The weather here has sucked for a few days so I've tried logging on here. Wow it totally bites! Nothing but problems for at least 3 days.

Exactly, server or hosting problem, not a browser problem.

I'm sure it's just a very small percentage that posts on a regular basis.

I've been seeing that page on post #25 for three days now.

Made a post about this earlier in the week , one of the mods came back and said it's a problem with the site owners ( Internet Brands ) and has been reported she's trying to get some info to relay back to us but I wouldn't hold your breath . Seems all their sites are having these issues not just ours they own everyplace on the error page we get so often .
