Apologies for the short outage today. We are taking action to prevent this happening again.

And apologies also for the extended forum outage. They suffered a seriously technical issue, mainly that I forget to turn them back on again...😳

Well, not as short as we would have liked. But I haven't suspended timeouts as I would on a longer outage.

I've been having problems all week. After I move in 5 or 6 games in a row then the next game won't come up... if I hit the F5 key, I then get the message, "The page cannot be displayed".

I don't know why the site would slow down the more moves I make??
And I don't know why it would lose connection. Sometimes I even have to REBOOT my computer to be able to reconnect to RHP! I'm at a loss as to why this is happening.
Any suggestions?

Two possible problems:

1) spyware (most likely)
2) your ISP is having problems with their cache.

I second this.

If you use IE: Tools->Internet Options->click Clear History then Delete Files and see if that helps any.

Is there anyway we can get a history about this site. Like who made it? Are you/they rich now?

If so they earned it of course.

Thanks again great site.

Rich, right....lol. I am pleased you believe the admins of this site deserve to be rich though, so I shall be now be imposing a 1% RHP tax on all user's incomes. 😉 Forward all money to the normal address.

This history of the site has come up now and again in the forums, but one day I may document all significant events in the life of this site on a page of its own.
