(This is from around 7pm tonight - I had a few Internal Server Errors in the last 30 minutes or so)

ouch! what kind of connection you got?
you may want to try trc routes to other sites as it looks like you have a real issue. your ping is huge so either your isp was having a problem, your using a mobile dongle or you have malware eating your bandwidth.

3 Mobile still.

I wouldn't have tried this tracert thing, but I was getting Internal Server errors whilst browsing the forum last night, so I thought I'd have a go at it.

I just did a tracert to twitter.com 10 minutes ago - (click the spoiler button)


Which seems okay (for 3 mobile, anyway...)

Another tracert to babeshows.co.uk in the last few minutes prior to posting get's this - (click spoiler)


My browsing speed seems to bounce up and down constantly, but getting to this forum seems to take longer than anywhere else.

"The road to Good Intentions be paved with Hell"

The Forum seems awfully slow today. I did a trace, and that showed up as normal, so I'll not bother posting it.

But I do seem to be getting an awful lot of these today:

   

And the waiting times to open up threads, seems to be ranging from a few seconds on certain threads, to several minutes on others.

Same for me Aceman,i've given up on some threads,one took over 2mins to open.

Its been shit all day!!!

It is a Bank holiday i suppose.

It seems to be running a bit faster at present, 6.45pm, than it was this morning, 10am onwards.

Yes it's definitely faster now than earlier today. I noticed it was slow early this afternoon, but it's improved since then.

My god, what just happened to the forum? It was working fine, and then it was like the performance just dropped off a cliff.

I've then been getting 503 error's ever since.
   

What the hell's going on?
