Board Slowdown/Hang-Ups?

Ksyrup · 03-28-2005, 10:49 AM

Since late last week, I've noticed that the board has gotten slower. I'll either get hung up trying to load the general discussion forum and have to refresh, or within a thread, the posts will appear one at a time and I'll have to scroll down through them. This is happening on both my work and home computer.

Anyone else seeing the same thing?

cartman · 03-28-2005, 10:53 AM

Yep, I've noticed it as well. Not so much the hanging load, but definitely the one at a time appearing of the posts.

Tigercat · 03-28-2005, 11:01 AM

Phew, I figured since no one mentioned it it was just my computer being a bitch.

I'm in the same boat and also thought it was my own PC, which has been acting very weird lately...

At least, I'm not alone..

JeeberD · 03-28-2005, 11:58 AM

I haven't really noticed anything, but I wasn't on the board very much this weekend...

That is what I was thinking too. I is definetly happening to me.

MikeVic · 03-28-2005, 12:02 PM

Yeah, it's happened to me recently too.

albionmoonlight · 03-28-2005, 12:49 PM

ditto

Suicane75 · 03-28-2005, 12:54 PM

This has been happening to me for months now. Not alot, but every once in awhile, and when i hit refresh it becomes fine again. I just assumed it was my comp.

Heh. And here I was just blaming it on my substandard connection.

TLK · 03-28-2005, 02:06 PM

Make room for me in this boat.....

Flame Eater · 03-28-2005, 07:51 PM

ditto, again, for me too. (Is that redundant?)

hhiipp · 04-22-2005, 07:56 AM

This issue has gotten much worse over the last week for me, am I just imagining it or is everyone else noticing it too?

Ksyrup · 04-22-2005, 08:05 AM

I've been meaning to bump this - I've been experiencing the same problems since last weekend and through this week.

hhiipp · 04-22-2005, 08:10 AM

At times the board is almost unsurfable for me, click on a thread and it'll update 1 reply at a time with 10-15 seconds in between each update.

JeeberD · 04-22-2005, 08:58 AM

Haven't been having any problems (still).

*shurg*

Yeah, this is odd. I haven't noticed any slowdowns at all, and I just tried it with Firefox, IE, and Opera.

sovereignstar · 04-22-2005, 09:45 AM

I'm having this problem every time I visit the board and it is REALLY ANNOYING for me, since I'm on dial-up already. For those that are having the problem, what browsers are you using?

hhiipp · 04-22-2005, 09:48 AM

I have problems with IE, Avant, and FF.

Ksyrup · 04-22-2005, 10:05 AM

IE. My main problem is when I either refresh this forum or when I click on the forum from the page listing all of the forums. I get the top of the page right away, then the rest takes 30 seconds or so to show up (it might take longer, but when it persists, I just X out and start fresh with a new page. I also get the same type of hang-up on individual threads, but not as often.

Yeah, that is my exact problem. I use Firefox, but by the looks of it it's not a browser problem.

JeeberD · 04-22-2005, 10:34 AM

The rest of you aren't losers like sov and on dial-up, are you?

Ksyrup · 04-22-2005, 10:35 AM

Not me. I've got DSL at work and cable at home and it happens at both places.

hhiipp · 04-22-2005, 10:42 AM

DSL for me.

JeeberD · 04-22-2005, 10:43 AM

Weird...

Buzzbee · 04-22-2005, 10:57 AM

Happened to me yesterday. Threads would appear one post at a time for about 8-10 posts and then finally I would get a burst of posts. I use IE on an office LAN.

BrianD · 04-22-2005, 12:08 PM

DS3 here, and I occasionally see the slowdown as well.

Ksyrup · 05-17-2005, 06:53 AM

Despite the fact that I haven't posted to this thread in a few weeks, my problems have continued. It's just getting back to the point of annoyance where I felt like digging this thread back out and calling attention to it again. It doesn't happen every time, but about half the time I'm on the board, this forum and/or a thread I click on hangs, and I usually have to refresh once or twice (or just shut the browser down and start over) before it works properly.

Blackadar · 05-17-2005, 07:01 AM

It continues to happen to me at work (DSL, IE) and at home (cable modem, Firefox).

hhiipp · 05-17-2005, 08:41 AM

More of the same for me as well. Assuming it will be something that we'll just have to deal with if we want to continue frequenting the board.

JeeberD · 05-17-2005, 09:26 AM

I had a problem with this one day last week, but that was the only time I've seen it...
