He's "workin' on it" The server is over loaded. Too many people are geocaching we're going to have to lay some of you off. We'll be starting with any cacher that has more posts than finds.

Ummm, I'll be right back. I have to go caching now. Whoooosh..........

[+dkcjkasharp]

Ok!! Got to go do some more caching. C-Ya.

[+Barefoot]

Many of us have been suffering from the same problem.

It's been the subject of some discussion in chat.

 

That's it.

From now on when anyone looks at my GPS'r and asks "Wwhat is that?", I'm gonna look at it and say "It's a radiation meter. OH OH It just pegged! Run for your life!"

I've had the same problem. And it was especially annoying today when I was trying to submit a new cache for approval!

No, no no......you've got it all wrong.......the FORUMS are working FINE. It's the main site that's down.........so we're going to start "laying off" those who have less finds than posts........
