What’s happened so many times in our history is that we’re a victim of our own success. As more and more people register and get on line, we outgrow the capability of our servers, and then we have to look at a hardware upgrade or getting more or bigger servers. The trouble with doing that however is money, because upgraded hardware and more servers cost more money, and we already pay a lot of money every month for the servers and hardware we have, and it all comes out of Leif’s pocket. The advertising revenue we generate barely covers the server costs, and sometimes it doesn’t cover the server costs, so no one is making money from this website, and we’re all volunteers here, including me. Rachel has been a tremendous help with taking care of the servers, but like the rest of us, she has a real job that actually pays her a salary,
 so she can’t devote all her time to addressing these issues, but hopefully, we’ll be able to come up with a solution for the problems that we’ve been having.__________________

Thanks guys for trying to work on it. It's annoying and frustrating all together.

Thanks for the update. I'd rather see it down for a while to fix things then rush the fixes and end up not fixing anything
