I think it might be a good idea if people post their internet service providers too when they are having problems and we can see if there is a common factor :dunno:

Fine here at the moment, IE and Firefox. :thumbright:

The problem is, it only goes wonky for 5-10mins average, so unless you happen to post at that time you miss it.

Been awful all evening.

Pages won't finish loading.

each post in each thread taking about 20-30 seconds to load, then won't complete loading.

Had to post as a quote in here as the message box won't load at all.

Every other site absolutely flying though.

Serve you right I say for not believing Wine~o and thescruff when we said it was slow.

Been rocking here since they re-booted last night night. :thumbright:

Have to say how really weird though , one night it plays up for us then the next it plays up for you, one would think/expect it to be the same for all users. :scratch:

I'm not entirely sure what to do about this issue, there are normally 500-600 people in the forum when this happens and over a hundred of these are logged in members, yet only a couple of people seem to be having issues at a time.

If it was the site or the server everyone would have the same issues at the same time :dunno:

I'll collect more info in this thread and then I'll pass it over to the server management company to see if they can shed any light on what is happening :dunno:

If it's any help, I noticed with Dave and Southwood it was a continuous problem, over several hours, but with the rest of us it was maybe 40mins maximum, 5-10mins usual then it would pick up again.
