I have noticed it too tonight. Today is my first day off of work in about 20 days and I have spent quite a bit of time on here. Yeah it seems slower at different times.

During the day it is a lot quicker. I guess everyone comes home from work and hops on. Too much love for the Vettes I guess.

I went for over a week and couldn't even get on the forum during the day. A few nights ago it was down for a couple of hours. I also get in the habit of copying my replies incase they time out.

I think this happens to me when I click on a smilie before the page has completely loaded. If I wait on the page to fully load it works correctly.
