Chat has been going thru and update process ----now I do not know about all the Tech stuff ---but I do know sometime when I update software on my own computer it causes other problems that I have to track down and fix---I am thinking that the same issues occur when the site --either chat or the forums are upadated -----no I do not have these problems at other places I go ---but then again ---they do not try to update to the latest software and faster servers ---they do not have nearly the traffic that this site has ---you have to remember it also handles millions of people reading stories on the main story page ---no thousands as in those other sites ---and that is the reason for the updates and moves to bigger servers ----Tiger cares and is trying to keep things stable ----and spending alot of time and money on this site

all I can say is this is one of the few sites where the owner cares ---and the admin and mods care about the members ----

so I say thank you Tiger and thanks to all the mods and super mods and the other admin of this great site ----and thanks to the members who put forth the effort to contact me when there are problems so we can try to track them down
