or is anybody else having a problem with the forum loading up?

I am almost continuously getting error messages and having to reload pages again and again. It says stuff like 'maybe too busy' and I know we all love the forum but I doubt it's *that* busy at 7am on a Saturday morning...

I use firefox and google chrome browsers and it makes no difference which one I use.

Please somebody tell me it's not just me before I go insane!

I'm having other probs with the 'puter so its not my favourite thing but this is the only internet site which wont load so I'm guessing its perhaps not my computer... (hoping!)

I have been having problems for about a week with this site being slow to load or it coming up with diagnose connection, but it connects to other sites at the same time with no problems

are you by any chance using either of the two browsers i use or Windows 7?

'maybe too busy' means the server not the forum, that is the problem with shared hosting, other sites can have an influence. Sadly a dedicated server is out of the price range at the moment :(

Usually when it starts happening and causing errors they move things around a little and the problems go away. Hopefully that will happen soon. :)

Hopefully all will be well soon then. x

Mine is ok apart from when I click on new posts and then I get sorry nothing matching please try again - or something like that anyway but it's not a problem, just take me longer to look at the posts. :D

yes I've been getting server busy messages for the past week or so - you just have to keep refreshing until it lets you in!

Yes I ge this quite a lot too.
Sometimes I do have problems with the pages of the forum loading I can be sat here for over a minute waiting and even refreshing doesn't work but I think that is probably down to my server ??? , thing is I don't get it on any other sites that I have noticed x
