Forum Glitches

Has anyone else besides me been experiencing glitches with the forum here lately?

I've noticed that I'm having trouble posting pics.

Also I sometimes get this "Data Error" of death widow stating that the site is not responding and the owners have been notified.

Then there is the actual forum itself. I check to see who's all online, and it's just me. BUT I know better cause there are posts going up. So when I click a name, their online button is lit. (I know their online, they just posted.)

Is the site being worked on or fixed or am I imagining everything and/or fell into some weird nightmare? Hopefully the prior.

They are swapping to a new hosting service shortly due to the inconsistencies of the present host.

Also they have had a large number of security breaches since being with this host, that's what has caused the outages.

Hopefully once the database is transferred to the new host everything should be honk dory.........hopefully.

LOL - "guests who aren't there."

I too have experienced trouble for several days, a number of different things. I'm sure once the new server is in place, we'll all be back to normal. Did I just say that? Normal?

No disrespect to the likes of Fred and Dave, who I'm sure are endlessly frustrated by such security breaches, but I do find some humour in the pathetic nature of hacking a gardening forum. Reminds me of the OSCOV forum that was hacked a while back with the main page replaced with a "YOU HAVE BEEN HACKED" banner.
Stick it to the man, Buddy!
