find a way except one by one

I appreciate your making the effort to leave a comment Karla, me too...I stayed away all afternoon but even now, in the evening, still kind of funky...

Thanks for the compliment...there are a lot of nice people here, aren't there?

I think like most of clunkiness of blogster, it's something they will out grow and remedy as soon as possible...Thanks for stopping by to comment!

I completely agree!!! The place needed a house cleaing... It turned me into a complete Smiley-angry021I have really come to like this place. People aren't rude here or overly gratuitously potty mouthed... I haven't missed GW since I left back in Oct.

It doesn't matter to me if GW goes back online. They need a  exterminater there big time! Besides, I LOVE having the power to block people I've nothing in common with or don't want to converse with here... The filtering here is fantastic.

OMG!  That troll is hilarious!  You sure put a lot into your posts!  ROFLMAO!!!!!!!

Yeah - I was trying to figure out who most looked like this... It's a toss up between Bumpy, PJ and Annie I guess... LMAO

Hopefully it will clear!!!!

I do not either/plus KK has set something up also and I have been stopping there as well/good articles etc as only Kathryn can

OMG  I had a Troll doll similar but with different color hair back in the day/and I mean back in the day  lol

Things seem to be running better (for me) on Thursday....how about you?

Found you Karla!  LOL!  I'll catch on eventually!  KK does stay on top of things, wish they could have found a way to do it here!

I thank you all for being so welcoming, dphilip!

I know but she advised it had something to do with her system/but I do like alot of the bells and whistles here for sure.  Also the people are quite swell!!!!

I am in much better shape and I know at times it is my impatience with stuff  LOL

Have a Merry Christmas in case I miss you before then

"Swell" what great old word that needs to be used more often...Like, it was/is swell of you to come by today, Karla, things are running a bit better today, aren't they? I'm serious, I like "swell", it makes me smile!

{#dancing6.gif}

What do you expect from an old broad but an old word???? LOL  My daughter cringes at times when i speak she is always amazed at things I come up with!!!!!   But if it fits and it does/it is a perfect description for all I have crossed paths with here.

My kids are the same way when i say "Far Out" or "Right On"...I'm going to start using "Swell" and "Hot Diggity" too!

BTW, are you in the Philly area? My father lived in Bucks County for decades and I love it there...

Oh I have a whole repertoire of sayings that drives mine crazy along with my music taste. 

 

I am not in the Philly area now/originally from So Jersey but when i was there Philly teams were all we had/plus right across the River.  I am in FL now and have been for some time but old habits die hard and rooting for the bums is one of them.  Bucks County is great/spent some time in New Hope in my misspent youth summers but also have been there to see Washington's Crossing amongst other historic  things there.

Ah, to be in Florida on a cold day In Chicago...Thanks for letting me know, I appreciate it! My dad, who is from Chicago originally, remained loyal to Cubs while he was there but he loves the Flyers...too bad Chicago beat them, he-he...Cool, you know New Hope too, I loved shopping there.

It IS still running unbelievably slowwwwwwww. Although the net has been slow generally, it does seem to be slowwwwwwww'r here... Smiley-shocked028

Hahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!! @ the guy at the puter, I know how he feels!

Blogster is slow on my end too dphilip!!

LOL! Co-Cowboy!  That happened to me when Obama came on my TV today!  I was screaming at the tv the whole time!

Oh my this graphic is awesome! It fit my mood yesterday with respect to the blogster experience...Today (thursday morning) it seems to be running much better...but it's early, we'll see, right?

It seems the system needed to be re-booted, from what little I have learned...thanks for taking the time to chime in sally and if I don't catch you before the holiday, Have a Very Merry Christmas!

Yes it seems to be moving faster now. And Merry Christmas toyou and yours dphillip!

I was barely able to get on here at all yesterday and forget commenting! Seems like it's doing much better this morning.

Yeah, much better today...

I skipped Blogster yesterday and have a busy day today. Going to hockey game tonite, so I guess I'll be catching up on notifications tomorrow and over the weekend.  It was so slow yesterday that it wasn't worth the effort. I'm not a patient person!

I agree... yesterday was pretty miserable... I'm not having quite the issue today thankfully... Hope yours is moving quicker too... {#basic-laugh.gif}

Yes, it's running much better for me today, thank you...evidently their re-booted the entire site last night or something...Have a wonderful day!

I agree...I did not have the patience yesterday either...but it's running fine today!

If I don't catch you before the weekend, Have a Very Merry Christmas!

MERRY CHRISTMAS D...

My computer may be the culprit for me, as every site I've gone to and everything I do on my computer is agonizingly slow.  Maybe I'll get a new computer with my income tax refund!

I was thinking about that same thing with our tax money....Mac or PC?

I've been doing some comparison shopping on my computer here and I'm still undecided.  I've never had a Mac before so I don't know all the particulars about them.  I've seen good deals on both so I may have to post about that and ask peoples opinions on both.  I'll start with you dp, which do you prefer?

I have a Dell laptop now but I am seriously considering the Mac Probook for my next machine...now they have dual core processors that will run my windows based work, so I won't lose anything and I am so impressed with my brother's laptop (he has the Mac), so that's what I've been thinking about...maybe you should post a poll about it?

Great idea.  How do you post those polls on your blog dp?  I've seen those and I think they're really neat.

Go to post a new post, there are some selections there...look for the one that says "post a poll" and it's easy as cake...I just posted one in fact!

Thanks!  I may yet shed that 'Techno-Tard' title one of these days!
