Why has the forum come to a snail's pace?

Thanks, job. I know you give an enormous amount to so many through your volunteer work here.

Should I email Virginia? I almost did the other day but wasn't sure if she was the right one. I've been trying daily to log on through my phone and the same message pops up. I wonder if there is something wrong with the mobile version? I do remember this same thing happening last year and one of you in-the-know folks talked to the staff and it was fixed.

The mobile version works fine with my Android devices using Chrome so it may be a Safari only issue. Or possibly an issue just on your own device. Difficult to tell. You could try other sites that use the same software such as the "Mount Whitney Zone"

Here's the kicker, the ones that stand out in my mind were not women. They were all new guys that showed up for advice. I always thought men could take it, but, go figure.

LOL - I like to think that many of the men who come here are fixers who are looking for the user manual to a wayward spouse that will get them the fix for their spouse that they want. I certainly was.

There is also a lot of competition for eyeballs in this market these days and the original community splintered and refocused on different nexuses. I've seen it happen in other online communities. It's amazing how passionate boating people can get I can think off the top of my head of at least 3 different online communities that have their roots here. Undoubtedly there are many more.
