Board Has Been Slow - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Jack1000 · 07-17-2007, 06:53 PM

Hello,

I have been coming to Sitcoms Online for many years. Over the past several days, I have noticed board slow down. The screen often does not change when posts go through, and I sometimes have to sit for 5 minutes waiting for a page to change. This has never happened before and only seems to happen on this site. When I hit the stop button in the browser, I find that upon checking the board that my post has gone through.

This could be a temporary thing. But the board is not as fast as it used to be.

This board has been pretty bad for over a month. Sometimes it goes fine and sometimes it's virtually impossible to post. It just acted up a few minutes ago for me.

a few weeks ago it was really bad but today it has been O.K., and i'm on dialup ...

It's very frustrating and takes the fun out of the site. I hope that it doesn't discourage new members from staying around. Is there an update on why it's still happening?

It does take the fun out of the site. What can be done?

I don't think it has been that bad, especially over the last few days. It certainly hasn't been like it was at the start of the month. There are spikes that I've seen where it would probably be noticeably slower. Things have improved gradually. I'm just receiving e-mails that were sent several weeks ago, so it appears that the backlog is finally getting cleared out. It's frustrating that I'm pretty sure I know what is causing the slowdown, but I've not received the technical support to fix it. If I turn on the mail server, the server loads sky rocket and it makes everything slower. If I turn off the mail server, everything runs smoothly but the mail queue just gets bigger.

I had a bad time earlier today where I couldn't post at all. Also yesterday it was real bad. For the past several days it will be real slow and then go real good.

TJ, this sounds like a job for Roto-Rooter, lol. You know, when it's good, like now, it's great, but when it's slow, I want to scream.

Ahh, just throw it at the hubby. I'm sure they've gotten away with things we don't know about, so for good measure, you know.

Well the boards sure don't seem normal today. They've been awful.

Absolutely, the boards have been super slow and it takes FOREVER to post. This can't continue like this.

Agreed, it sometimes doesn't even allow you on.

It took me over 20 minutes to get on the site today, I almost gave up on it.
