    Site very very slow in fact I'm not sure if it will allow me to post this post, I've failed with all my other attempts

    Peter.


    Peter:

    Clean all the cookies, temporal archives, defrag hard drive....Take too more time, but the results are the best.....In ocassions, ocurs that a CD/DVD forgot in his device and inuse, ralentize the navigation.

    Is possible check your line with other computer?
    Is a Wi-Fi or a Cable connection?
    Your telephone line is aerial or subterranea?


    The server that hosted the Forum seems is phisically in the USA, and I note periodically very slow periods of navigation.

    Rest assured again chaps, these irregular slowdowns aren't due to your pooters - it's us.
    The glorious leader is on the case - Time & investment being devoted - bear with us, it will get sorted ;).
    Sorting a solid permanent solution over a quick fix just means it may take a little while longer than we might like.

    Edit: just noticed your last line Jan, yesterday's bogginess was indeed a provider-wide slowdown of some sort. Not a symptom of the backups running... as they weren't - something else that's being 'considered'.

    Last night 2100 hrs CET 4.3.09 I was responding to a post and the computer would not accept the post and the site crashed on me. I tried logging on for about 20 minutes and then switched off.

    Logged on today and no problems.

    Regards

    Is there a problem with this site? or is it me once again. I attempt to post a message and all I seem to get is 'page not available' or it is VERY slow and takes ages to load and logs off. I feel I will be lucky if this gets posted. It gets very frustrating.

    If there is a problem then please keep the troops informed.

    Regards
    Peter.

    Peter,

    I believe it is the site once more. It took me ten minutes to send a PM an hour ago and I have just resumed to try again.

    Hi Tom,

    I'm pleased its not just me, I was thinking I was doing something wrong, but it seems not.

    As I have said if there is a problem then it would be nice to be kept informed instead of members (me) thinking there is a problem with ones PC.

    Regards
    Peter

    Peter,
    After the last few weeks my simple proceedure is to log off and try another site.
    This way I know that my computer is ok.

    Lets hope that it is speedily corrected.
    Not easy when servers are thousands of miles away, with time differences just to throw another spanner in the works.

    Regards
    Tom

    Hi Tom,

    I have no problem with other sites, they are up to speed. I have just defragmented my PC in the hope it will help, but this problem has been ongoing for some time now, about time it was fixed.

    Regards
    Peter

    marcus69x I love WW2 meah!!!

    I'm sure Admin's working on it. I've been finding it slow to load up a lot lately too. Other sites are fine.

    I think we're becoming too popular and the servers can't handle the URL requests. :D

    I also had problems earlier, Peter, to the point I gave up. Seems ok now thou, if not a bit sluggish.

    Please bear with us.
    It can't be helped just yet.

    Adam can't reply as he has a power cut at home.

    Aye chaps.
    Perhaps ironically, the house power cut out just as I was replying here yesterday :rolleyes: so after a night of men with drills right outside the window here I am.

    All I can say at the moment is that this is still being dealt with. I'm waiting on a little more clarification from the techno-man.

    I promise you the slowdowns are as frustrating to us as anybody else, if I could tell you more I would; and when I can, I will.
