Messageboard is loading very slow..... Reply #4 – September 06, 2006, 03:27:33 PM I agree with the majority opinion here. I've got T1 at work and attempt to access this site every once in a while but, the load time does seem sluggish. At home with Cable, same thing. Server load? Quote Selected
Messageboard is loading very slow..... Reply #5 – September 06, 2006, 03:34:06 PM Whiners. :flip:It is pretty slow during certain times of the day. Honestly I don't know what's up. The worst-case scenario would be that the database needs restored, which might result in some downtime, but should fix the problem. The host's servers are blazing fast...load times on my site, using the same host, are very quick. So it's got to be PHP or board-related. I'm putting in a service call to the host ASAP.

Messageboard is loading very slow..... Reply #6 – September 06, 2006, 03:59:54 PM I have a problem with it at work, but I think it is just the network that they have here and all the firewalls they put up. But as soon as Im home I can load pages in 1-2 seconds with pictures even. Quote Selected

Messageboard is loading very slow..... Reply #9 – September 06, 2006, 06:19:32 PM It has been pretty bad for me lately, too. Sometimes as bad as ford-fox.org. Compared to Lincolns Online's board, it has been slower here lately.. and they have far more users than we do. I have a loading time of 35.173 seconds for this page alone.

Messageboard is loading very slow..... Reply #10 – September 06, 2006, 07:30:46 PM Try it on dialup, you whiners :p Thankfully I have wireless broadband on order :DI don't know why the site is slow, it seems to have had its moments ever since we switched to GoDaddy. Maybe Eric's service call will produce results (mine didn't, months ago). I dunno enough about PHP to try to troubleshoot it myself... Quote Selected
Messageboard is loading very slow..... Reply #11 – September 07, 2006, 08:26:32 AM I've only noticed it the last couple of days, usually early morning (7am-ish Pacific time). I click a link, nothing happens for a while, then BAM, the page downloads. Click again, wait, BAM. Noticed it about the same time the "anti-spammer script" was announced. Hmmmmm..... Quote Selected
Messageboard is loading very slow..... Reply #12 – September 07, 2006, 09:30:15 AM This site is always slower than any other site I goto. Wired or wireless. I guess good things come to those that wait. Quote Selected
Messageboard is loading very slow..... Reply #13 – September 08, 2006, 04:29:21 PM Just an update...we have been elevated to the top tier for database help at the hosting company. They did recognize a database connection issue and are hoping to have things resolved by the end of the weekend. As of this writing (Friday 9/8) the board seems fairly speedy now. Hopefully that's a permanent solution. Please post your feedback so we can get a good idea of whether it's fixed or not. Thanks everyone! Quote Selected
