OT? As slow as it is, it's about the only topic.

They're was a sticky about the problem but it vanished. Another might be helpful. Or not.

It's there. Doh!

Somebody installed a Ford engine in the server, so it's running a lot slower than usual.

Bummer. Soon as you upgrade to "fiber" the host site switches to dial up.

So, when will it be back up to proper speed? Why can't a projected "fix" date be released? In my business (running 4 radio stations) people tell me when - normally within hours, if not minutes - "repairs" will be completed. I don't think that's too much to ask here.

Yeah, you'd think they'd make an announcement about the problems.
