#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted January 25, 2004 Share Posted January 25, 2004 Hi.This is virtually the firstr time in 3 days I have been able to get into the MB or any other page at JWFAN.NET.Since firiday night every time i try to open a page it loads very...very...slowly, but ultimatly does not open at all.While every other site i visit runs perfectly fine.I use IE normally, and i've tested othere browsers today (Netscape, Opera, Mozilla) and i'm past deleting my cookies and temp internet files.Anyone have any idea what could cause only 1 site not to open, while evey other works fine?Although it's slightly better now, it still took me 15 minutes just to open a POST A NEW TOPIC window.Stefancos- suffering from JWFAN.NET withdrawl symptoms.

Morn 8 Posted January 26, 2004 Share Posted January 26, 2004 Ohh browser, pah, I doubt it, more likely to be a connection problem, so use a proxy server and you can access the site through the proxy server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted January 26, 2004 Author Share Posted January 26, 2004 Neil is only a moderator, and he owns a Mac, so he's the only help i would expect from him is a link to a site were I can buy an iMac.The reason for my troubles over the weekend, and the sudden dissapearance of those problems are a complete enigma to me, but right now i'm just glad that I can get into my own home again.Before it was usurped by Queen Renovia I Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rogue_Leader 2 Posted January 26, 2004 Share Posted January 26, 2004 Neil owns a Mac??Errrrr ..... never was into those. Especially being a PC gamer. The selection of games on Mac is appaling.

Mr. Breathmask 555 Posted January 26, 2004 Share Posted January 26, 2004 Argh... Yes, I had the same problem.

nja 0 Posted January 26, 2004 Share Posted January 26, 2004 I you're gonna knock macs, you're going to have to do better than that. GUI design and ease of use is what they're known for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hlao-roo 389 Posted January 26, 2004 Share Posted January 26, 2004 Unless you're novice microcomputer user (to whom the Mac has been historically more friendly), the ease of use probably depends on what you're used to. If, say, you'd memorized all the keyboard shortcuts for Windows XP, you'd probably find navigating MacOS a lot less natural....and, um, to tie this to John Williams, I wonder which operating system he uses... (assuming he e-mails and such). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If, say, you'd memorized all the keyboard shortcuts for Windows XP, you'd probably find navigating MacOS a lot less natural..And vice versa. I know a lot of Mac users who would be hopelessly lost on a PC. Familiarity issues aside, independant evaluations of both systems usually put macs on top- at least in this one area....and, um, to tie this to John Williams, I wonder which operating system he uses...
