Default This board is almost unuseable now (Your input needed)

I have been having a few problems getting onto this board lately. I know quite a few other peeps have.

Keep having to refresh the page several times - which often dont work.

How many other peeps have seen this?

Just doing this thread so Stu and Pet can get an idea of how many people this is affecting.

Cheers all

Ran

Its still mega quick for me although when France kicked our butts the other week I had a few problems with it getting the error message.

But on the other side of things as I'm a non paying member I didnt think it would be right for me to moan .......

Nath,

YES IT WOULD MATE
This is teh problem you see. We have been talking about something on another thread and it was mentioned that PF is unreliable lately...

It came to light that for some reason i still cant fathom, no one has bothered to mention it and thus, me and Pet thought its fine, so didnt look for any problems....

Were not here all the time so if PF has problems, we need to be told guys

In all fairness though there was a post last week about the site having problems with hackers or the like and I thought it was still going on, so hence thats probably why most people like myself I s'pose thought it was on going still ...

I'm not one to moan anyway

I've been having problems logging on lately, usually during the day not morning or evening. Didnt want to complain as I assumed it was the hackers still and also like Nath am not a fee payer so didnt think it would be right.

It has been noticeably slower recently, with some pages taking a LONG time to load...

Noticed last night it was taking anything between 5 and 20 seconds before any data-transfer started at all when clicking on a link, speedtest on my connection showed a stable 110-115k/sec downstream, and all other websites were transferring smoothly.

Us non paying members dont say anything stu because we normally get comments like "well its ok for free" and "you dont pay so dont complain" etc.

Now i know
