    From Satellite Talk to a Thriving Community: SatelliteGuys Turns 20!

    I can't believe 20 years have Passed! I still remember being really upset at that other forum for banning you since you did all the work, and the guy running that other forum basically did nothing. I joined this forum on the first day, and it has been my favorite online forum ever since. Thanks!

    An Important Note About The Ads

    It might help to get more people signed up if you post that lifetime memberships are available on the home page, or maybe at the top of each sub-forum page? I don't normally check out the support center page every day. I might have missed that the lifetime membership was available again if I...

    An Important Note About The Ads

    If you bring back the lifetime membership, I would be interested. I agree with dare2be. Why not just open it up now and run the promotion until the middle of January. That way, more people will have the chance to sign up. The last time you ran the lifetime membership, I missed it.

    Looks like the Firewall Burped

    Thanks for letting us know what happened. Nice to know that my problems connecting this morning were not due to a problem with my system.

    Trouble with search

    Search is working now. I haven't tried it since Saturday, so I'm not sure when it came back to life, but there is no problem now.

    Trouble with search

    The search function does not work. With Firefox, no matter what I search for, I get a white screen and the browser hangs. With Microsoft Edge, no matter what I search for, I get this error: HTTP 500 error That’s odd... the website can’t display this page The site may be under maintenance or...

    Welcome Home!

    After using the new board layout for a while now, I really like that all the Dish Network threads are consolidated into one forum. It is much easier to browse the Dish Network forum without having to mess with all the sub-forums, and with one forum, I don't miss out on any of the Dish...

    Welcome Home!

    I didn't notice it because I had already changed the Style to SatelliteGuys 2016. I'll have to check out your new darker version. Thanks! EDIT: I think that the darkened version is a nice improvement! I know that it is a personal choice, but I would like to see that scheme used on the 'list of...

    Welcome Home!

    Regarding the too bright issue that I mentioned earlier in this thread... While reading the forums, I realized that I could go to preferences and change the 'Style' to 'SatelliteGuys 2016'. That fixes the 'too bright in a darkened room' issue for me. A simple fix that was already there!

    Welcome Home!

    Thanks! Take your time Scott. It is not that bad.! This is still by far, the best site for satellite news, info, and help.

    Welcome Home!

    I like your Spring Cleaning. Good job! I like the new forum layout, and the site is a lot more snappy and quick (but I wonder if that is due to it being ad free for now). I realize that it is very subjective, but to me the new look is a little too bright. My only suggestion would be to make the...

    Change Your Password

    Mine said the same thing...something like 15546 days old!! After changing my password, I have to log in every time that I come back to this site. What cookies do I have to delete? All of the satelliteguys.us cookies, or just specific ones?

    Error after App update

    I too am getting this error every time that the satellite guys app starts up on my iPhone. Fortunately, as Scott said, it doesn't seem to affect me using the forum. I am also getting the same error with the AVS forum. Both forums use the same software and the apps were both updated at the same...

    Like & +1

    I also would vote for the Like system (or no Like system at all - even better). I do not like the Google +1 feature at all.

    Slow page loading cured by Firefox

    I posted a thread about the slow page loading problem back in April. No one else responded to complain so I thought that I was the only one having that problem. I don't think that any of the administrators here believed that this site was just about unusable for a lot of us using XP and IE8, but...

    Slow page loading cured by Firefox

    texasbrit, that is the same thing that I was experiencing. This site was just about unusable with XP/IE8, affecting both my desktop and my laptop computers. All other sites were fine. It is just this site that I was having a problem with. I even tried clearing all my temp files and cookies and...

    Slow page loading cured by Firefox

    For the last few months, this site was acting very slow for me. Frequently the browser would just sit there and take forever to load pages, and I had to select the refresh button or I would be sitting there forever. It was getting to the point where the site was becoming annoying for me. I am...

    Slow page loading

    I am using XP so I cannot use IE9. I am still seeing the same problems that I described in the first post. Since no one else is complaining about this, I guess that not too many others are experiencing this problem. Perhaps I will try a different web browser as was suggested.

    Slow page loading

    For the past couple of weeks the site has gotten very slow. The pages take a long time to load. When this happens, the status bar usually says waiting for...and it is usually some ad that it is waiting for. Sometimes it just hangs while waiting and I have to double-click on the refresh button to...

    The SatelliteGuys App

    Thanks for renewing the app. I use it a lot on my iphone. The app works great and it does not have the annoying page loading lag that I get when using IE8 on my computer.

    Slow page changes on satelliteguys.com

    Scott, I am still seeing the pausing/hanging issue, but only on the 1st forum page. (The link that says: 'Click here to join our friendly discussion forums'). If it helps, when IE8 got hung-up, the status bar said: Waiting for...

    Right now, the whole site is way faster than before, but best of all I am not experiencing the frequent hanging problems!

    Slow page changes on satelliteguys.com

    Scott, right now the web site is working great for me and is the fastest it has been in weeks!!! The problems that I was complaining about have disappeared. I hope everything stays like this!
