TFB seems to be caught in a loop. It's been reloading for about 15 minutes without ever getting there.

Just FYI, in case it's something Rhoda should know.

I've encountered this as well, but got through by re-clicking.

Same experience here. Why is this an important service for TFB to connect to? What difference would it make if the counts were high or low?

I tried the re-clicking suggestion, thanks. It didn't make any difference for me. I'm not having a problem posting or getting around, though. It's just loading incessantly.

It's a geek thing. I like to see all kinds of statistical stuff about the site.

StatCounter shows me a TON of things about the traffic, like all your home addresses and cell phone numbers. It can turn your monitor into a camera so I can see what you're wearing.

But yeah, if it's causing problems I'll ditch it.

And our bank passwords, no?

P.S. It was being completely dorky earlier, I agree.

I think I may have caused the crashing and freezing. Sorry.

All gone.

Was ALWAYS gone for me. NoScript blocks your statcounter and google-analytics off-site tracking scripts.

Didn't we all pass the "Being Anonymous on the Internet for Obots" course?

Those of you complaining about not getting your paycheck may need to look at that.

I'm on NoScript, but I guess I must have allowed it some point. Foggy, I don't think you should do without it. It's never happened to me before, so it must have been a temporary glitch. Please. I was just informing you, not asking you to get rid of it.

Meh. One less script. I still have plenty of stats available to me. It's all good.

Oh crap. You didn't see my Betty Boop tie, did you??
