Today (Tuesday) I deployed a new version of our message boards. I had a bit of trouble deploying so if you encountered an error on the site today, I apologize. All should be well now. The changes focused on making the various areas more consistent.
Message Listings...
When you view a list of posts, you can now see the first 100 or so characters of each post.
Page hits for a thread now show up in the left icons.
Poster image and name now appear "with" the post link. In the case where you see the starter and last post, both posters are shown with their post.
Lots of other minor changes too!
Enjoy! Let me know if you like the changes.

That pesky 503 error pops up now and then. It's almost always a very short server problem so just refresh (press F5).

This is a great website. You have some wonderful people out here. Keep up the good work.
By the way, the 503 error frequently means you are getting too many simultaneous hits on your website. I've had to move a few clients from hosting to dedicated servers or a virtual server.

Hi Mary,
Funny you should mention dedicated servers. Yesterday, Sunday, we completed our move to a dedicated server so now the website should be much more enjoyable to use. I was just getting ready to start a new thread and mention that. We are still optimizing the new server but we should be stable by the weekend. (Stable meaning we are done optimizing and securing.)

It didn't occur at all today but the next time it happens I'll try a refresh.
