Are you perhaps taking too long to type it in? You have a maximum of 20 minutes to get your post typed and posted. For the most part posts seem to be taking the first time for me but man edits especially on the Classifieds are nearly impossible.

We're still working on a solution. Matt has an idea he's going to try and hopefully it will prove to be the answer.

So the trick is to prepare it OFF-line, in Word or whatever.  Do all your thinking, typing, editing there ... taking as much time as you need. SAVE it. Then when you're ready, COPY it, open the GB forum item you want and PASTE it in. This has worked for me (although sometimes it hasn't).

So, why is it, "You can't post another message so soon after your last" when it's my FIRST POST OF THE DAY?
I'm just trying to help a fellow Graybearder.

That one Shorty I don't know. We're gonna get the latest version of the software for our database soon. I'm hopeful that will fix it all. Matt tried to call last night but got put on hold for 30 minutes and he is not a patient person. He don't wait for no one for long.  :eek:  He will try again tonight.

For what it is worth Robert I have had problems posting on GB's site for over two weeks. Most of the time I get the white page with the cannot find server ect. some times I get that and a reply I posted will appear other times I cannot post a first time post at all. Be patient I am sure when they get it fixed it will be better. Jim
