I'm a new member and every time I go to post I can't b/c of server/page timing out. Why is this, and how can I avoid it? Hope this one works...

This problem is most probably from your side either from your isp or router or modem (if any) that you are using for the net connection. Because I am not facing such kind of problems and I am able to post as well as view threads (as I am doing now).
