General Chat

Meeting Called to Order Brothers and Sisters - I have sent a very long email to the bosses and this morning received my reply.......

This is the response from GR: Thanks for your email. I have spoken to our technical team. There is currently alot of work going on with regard to the Friends Reunited. This has a huge impact on our servers and sadly does affect the performance of all sites. This work should be completed by the end of the week and the speed of the site should be back to normal. I am sorry for any inconvenience.

Thank you, Sister. Sounds similar to one I had before. Joy PS I am not interested in FR though.

Thanx Jacq....mother of all sisters & brothers..lol We'll see...!!!! :)

They could have at least mentioned GR rather than FR!! Looks like a standard reply to me. GGRRRRR! Lynne

It isn't the same as the one I ahd last week, that just said theyw ould look into what was causing the problem. i feel a bit aggrieved though that all the sites have to suffer because of the work on one site. With all the subs from all the sites why can't they work independantly. i am a member of FR but rarely go on there and will stop after this years subs runs out as I don't get anything from it.

I still think they are trying to push the Connections site.....hope they don't want to get rid of the Chattier boards here!!!!! Jacquie xxx

Why couldn't they have admitted a problem earlier - kept fobbing me off with 'can't recreate the problem' or 'they have looked into it and I shouldn't get any more problems now'. Will be burning my hanging basket containers later in protest! Anna

Well thank you Jac, but we shall have to wait and see! Do not disband the Union yet, I have a few more tatty bras I can burn....XX BC

Oh, don't worry BC.....the Union will always be there for those that need us!!!!! Into Battle brothers and sisters........ Jacquie xxxxx

Oleander, well done at least you havegot them to admit its their problem. They tried to tell me it was due to my set up. Incidentally Nanna Anna is what you are calling hanging baskets the same as BC calls tatty old bras?lol Rupert PS keep the canoes loaded however, we may need them yet Rupe

..... deep in my heart I do believe that we shall overcome one day! :-) Joy

If that is the case, why can't they give us advance warning that work is being done on the servers and service could be restricted. At least we would know what to expect.

Well done sister, We are behind you all the way (except timewise). Ian
