Anyone else experiencing extremely slow response loading pages on this site in the past several days?
I've been a member for many months and it is only these past few days that I have noticed the slow-down. Other web-sites that I access have not shown this deterioration. I suspect it is my system, but strange (to me) that it is only this site and only just recently.

I am also experiencing considerable delays on this site. I am on broadband and usually everything pops-up immediately but not recently.

Hi,

Seems like the servers are getting cranky, time for some reboots.

I am now getting very rapid response from this site. Whatever it was it seems to be resolved.

Yes, definite improvement since I posted the opening message. So....it was the site, not my system?

Our hosting company is having some problems now. Admins are working on it. Hope this will be resolved soon. Please accept our apologies for the inconvenience.

I would definatly not pay more than minimum wage for advice like that.

For Jake 152,
Read my post v e r y s l ow l y. There was no advice posted, therefore you should not pay anything at all.
Do not waste your minimum wages or comments on non-existent advice. DUHH

Join the club Sandy. I didn't realise that Jake 152 was a Spambot either and responded over on the "Shooting Eye Doctor" thread.

Moral, if the post looks like it has come from an stupid machine then it probably has.

David,
I must be getting old :-(. What is a Spambot?

I suppose that really it would have been more accurate to describe this as an automated Troll.

From what Shin posted I gather that there was a dodgy web site in this one's profile. The idea is that you get automated (strange) replies to postings in the hope that the unwary might be tempted to look at the posters profile and follow any links found there.

The trick is in recognising them and ignoring them.
