Can't send PM's

This is a good place to drop general and weird news, entertainment, and general show prep material that might be interesting to air talent or producers. Hot dog threads ALWAYS welcome.

Can't send PM's

Post by Greg Goodfellow »

Guys, I wasn't sure where to post this, but my PM's are constantly timing out. Can anyone help a feller out?

If I try to post anything that takes over 20 seconds to compose, the board tells me I have "timed out".

For now, I'm relegated to composing in Microsoft Word, then doing a quick cut and paste so I can post something.

Lester???!!!

Same issue Greg was having. If you're feeling brave, and not too skittish about security, the next time it happens, open up a command prompt and type:

tracert wvbroadcasting.net and post the results here. (You can edit out the first couple of IP's if you'd like.)

I'm not having a problem, and Greg later reported another website he went to was doing the same thing. I'm wondering if the two of you have a similar network path.

Hope this helps, Lester.
I might as well be looking at Egyptian heiroglyphics.
