OWF Slow to Load?
 
Hey all.

I'm finding that when I visit OWF after about 10pm Australian Eastern Daylight Savings Time (11am UTC/British, 6am US Eastern time) that pages load reaaaally slowly or not at all. Sometimes they will start loading and then churn for a while until I hit reload.

Is anyone else getting this?

It happens to me as well, but only in a specific time frame. It gets annoying because I can't visit the site for some time. Yet it always work fine whenever it isn't in this time frame. Yer not the only one. Maybe Searex or Alcar knows?

I've been experiencing very slow loading lately too, It's been getting a pain, and there are a number of occasions where I very nearly double post!

No problems here.

Please ignore this post, the long loading made me double post.

I’ve just encountered this slowness for the first time. ’Tis quarter past eight UTC.

I live in Brisbane Australia [Australian Eastern non Daylight Savings Time, yes Queensland doesn't have DST] and after 9pm and before 7am it takes ages to load.

I just notice that the OWF won't load at all sometimes, but it comes back up in a few minutes. Weird.

I noticed it last night. Only managed to get to my CP before giving up. Can't be heavy traffic, I mean this is OWF.

I haven't experienced it here, but it does that att he serebii forums well every other time I try to go on the b*oody site.

Jordan 01-24-2007 01:19 PM

Serebii? That's the pokemon fansite right? It must happen to lots of forums then, is it vBulletin being a d**k? :p

Nate 01-24-2007 05:06 PM

I doubt it. It's most likely a server-side issue, which would make any similarity to another vBulletin forum a coincidence.

E'l Scrabino 01-24-2007 05:45 PM

Yeah it's happening for me right now...

moxco 01-24-2007 06:14 PM

Now it happens to me any random time of the day.

snuzi 01-24-2007 09:04 PM

It's never slowed down for me before. Perhaps it just depends on the internet connection?

E'l Scrabino 01-24-2007 09:12 PM

Perhaps... I'm not entirely sure...

moxco 01-24-2007 09:15 PM

I dont think so, because I got realy good internet conection and unlimeted downloads. I think it's the website.

Nate 01-24-2007 10:59 PM

In any case, now that we've established that it's not just me having this issue, there's no point speculating until El Presidente returns from his mystery holiday.

E'l Scrabino 01-24-2007 11:33 PM

Or E'l Scrabino finds out how to fix it :D

Lol jks. When's 'El Presidente' getting back?

Alcar 01-26-2007 08:38 PM

No idea why that's happening, our host hasn't placed a notice about it, so if it continues any further, I'll get them to look into it.

Alcar...
