Forum slowing down?

lazy man · 01-29-2006, 10:05 AM

Am I the only one who was getting something like this for the past few days? It takes maybe five minutes or more to load a page, and sometimes the page doesn't even load at all. And then, randomly, it goes back to normal, only to slow back down once I get back on later.

I've gone to other pages, and they're fine. I even tried using Internet Explorer since I use Firefox, but the same result came.

So is this an exclusive problem that I'll have to deal with, or are there more people getting annoyed by this?

Several people were complaining about similar lag last night in the chat, and it happened to me once as well. It's obviously not just you, but I have no idea what to do about it.

Strange... if anything, the pages on the forums are loading faster than usual for me.

All last evening and one or two hours this morning for me. It was impossible to even load one page completely - at some point it would stop, and after taking a good ten minutes already, too.

I too have been having this problem lately. I thought it was maybe my connection...

I thought it was just the connection here on the ship. Guess it's a forum backlog thing.

Kp, Ic, I, and I think a few other people have noticed a high instance of Java errors. We can't be sure if its related or not and some people, like Kp, are getting a lot more errors than others.

I'm getting errors all the time too. I'll post a screenshot next time it happens.

EDIT: Happened sooner than I thought... it was workin' really well earlier.

Also, it's gotten to the point where Silly and Inbred can't get on at all due to the page not loading.

Somehow, I managed to get this thing to run just fine now. I was running Mozilla 1.0.8, and I downloaded 1.5 and that solved the problem. I'll try it with SK's computer, but I have no idea if it will work for others.
