Wow, im so excited to be back! Right now, i think it is slower than usual as well. Another problem is that it dosent show the topics that are new when i log on...i dont know why. Other than that, its going all good! Hello everyone once again.

Yeah! It's great to be back-- I was having nothing to do w/o this place, though I have noticed a definate slowness, however my computer never loaded this site very quickly. Hope it speeds up, but no big deal!

*jumps up and does a dance*

Yay!!! It's good to be back!!! To be honest I was getting quite impatient :oops: But,well, now that BaO is back online it's all good.

I like the new background. It had me confused for a moment because it looks like the main page.

It's wierd, everyone's saying how things are slow, but it seems faster to me. Maybe it's the computer I'm on. (I'm posting while at work)

It's good to see everyone again. Great work, Paul :grin:

Hee hee - sorry for the confusion with the front page, tiggirl. I added the bricks to the forum to make the forum's design fit in with the rest of the site...must have worked :grin: :)

What types of problems with posting and logging in are occurring? I've noticed a delay when pressing some submit-buttons...is this the type of thing?

Thanks Marcus - the same is happening to me too. Will look into it. :)

I've found that if I login at the bottom I don't get the new posts yet if I click the "login to check your PM's" button they do..., also I can't stay logged in and I'm not sure why as I've not changed my comp's setup from the old setup where I just clicked BaO and Voila, here, logged in and ready to go.
