Anyone having trouble with Facebook today? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

TJL · 05-30-2009, 04:23 PM

I click on Facebook, and my homepage takes several minutes to appear.
I click on a friend's page, again, several minutes to load.

Is anyone else having this problem today?

I've been having problems with it for a couple of days now. I tried to upload a new profile pic and it took FOREVER. Then, it would appear in comments, but not in the actual profile pic. Just blank with that X blox thingy.

I hope they get it fixed soon. grrrr!!

TJL · 05-30-2009, 09:11 PM

Okay. now Facebook AND Twitter are not responding.

Is anyone else seeing this or am I going insane?

Crimson and Clover · 05-30-2009, 09:24 PM

yeah its taking forever to do anything

catlover79 · 05-30-2009, 09:46 PM

I still haven't had any problems, for some reason.

Wreckless · 05-30-2009, 10:35 PM

No problems with it today cause I didn't check it, but the last few days I've had the same problem as you. Sucks but I hope it's fixed/working now.

I've been having problems for a couple of days now. I thought it was just me because none of my friends have had a problem.

MickeyMac · 05-31-2009, 02:29 PM

I was on Facebook before I came here and I had no problems.

TJL · 05-31-2009, 03:52 PM

Still having trouble with Facebook. It was okay this morning but now I'm getting a lot of "Internet Explorer Cannot Display This Page" stuff.

Same thing with Sitcoms Online. It took me a few tries to get on here today.

Why does the web do that?

catlover79 · 05-31-2009, 05:15 PM

I've been having more problems lately trying to get on SO than Facebook. I was having problems getting photos to upload on Facebook today, however.

TripperFan · 05-31-2009, 05:18 PM

^ That's the EXACT message I was getting. I've been getting it periodically on other sites (this one included) the last couple of months.

Now my pc is a dinosaur, but it's not that. I've asked and all people can figure is that it's a bottleneck on the hubs our computers are connected to. (i.e. the hubs that go into the Facebook server). Maybe Roby can explain more, but from what I can put together, it's our internet providers that need to upgrade their stuff to handle the traffic.

To make matters worse for me, my Outlook keeps maxing out and I can't archive the folders properly so I'm having to manually delete basically thousands of old messages in order to clean it up so it can run again.
