Bob, FWIW, I had three times yesterday when things stalled out for me on your site, but absolutely no problems today, so whatever tweaking you did has made a difference. If you can't put in an Ignore or Skip Poster function for a while, Matt's bending the ear of a couple of posters on Zeev's thread could keep things from getting out of hand. I noticed Zeev felt compelled to stop a schoolyard fight <g> today, and that is a true waste of his time. I see others have also complained about the "all caps, no content" poster. Hope Matt's talked to him already too. Maybe keeping a 3-post or 5-post a day limit would help, but so far Zeev's old SI thread is getting the abuse the last two days. A word to the wise. <g>
