I know of no leadership internal squabbles and find it misleading that you would allege that there were.
Of the 2 site owners, both of whom are attorneys, one operates as the Administrator, the other as Super Moderator. Though their business arrangement and terms thereof is not a matter of public knowledge, they compliment each other and function quite well in the management of OCDO,
which is private property and the rest of us are guests. What that means is that they can post whatever they want pretty much - still they stick to related/on topic material.
If anyone is having particular problems with the site, they should look first to their server and then to the health of their PC - many things beyond the obvious viruses can bog a system down. Spyware and fragmentation are common drags on speed. I have ten (10) different clean-up programs, run several each night and will have run them all a couple of times by the end of each week. That doesn't guarantee peak performance, but it goes a long, long way down that road.
Heat can also be a killer - keep the internals clean and the fans working efficiently. I've actually considered a mini duct from my A/C unit to discharge at the back of my case. I'm very reluctant to consider a liquid cooler - concerns about that one catastrophic leak.
Bottom line - eliminate all other possibilities first......if that doesn't work buy/build a bigger, faster PC and maker your supplier happy too.
