Your Time Has Expired!

10/01/2014 8:10 PM

Yes, waiting for pages to load.

Please extend that 15-minute edit window to something more accommodating to the site's speed, say, to half an hour. You know, enough time to give that edit box time to load, the user a few seconds to fix a typo and submit the correction, then wait for the Preview page to load and press Submit and then wait an interminable period of time for the revised comment to appear?

Just fixing one typo took 15 minutes. This is ridiculous.

You (or someone else on the same network) has done this operation too many times.
You will have to try again tomorrow.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

Oh, that one's a real winner, too. Imagine if your brain told your heart that it has "done that operation too many times and so please give it a day or so before resuming."

That would thin the herd a bit, yes?

My heart never listens to my brain anyway.

I'm not sure why it's taking 15 minutes for pages to load on your device. I haven't noticed any decline in the speed of the site.

Has anyone else experienced a similar problem?

Report:
After posting the copied OP, hit the EDIT button, then started timer.
Time required to open edit window, make a (predetermined) edit, submit and approve, reopen the comment took me 9 seconds.

Just another example of what makes living in the Cowboy Capitol of America such a great deal: Advanced Technology.

Btw, did I mention that just last week here they discovered fire? And just yesterday that neanderthal at Radio Shaft learnt what a 'ribbon cable' is. Hey, it's progress...

Give us a few more millennia here in Colorado's Very Own Third World Country and we'll be right up there with Cheyenne!

Colorado! That explains everything.

"Not I," to quote someone recently. Now, a margarita? That's different.

I visited my son in Denver last month and, as we walked to restaurant in the downtown area, I spotted a shop that sold pot. Legally.

It was .... weird.

IHS is based in Colorado, btw...

Not I.

Everything works fine here at home with a wireless network and at work where everything is hard wired.

I think the OP is experiencing the loss of net neutrality.
