Pages are slow to load again.

And the post are slow to post too Yogi...If they are trying to drive us away from here, they are doing a good job and if not why dont they sorts it

Tether and the end of springs to mind, this is awful, night after night of trying to post and endless cogs 

Its just a waste of time Dame

Moonie and Dame, I agree with your posts. If things don't improve soon, I won't even bother trying to post in the evenings.

Its all pretty damn sad, isn't it Yogi?

It does seem ok in the daytime when nobodies here 

I feel your pain Yogi  

its frustrating Moonie...we come on to chat and can't 

Yep, I found that too Aimee

I know

And the stickies have gone again "sigh"

I might give up shortly Aims...its annoying me to the point of distraction 

*agrees*

why is it that those that are not using Apple appliances are having the majority of problems, Ipad and Iphone users seem to be able to run fairly normal, while the rest of us are struggling. 

It is rather tiresome today as well ...........I thought it was bedtime in Seattle.

is there someone fiddling about in the middle of the night? are they 'Sleepless in Seattle'?

I've really never known things so bad on a regular basis on here ..............I do hope it's only temporary. I can sense a lot of folks getting very peed off.

I haven't been on here for a few nights but have lurked for a short while (about 15 mins)  and seen the comments about the speed. I have to say even not beeing logged in and trying to read was horrendous. That was at home. I'm at work at the minute (dinner time)  and have lurked/scrolled without being logged in. It seemed fine. I've now obviously logged in to post this so we'll just see how long it takes to go through.

10 seconds. I used the second hand on my watch to time it. (Only 40 visitors on too) check tonight

So it was you who was slowing us down

Bl**dy cogs are early today

I've been on my ipad and I've been having loads of problems. 

I've noticed the slow-down starts as early as 5-6pm and gets worse around 8-10pm.

It seems like we are on our own Yogi

I couldn't be with a better person.

You are so kind

It is slower than it used to be ....and it did cross my mind to wonder whether the start of the problem coincided with the new operating systems ....but as I'm not really computer savvy I'm probably way off beam !!

I also wondered whether any of our computer boffins thinks that the high volume/page count threads ,such as the Manor etc. could have anything to do with it . If so, we are more than happy to start building again if the Mods want to delete it

Apart from that I have to say that I don't seem to be suffering as much as some , but that could be because having had to deal with a) the loss of use of a laptop, b) the demise of the Gaga app  and c) learning to cope with one finger posting from the IPad , I'm just happy to still be here to contribute at all, however slowly  

Hi, all:

I'm sorry about this. All I can tell you is that we ARE monitoring, but they aren't seeing any problems with the servers or anything. We are continually looking to improve performance, so I don't want you to think that nothing will ever be done for this.

I'll pass on the info about the disappearing stickies and the worst timeframes.

Thanks Lori Do you think it could be the size of some of the threads ... say the Manor ( and Crib) ?? 

I don't THINK so, and don't want to get rid of our history until we know that's the issue. Once it's gone, you can't bring it back again.

Ok ...it was just a thought ...one of many By the way , O/T ...what do you think of IOS 7 and Maverick ??

If the stickies disappear again, here are direct links to them:

Yay thanks El Loro I usually just refresh ( or go into another thread )and they reappear  

 Thanks El.

I had thought about posting those links in a separate thread and then stickying it but realised that would be useless

Um. I think I'm on 7 (and love it), but I haven't gone to Mavericks yet--I'm waiting for Dave to get all the kinks ironed out.

Lol...ditto I've gone to download Mavericks in the study computer , but keep chickening out ,

People could save as bookmarks, though! 

Yes, Baz, me too!! 

Part of me is excited by it ....the other half keeps shouting , if it ain't broke ....... What I really need is for my son to do it for me  

Slow-loading pages have started already.

Hang in there, yogi! I'm getting information for the dev team, and we WILL be looking at performance issues!
