Crawling on my browser............

 

[woodie1]

Glad to know I'm not the only one.

 

[Crono]

For a second, I thought it was my fault lol. It seemed to slow down right after I posted a link.

 

[Red Squirrel]

We need more MHz!

 

[BoomerD]

Glad to know I'm not the only one.

Me too. This is the worst it's been in months...or longer.

 

[boomerang]

I'm getting a lot of pages that won't load. So I guess I'm with everyone above me.

Reply, preview, navigate, it doesn't seem to matter what.

 

[db]

Me too. Yesterday and today.

 

[gaidensensei]

Glad I'm not the only one who noticed this. Started happening yesterday around this time, give or take +/- 4 hours. Speeds crawl to 1kb/sec or under.

Tried loading it through my phone's network on the mobi version, same symptoms.

It was fine again today until right now when I just checked it out ~11PM EST.
I noticed during that time other members were posting fine and didn't seem to have any problems posting (or neffing for that matter).

 

[Moonbeam]

I thought it was because I hate myself.

 

[Spacehead]

Yeah, this is a lot worse than normal.

 

[BoomerD]

Bah...it was so bad...it caused a double post...

 

[BoomerD]

Yeah, doing it again tonight.

Keeps timing out:

The connection has timed out

The server at forums.anandtech.com is taking too long to respond.

The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few
moments.
If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
connection.
If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.

Every other site loads just fine...including the anandtech main site. It's only the forums that seem to be crawling.

Really? Again?

 

[Rifter]

Yeah yesterday and today at this time. Going to have to find some new forums to hang out at during the night till they get this fixed. Its worse than when i was on dialup its retarded slow.

Could a mod tell us what's going on, or are they unable to figure out the problem and are too embarrassed to say so?

probably, been 2 days and still no word. Probably looking at logs and trying to figure it out. Or they just dont want to tell us.
