I do see Spiritwarrior's point, it's really annoying that the site goes down so often, but I do realize it cant be helped at the moment. Sometmes I'll write a post of 25-30 lines and hit 'submit' only to get a 404 Error and have to re-write the whole thing. Maybe it would help if there was a way of somehow restricting access to non-members - often I notice there are, say, three members in a given forum, and ten guests. The latter are therefore eating up most of our bandwidth.
As far as donations go, I'm absolutely wiped out already this month. It's so depressing.
