    Multiple times TFwiki refuses to load without and error, yet sometimes it loads completely fine. Anyone else get these problems?

    Yeah, this happens to me all the time. It's especially annoying since I used to regularly edit the site before all this :/

    TFWiki has trouble loading all the time. I get error screens more than I get actual pages.

    I gather TFWiki's servers have been in some upheaval recently - I think the company who they were with was bought out by another, and things have been a bit crazy. Walky was saying on the Allspark that the new company's charging more, too...

    Yeah it happens pretty regularly. On the other hand, it often doesn't last too long. Yay!

    Same with me.

    There's a lot of foreign voice actors that deserve pages damn it.

    Pretty much this. Walky's working on getting more advertising money, but there are also donation links on the Wiki if anyone can help with hosting costs.

    Coulda fooled me. They mostly just look like ad nauseum Cow & Chicken jokes and making bizarre voice actor connections.

    Yeah, the point of TFWiki is not to caption the images. Captions should only be added by the image uploader, if they even decide to caption it. And if they do, they should be funny. References and old jokes aren't funny if you've never heard of them.

    The humour is an added bonus to a comprehensive and detailed wiki. TFWiki doesn't exist for one's ego.
