    I never log out, so never need to log in.

    The issue is not logging in and out, DW, but being able to post anything once I'm in.

    It rarely happens, but just now I had some trouble posting on LitNet. The error message showed me that my post had reached a cloud in Miami? but from there to LitNet there was an interruption. I suppose there are several of this "Cloud stations" inside and outside US and some of them get overloaded at times.

    Once again I have been unable to post for just over a day. It was the same as the last two times: when I could sign in normally (using the box at the upper right) I could not post or even write in a dialogue box. It's pretty frustrating.

    Pompey, it may be due to the high usage of the internet where you live. My guess is that if you are on the west coast of USA the quietest times may well be in the small hours. Hope you find a way of bypassing these problems!

    Thanks, DW. I live on the East Coast (near Boston) by the way.

    Another 24 hour freeze on posting. It's gone from frustrating to tedious.

    I had this problem some months ago until I changed one of the electric plugs.
    Now it is usually ok, unless it is very windy outside.

    I use Wifi exclusively (I have an IPad), so it's not the plug. I haven't recalibrated for a while. Maybe I'll try that.

    To Admin and Moderators

    I donīt have any problem in entering the site, but in the last days the site has been very slow when I try to post something. The result usually is double posts. Iīve seen other members complaining too and it may be a cause of member evasion.
    So please, it would be very nice if something could be done about it.

    I have had problems accessing LitNet for the last 3 or 4 days. My subscriptions list has changed appearance and the advanced option just does not work. I cope by copying and pasting the url, which is at least clickable, but for longer posts I have abandoned posting anything at all. I look back in to see if it has improved almost daily, but it hasn't.

    It improved briefly for a day or two but is now back to what it was previously. Very tedious. We have a spammer back, check the first page, someone is spamming using UK regions as post headers - Bedfordshire, Plymouth, Worcester, Bournemouth, Lincoln.

    I will wait until this is sorted before posting on "From my bookshelves" thread.

    The spammer seems under control, but it seems that a roboter also entered the site opening a nonsense thread in the poetry page. If it is only that, it can be ignored.
    I find it much easier to post today than yesterday, DW.

    Site ok now, but difficulty again in posting in the morning. Something should be done about it as the number of regular participants is dwindling steadily.
