mmmh good thread - thing about site slowness is it's patchy.

For me XP-e' is fast at home with ADSL but was almost as fast before when I had 56k. XP-e' is v. slow at work and connection there 90k +.

Others I know have similar findings...

As for site losing power - perhaps, perhaps not. If you go away for a few days (hours!) it easy to lose track of the flow - I have a bit & U can blame xsiv' for that

I think this site is great and its always been like that

PS: The Invision smilies rock

I suppose that this site (and the people that make it work) should be supported in more ways than just greetings and adulations. I for one would be prepared to pay a small monthly contribution so that those that are devoting their time and effort get paid something in the quest for knowledge or learning.

What I suggest as an idea is the following: -

1. All members that can afford it, pay a voluntary contribution of $10 a month by whatever means are available, or contribute hardware etc.
2. No individual whether they contribute or not is treated differently from any other person/member.
3. The account that holds the cash (donations) is a registered charity (you can then claim back all the local taxes etc) this could then be almost self-financing.
4. Your site rules and administration already conform to this standard so no changes need to be made.

What do you think?

It’s so easy to criticise and not so easy to solve problems. I will contact who I know for their help who knows what may happen. But it must remain independent with no commercial ties.

Good ideas!

Very noble thoughts Dave Holbon. I have talked to waddy before about the team members making contributions for the benefit of the site. (I will not speak for him) He does not want to take things to that point. I can understand his thoughts on that. This site started as a free resource for people with XP issues and I think he wants it to stay that way.
