Hey guys....
I know this is off topic but I'm going to throw it out there!
I'm having a really hard time accessing DS lately. This has been going on for about two weeks. My computer is so slow in connecting to DS....
Every other site I follow gives me quick access... so it can't be my computer!
When I do get in.... (I just leave the computer for a while and tend to errands and when I get back, I'm connected) .... and i want to give a hug or respond to a discussion, it take forever and I just get frustrated and eventually leave the site!
Sometimes i don't even bother getting onto DS.... and I usually post everyday on a weight loss group I belong to.
**** Is anyone else having this problem?

I do a lot of "parallel processing" on DS. For example, I like to send hugs to everybody who has posted on the weigh in thread. So I open it up, then open up hugs for all new posters on the thread (if their profiles are not private) in their own tabs. Then I go back and read what each person actually posted before typing the hug.
And when I go to logon to DS I find that the first page loads quickly, but after I fill in the user name and password stuff I go look at the weather or news before coming back.
I'm worried about the people that need this place for major support. What happens if someone doesn't get the support this place provides and something happens to them?
PepperMan..You're a CL...do you have any pull?
DS is a WYSISYG place (What You See Is What You Get). There are no promises made that the peer advice given here is valid, nor is up time guaranteed.
Pepper... funny you should mention the 'hugs' thing! I wanted to give you a hug for your weight loss last week and I just couldn't get it going! I gave up and tried another time to join in on a discussion and that failed too.
It's too bad. I was used to the quick replies I could give and get!
