More and more often lately I'm finding an inability to read and/or post on this site. Click a link, and it MIGHT switch to the next page after a 30 second+ wait. Might never happen. Yesterday was particularly bad, I attemped 8 separate times to create this post and had to bail every time because it just locked up the browser. Sometimes I get a "failed to load" screen, sometimes "exceeded concurrent process" screen, sometimes it just sits there with the whirly circle spinning and nothing ever happens even after a bathroom break.

I am 100% appreciative and aware of the fact this is an unpaid deal and handled by probably ONE very dedicated volunteer, so please don't jump down my throat...but I wonder if the site would get more traffic than it does now, if it simply worked properly and consistently when links and buttons are clicked.

Somehow I doubt I'm alone in this, as I do not believe it to be a problem on my end. Do some of you have the same problem?

I participate in a number of other forums for snowmobiling, boating, local interest, etc and I surf the web quite frequently, and run a business from my computer. FGF seems to be the ONLY site I have consistent problems with. Anyone know why, or how it might be easily repaired without too many volunteer hours destroyed? I'm not IT savvy and unfortunately cannot help with offering a suggested solution. Just wondering if it could be a simple as needing to clean up and delete some of the 4 year old classified ads, etc to free up some capacity? Or is there a virus or something hogging up the server that supports this site? Whatever it might be, I do feel it is worthy of looking into.

Thanks for consideration. And thanks for keeping this site alive. Even if it's a bit old and slow to fire sometimes, so is my car...and I still like it LOL!
