[av4625]

[nmpsilva]

[Spoolio]

Dunno if it's anything to do with there being a big meeting on today and maybe loads of people hitting the site at the same time?????

[Moozo]

Was like this last night.....but was ok during the day

[Spoolio]

Seems to have unblocked itself now.

[racingdwarf]

OK now, but dog slow most of the afternoon

I'm sure Jimmy will be able to expand on this but I'm guessing that if the site is being worked on by staff, like structural changes large uploads etc, this may cause some slower experiences. Of course there are many variables such as ISP speeds due to external maintenance, faults at ISP networks, large volumes of site traffic etc. All I know is, for a forum that has such high traffic and massive amounts of content things run fairly smoothly in general.

I'm sure I speak for the rest of the team when I say, if you experience any issues then let one of the mods know and rest assured, if Jimmy or the staff can make your experience better, they will.

It appears to be when there is a high volume of users online, looks like oople will been bigger servers.

[eyeayen]

Last night when I was looking there were close to 400 on here ( members and guests added together ), it's a lot for the site to contend with. Also I noticed today that I didn't see yesterday the folders at the thread titles are little oOple buggy logo's now, I saw someone post about this the other day but mine still displayed as folders. Perhaps an update for the platform I'm on or something ?

Anyway, all seems to be running fine now

As Mark has said, the utter S##TE that's posted in some threads and highjacking of threads makes it very hard to find what you need Getting a bigger server is just compansating for all the idiots postin S##TE

[The Chef]

Slower than a stoned snail here too. Has been for a couple of days.

'Most users ever online was 493, 2 Hours Ago at 08:58 PM.'

2 big meetings coming up, 280 on line now, 140 members & 140 guests. Don't know when these numbers are updated or what it means but its slow and hard work. Me I'me old and off to bed (slow and hard work my self), sleep well.

yes. like you type and it doesn't appear straight away. I was beginning to think my phone might be clogged up with shit haha

[dibble34]

I wondered if it was my Internet, but only affected on this site. Drives me nuts

[knighthawk]

It's been like this for me for around 2 weeks
Worse at night after 7pm
Thought it was my internet so contacted Sky, they said it's not them !
And yes it's only oOple that seems to be happening on

Any known issues from the Mods !!

[U1timate PigDog]

I've also noticed the site has been really slow on a few ocassions, (slower than the M1 in rush hour) like said previously it seems to be later in the evening, and Ive had a few pm's that I'm not sure have gone through due to this issue.

Seems fine today so far . Maybe the amount of users online at once causing congestion so to speak , and those bottle neckers really dont help the situation lol.
