Of course, now the "pace" has reached the stage where, for your run-of-the-mill visitor and member, lag and delay are the order of the day. Part of the process? Yes, I suppose it would have to be. Though the more courteous and Netiquette-compliant approach would have been to put up an "Under Construction" page in between these rather significant stages of the Fix & Repair that's no doubt going on behind the scenes, and thus gently and courteously deny Joe and Jane Surfer access to the rest of the site. Even the two-man operation that gave ImageFap its "model" and "template," ImageCash, did asmuch (though, I admit, not every time it was necessary).
But nobody thought of that, or thought it necessary, and we have what we have. In the meantime, when clicking on a link:
"Count to fifty, you'll get there."
