    CMP Forum

    What is going on with the CMPicon forum, its often very slow and times out. Thier server doesnt seem to be able to handle the volume. I cannot believe they dont purchase a decent server for thier program.

    Sorry if this is the wrong forum but I find this unbeliveable, guess thats why Im here

    Sometimes I just give up rather than wait and wait. I wish more people would come over here or to Joustericon.

    From what I can see, they upgraded from very simple forum software to pretty complex forum software that is much more drive-intensive. I don't think they upgraded the server, and the result was a very slow system. I'm sorry about that, because it is a great place to discuss their products and delivery system.

    I see many posters here that used to be on CSP before it went down. I know that there was a lot of sniping and name calling and the rest of the things some egotistical people do behind the keyboard but I haven't seen it lately. Yes the traffic being down is one reason but I first started with CSP and I'll be darned if a few idiots will make me leave. It is all about learning and helping other learn about Garands. Rant mode off.

    Could you elaborate on what you mean by "stuck their knife deep in the back of Milsurps, ..."?

    Hi.

    It has been quite a while since I have been on any of the forums other than the CMPicon site and I am hopeful that I will be seeing a lot of the good information here that was freely shared in the old days.

    +1 on THAT!

    BTW- The CMPicon started their forums primarily as a service to their customers, and they have grown from there. It's unfortunate that at times their server is slow, but I fully understand if the CMP doesn't want to invest in additional computer equipment to support the forums. It's an expense that has minimal ROI, IMHO.
