There is your problem. Don't annoy your IT guys by bypassing their restrictions or they will plant pictures of "Marie and her Donkey" on your harddrive, and then you'll be in trouble ...

That is a quality bit of delegation Mark, Dilbert would be proud of you!

The forum works

Most of the time the posts are sensible and non abusive

Most of the time the posts are relevant and to the point

Most of the topics don't stray

The forum works

So on that basis, I assume you're happy to sail something
like a laser, where everything works...just about. But
could be done better???



i known its sad, but thats why more people still sail lasers than anything else.

I don't have a problem with its speed or functionality.

For me it works, I use the active topics link all the time
to see what's current.. so i say it aint broke so why try
fixing it?

The site has been slow at peak times - we're having a look at what we can do about that. It's tricky running site with 3.5 million page views per month on a limited budget...

No complaints other than speed, though thankfully it's not
quite as slow as our club website!
