Fed up with forums not working properly!

[#1]

I have found that putting an entry on the hosts file so I am only using the one server helps a bit.

[#2]

Now I am back on Plusnets DNS for troubleshooting
I too am suffering from the forum slowness to load issue(s)
On OpenDNS I had very few forum slowdown(s)

[#3]

I'd be interested to know whether the issues you're facing now are still occurring...

It was horrendously slow last night but hasn't been anywhere near as slow tonight

[#5]

Hi Chris
It does not happen all the time
Will keep an eye on it & report it as & when it is happening, to help track it down

[#6]

I'm still having my firewall fill up with rejected Plusnet server packets - see attachment.

[edit] : I am also struggling to get this posting to be accepted, it just hangs after hitting [Post] !  - trying again ... 

[#7]

I'm still on with that purleigh - Think I might be getting somewhere with it.

[#8]

Will that be today, or sometime whenever ? 

[#9]

Definitely not today.
However i'd be surprised if people weren't noticing an improvement in responsiveness/performance now.

[#10]

It is happening now &
Pages are taking approx 5 - 7 seconds to load

[#11]

Sorry to add - but this problem is still about (sometimes) - but only taking 3-5 seconds (for me)

[#12]

Yep noticed a big slow down here this afternoon

[#13]

Same here, waited over a minute for the page to load but no luck, same when trying to log out, usually ok but today has been really bad, clearly something not right here, are the servers having a problem coping with the volume of traffic ?

[#14]

judging by the number of duplicate posts we have had to remove recently it is getting worse when adding a picture

[#15]

This happened to me last night.
I posted a reply with several images, but the reply page was hanging so I closed it and reposted again. A few mins later the first reply was posted to the forum and a few mins later the second attempt at a reply was posted.
