Definitely better on my end the past couple of days. Thanks for lubricating the data streams and finagling the cogitators.

Seems to have been quite bad for the last couple of days- I presume the waves of bots are continuing?

Starting to experience slower, but not like, slow slow loading times.

I don’t think it’s my connection, as my work laptop and streaming has been fine. And other websites aren’t showing a slowdown.

It’s slow for me, too.

Same 'ere.

I too am mildly inconvenienced by this.



EDIT - Looks to be working fine again now.9 Still sporadically happening.

Yeah it's still happening randomly.

Slow to me today.

Been fine most of the day, but the last hour or so it’s gotten worse, including failing to load.

Help us Lego-Wan Kenobi, you’re our only hope!

Slow to load again.

There is definitely something up hopefully not an external issue again.

Yeah something new is going on, not the same pattern as before. I'm looking into it and managed to spot it before the first post was made here thanks to a new monitoring service, so that is working at least

But we're your monitoring service!

And now we got 3 scammer threads.

yeh, been experiencing serious load times and even dropped connections lately. The Machine Spirits have been angered somehow..

For what it’s worth, seems back to normal for me this morning.

An external event is triggering it, might have fixed it, but won't know for sure until it happens again and I can see what happens!

If it helps, the site seems fine during the day, but kicks in around 17:00 UK time.

It's been slow a lot. I even got a java script error.

I just had an instance where Dakka failed to load at all. After I refreshed the site did come up, but it's still very slow.

Very very slow today.

I have been having issues again. Fairly random times , but it does make news a pain to read since don’t know if a page is one post or 10 new ones.

Same. Very slow, all day today (and yesterday)

It's constantly slow now, sometimes failing to load pages altogether.

On my end, loading times have become so long that I feel unable to participate in the forum anymore. I'll be checking in from time to time to see if the problem disappears.

Until then, if I dont see you guys for a while, I wish all the regulars happy holidays and a great 2024!

cheers

Very slow here too, usually about 30 seconds or more to load a page.

No Tauist don't go, you are contributing a lot to the Epic discussions! :(

Things appear to have fixed themselves, for me at least. Back to regular high speed loading times.

Whether it's temporary or fixed, we'll see.

It was real bad last night, seemed fine this morning like an hour or so ago, but is getting bad again

Still having slow loading times today. Other sites load fine, it's just this one. How's a lurker supposed to lurk?

Was fine it felt for a bit after getting up this morning, but it’s now so slow again.

Even just hitting the exalt button can take 30 seconds to go through.
