[travis]

Anyone finding this site very slow loading lately ?? Firefox is taking ages to load and chrome not much better. ??

[Tconroy]

[Ron1892]

Using Fire fox and Not a bother.But during the week i thought it was very slow, but i thought it was just my computer.But working fine for me.

It must be all those terrible jokes you are telling.

[masterbenji]

Yeah. I use IE at home and it's fine but in work I use chrome and the site has been very slow lately on chrome for some reason.

[travis]

would it have anything to do with ad blocker, it's ridiculous loading times on firefox , must be just my own connection because everyone else seems fine.

[dantheman23]

It's gone slow as fcuk on my laptop as well, my laptop is getting pretty old but it seems to work away alright on most other sites,
Opening a pm here can take an age for me here lately.

[Maverick]

I use IE also and it seems fine although have noticed a few nights that I couldnt get on the site after 1/2 12.

[KEITHO M]

I use google chrome and no bother either mate.

[KEITHO M]

Site is unbelievably slow for me today. Every other site is working perfect. Anyone else having similar problems?

*IT'S WORKING PERFECT AGAIN*

[MrsPepe]

Every other site is fine as well

[KEITHO M]

I use chrome myself and was having the exact same problems as you. It's working perfect for me now though.

[MrsPepe]

same, back to normal now

weird

[Ron1892]

Was having the same problem earlier on and it was on Mozilla.But it seems to be ok now.

[denashpot]

very slow for me as well. am using firefox.

[Dub13]

I will look into this,thanks for letting me know I suspect we have outgrown out current hosting package.

[Ron1892]

Is the site slow for any one else tonight? Seems to be taking a while to open the site.

[babbsnads]

It was slow for me on google chrome but I'm back on my phone now and it's fine. It's been that long since I was on the laptop,I thought the problem was just with the laptop.

[MrsPepe]

yep same thing, on chrome also,think I might go back to mozilla

[Ron1892]

Its working grand now and im on mozilla.Been on Mozilla all night.Strange.

[djdwainec]

Yeah seems very slow on Google Chrome tonight

[Aido82]

painfully slow here at the moment :(

[Venom1983]

Ya i've been finding it slow lately too

[Dub13]

I am aware of this and tweaking a few things here and there to get us back to full speed.Keep reporting in here when the site is slow as that does help.

[Ron1892]

Seems to be running ok today.Its only at night time that ive noticed it been slow.

[wonit5times]

been slow for me this evening

[D-Red]

VERY slow for me this morning.

I had the cacks down at around 7am this morning, so i figured i might as well make use of it and go into the "Bird you fancy thread" for about 50 seconds or so.... Before heading off to work.

3 minutes later I had to just abandon the plan.

Ended up giving our only female customer some funny looks. Cant see her coming back again.

[JFT96YNWA]

Running very slow again for me tonight. Tried IE & Firefox - neither were better than the other. 1:30PM GMT today in work same problems. Both pc's running Win XP

1 thing i just noticed - when i log on for the 1st time and go to "new posts" it seems to hang for ages, so log out and back in again - obviously no new posts then but seems to be faster loading up the topics.

[MrsPepe]

Is this affecting anyone this morning?

Took exactly 58 seconds for "reply" on a pm to open and another 12 secs for it to send?

In case you're wondering why I timed it, its happened on a previous pm also;)

Took ages when I clicked quote for it to load :p been quite slow for most of the morning..

[elvis]

It's been like that for awhile. The joys of a popular busy site :)

[Dub13]

I was backing up the database this morning so that would explain that one.In the main it seems to be in the evening when the site gets slow.

[Ron1892]

Taking very long to open up threads today.Every other site i use is fine.Im on Mozilla.

Hows the Train-Spotting going these days maj?

[MrsPepe]

Thought it might be useful to Paul:p

[Phil!]

Very slow the last week for me on Chrome at home and IE in college.

[Captain_Morgan]

[Ron1892]

[Captain_Morgan]

[Dub13]

I am working on this,its a complex process it not necessarily 1 or 2 things but a mix bag.Thats what these reports are helpful also report when the site is running good.

[Ron1892]

Running slow this morning.

[dazzlermac]

[Ron1892]

[Dub13]

[Ron1892]

[MrsPepe]

Acting up again this morning

[travis]

[bobby benitez]

Screen is going white every so often, I click new posts etc and its loads but just stays fully white, this happening to anyone else? Only on this site I might add.

[F@ces]

Yeah - same happening here.

[liverirish]

Me too I thought it was to do with a slow internet connection maybe

[Maverick]

Ya happened me once or twice aswell

[byrnetred]

It's happening to me quite regularly on my phone even when I change browser

[D-Red]

This happened to me on a few occasions yesterday.

And frequently this morning.

[Malzheimer]

Same here all day. I'm having to refresh a page 3 times before it loads up and gets rid of the white screen.

[Dub13]

Will have to look into this.Keep the reports coming.

[elvis]

Can't get anything other than a white screen on the phone. But on the work server, it's been very slow today.

[MrsPepe]

Been particularly bad over last few days? Constant white page and if I post a reply to something it takes ages then it tells me I'm posting it twice ?

(tried on 3 different comps since last night, same on all)

[Carroll9]

Thought it was just my laptop.Yes it was particulary bad last night.

[Ron1892]

So it's not just me. It's been going on fr s few days now. Thought it was my laptop. Basically you have to keep re-loading the page again.

[Dub13]

This tends to happen when we get to near the end of our monthly hosting package,I am in the process of moving so it should be sorted for good soon.

[D-Red]

Nice one! Good stuff! Suppose its a good sign that its happening at all really

Was brutal earlier this morning. Slower than a culchie! :D

Booooooo;)

[irishman123]

Couldn't log In on the phone last night

[Mico]

There seems to be a database error every night.
Is this expected for maintenance.
It's only for a few minutes but not important to me.
Just said I might point it out

[redabbey]

The site is very slow right now. Lots of white blank windows and having to hit refresh loads of times to get into a thread.

[Carroll9]

Yes Lionel.It's the same for me.It had improoved the last few days as well.

[elvis]

Yep same here, it's the worst it's ever been.

[torrard89]

The site is very slow right now. Lots of white blank windows and having to hit refresh loads of times to get into a thread.

Same here too

[Dub13]

Having a small bit of trouble with the move,its not complete yet but I hope to have it soon.

[Ron1892]

Its been grand for me for the past couple of days.Last week it was very slow but it seems to have improved.

[D-Red]

It's been very bad lately imo, but sure we all know its a problem being solved, so ney harm in that.

Great to see the site going from strength to strength. Fair balls to ya Paul.

[Dub13]

Its with great pleasure that I am closing this thread.
