why dont you do a search on this subject of bandwith etc and you will see this is an ongoing issue that cristian and i are aiming to sort out asap.
thankfully some members of the board are nice enough to offer their assistance instead of shit criticism.

Hey man, didn't want to offend anyone, i just find it annoying, when i try and jump onto another post and cant post straight away-ish, most forums have a 30 sec limit, which is fair enough...
Having been admin on a board I know that spamming can be a problem....
And the bandwidth thing, i have no knowledge of your on going problems, so don't assume i do..... after all it isn't my problem...
So if i offended then I'm sorry......
You must have guessed by now that most of us Glasgow based guys are most of the time just up for a bit of banter, which for some may be misconstrued........
If you try and get a quote for online car insurance and it doesnt work you get annoyed, that is all, I'll just be more patient in future......

Whatever year it is, it's a pretty crap thing to do really - considering this is a free service that clearly costs money to run. So why don't you just kick back and enjoy what's on offer.
If not, as you say there's plenty of other forums that offer speed of service that you desire - why not head over to them - or maybe you like our scintillating company...

well it seems to be your problem as you are moaning about it.
the general gist is :
the people that no-future use to host this forum charge stupid money if the server serves up so much data . and then no-future have to fork out for this.
i believe cristian is looking into moving servers but that requires time and effort.

i think its a bit harsh of anyone to say to smartie if u dont like it lump it or go to another forum or even start up yer own forum.. he has a genuine gripe and im sure all he is looking for is a explanation as to why he cant post sooner..
not a backlash of members jumping on the bandwagon with shneid comments.
to be honest i have found it iratating when u cant post faster, but i know why and accept it.. smartie didnt!

scott there has been loads of threads about the bandwidth and the server busy problem.
no schnied comments from me, just pointing out that this is a free service for the users besides no-future who are paying for hosting.
its like going to a soup kitchen and complaining that there isn't enough margarine to go on the slice of bread.
its free. whats the complaint?

looking back at yer post i do notice that u actually gave a explanation as to why its slow to reply.. i know there av been loads of posts about bandwidth problems, but what im saying is that i know and u know cos we post and read here regularly but smartie obvously didnt and there av been a few out of order replys to his comments.
i also appreciate the fact that no future is free and i dont av a complaint about the forums ability.. well apart from i cant hardly see were my typnig right now... however ive never been on any pay for forums b4 or seen any.

29th March 2005, 20:50
yeah fair enough scott - dunno why i posted a reply to you, as i realised i didnt actually make any out of order comments.
i have seen some pay only forums.
and i wish the cursor would be visible too.

1. notice that in my post i said 'do a search...' i certainly didnt assume that you knew about our problems. but i asked you to do a little research. to be honest, i dont care that there is 60 second limit, that the server is busy or any of those things. it pisses some of you off, so we will sort it out. the only thing i care about is that we are spending too much money, more than we can afford, unnecessarily.
2. your thread was nothing to do with good natured glasgow banter.
3. the analogy between using this board and getting online car insurance is weak.
we are aiming to sort all the problems out. spandex and decadnids have very kindly offered to help us. it means moving server.

If one dares to criticize even a single tenet of his animadversions, one is promptly condemned as detestable, soporific, pusillanimous, or whatever epithet he deems most appropriate, usually without much explanation. Like a verbal magician, Smartie knows how to lie without appearing to be lying, how to bury secrets in mountains of garbage-speak.

Quite, it is more to do with Smarties deep-seated lack of respect, which has culminated in the bitter exchange of words that could have been so easily avoided. Loves, let’s try to remember we all only have one life to live. Let’s not throw it in the Fires of hatred to smoulder in the envelopment of heated despair.

the thing is in a forum you are sort of addressing everyone, so if you post a topic its like you standing up in a pub and shouting to everyone about your issue, and i am sure some of the people in the pub will come out with other comments etc.
anyhow, 60 seconds - could be reduced to say 40 seconds.

it was aimed at Katie, i would have posted it quicker, but I'm not going to go into the reason as to why that wasn't possible, as I would be grossly wrong of me to point out the glaringly obvious....
