Default Why is Sitcoms Online taking so long to load the message boards tonight?

I've noticed today that the boards are taking a long time to load up and I'm wondering if there was something happening tonight that is causing this?

Yes this stupid host!!

I told Todd last night im getting slow downs again,time outs,you name it!!

He doesnt seem to care and its horribly sad... He mine as well take the site down if he doesnt care to make it better.

If he would unblock HTTP it would help some.. (A little bit)

There is no blasted reason on earth to force SSL on a site like this...

People who do just blindely believe the lies/fear mongering and its sad..

There must have been a ton of bots online at 3 AM last night. There couldn't have been many humans online at that hour.

There's not much more which can be done other than blocking their IP addresses. It can only handle so many connections. It's running well now.

I was briefly on around the time Hawkee made this thread, it was slow as molasses but only in the 300 range then. Strange, a lot faster now with over 2700 users online.

I noticed in approximately the 5 am hour there were over (I think this was yesterday or the day before) 6,000 non-members logged in, and no more than 4 members. I looked at all that since the response time was so bad. It's hard to believe there would be that many search engines needing info. You'd have to think some of them were malicious.

One other time I looked at what they were searching. Lots of legit searches, but some searches of archives. Of what use would that be?

ITS NOT MY COMPUTER..........

WHY IS THIS THE ONLY SITE THATS SLOW?

Even if I go on the mac there is a 10 second delay when other sites are instant! (Even HTTPS sites)

This has been a major problem here since Todd moved us to a cheaper plan........


When I first joined this site,it was fast like city-data Dead!!

I just wish Todd would listen to me about HTTP..... He wont even try it and see nothing bad happens...... I care about him...THE HOST DOESNT!!!!!!!!! THE HOST WANTS TO SPREAD LIES AND FEAR!!

He believes the lies told and its sad............ I love Todd and they are tossing him about like a puppet!!


I guess the real reason I am so sad is my mi$$ my friends and my dad doesnt give a crap..... He told thier dad I didnt get the shot..... Then I tried to lie and say I got it so I wouldnt lose them and he found out and told the guy "He doent have any proof"

Yea well he didnt either... ALL HE HAD WAS THE GARBAGE ON TV WHICH WAS MEANT TO DECIEVE EVERYONE..... THEY HAD EVERYONE UNDER FULL CONTROL VIA THIER TV...... THEY DIDNT WANT THEM TO LEAVE THE HOUSE SO THEY WOULD NOT SEE NOTHING WAS GOING ON!!!!!!!!

THIS WHOLE THING WAS A MAJOR DE-POPULATION SHAM............... And it caused so much Damage its not funny......

Im sorry im trying to get better conditions on this site

You just said City Data also blocks HTTP. So it is not fast because of blocking HTTP. And your extreme vaccine hatred is not healthy, you have got to let that go. Find new friends.

This has been very hard for me....... MY FRIENDS WERE STOLEN FROM ME AND NOW THEY ARE BEING LIED TO ICECREAM.. THE BASTARD IS TELLING THEM TO "STAY AWAY FROM ME BECAUSE I DIDNT GET THE SHOT,HE IS DANGEROUS"......

I KNOW HE IS,THEY WOULD HAVE COME TO SEE ME BY NOW OTHERWISE..

HE JUST DOESNT WANNA FACE ME BECAUSE HE SEES WHAT I TOLD HIM WAS RIGHT AND I BET HE IS HAVING HEALTH PROBLEMS AND DOESNT WANT ME TO KNOW!


THIS IS NOT A VACCINE ICECREAM!!!!!!!!!


I JUST WANT SOMEONE TO HELP ME TRY AND TALK TO THE DAD AND GET MY FRIENDS BACK.......

Geezus man, why even come to this site if it's so bad. Your incessant bitching and moaning about it and the vaccine and everything else you complain about has gotten old. Just leave or stop your ridiculous bitching FFS.

Quit dwelling on the past dude, it's unhealthy. Maybe you should consider seeking a professional to help you cope.

FYI: Before you ask, everything is going great for me. It's never been better.

This thread has run its course. We don't need the drama.

Hawkee, I'm truly sorry it was so slow for you the other night. I know it must have been very slow because you wouldn't have made the thread otherwise. Sometimes it might be your connection. I think it was just overloaded with an unsually high amount of bots. I will continue to block them as I see them.

I'm sure it was just a temporary and isolated issue. Hopefully it has run better for you the past few nights.
