Forum seems slow

[Greg]

I've noticed that when navigating through the forum, it seems to be REALLY SSSLLLOOOWW, and it gets hung up quite a bit. Is anyone else having this problem too, or is it just on my end?

This morning I tried to log out and got a "this page cannot be displayed". Thankfully I brought up the site in a new browser and verified that the system had logged me out.

Occasionally I have lost a post that way and had to re-key it. I also got bit twice on attempting to post a new topic and forgetting to put a title on it. It says to go back but when I do I get "page expired" and I have to start all over.

One of these days I'm going to learn to [ctrl]+A, [ctrl]+C in case something is about to be lost I can paste it back when I start over.

The forum was slow earlier today and I'm on DSL. But it's fine now.

Many Internet Providers have to pay premiums for bandwidth on peak hours, as they are usually going through someone else under a contract. Sometimes, when the usage peaks, their service is susceptible to brownouts and bottlenecks, because they won't go above a certain amount of bandwidth, and there are more users during peak hours, and less bandwidth to go around.
