slight improvement

mndtrp

If this is slightly improved from before, I'm glad I wasn't here over the weekend. It's incredibly slow.

It's hit and (mostly) miss... Sometimes pages load quick for a few clicks then back to 20-30 sec or more.

I recall that the site went down for a brief period a few days ago for maintenance. Maybe that's the problem.

Meathead

It was just down for maintenance again... seems much improved now that it's back up. Finger crossed.

Nick Danger

Much better. I'm getting an instant response.

I liked the IB page similar to those old "technical difficulties" TV screens.

The forums are up, but the editorial side will be down for a few hours as tech runs tests. Sorry for the delay, but thank you everyone for your patience.

Anyone else get a pop-up of the person who started the thread as a thread open or the person who posted the 1st unread as the page goes to that post. It goes by quick and fills bottom of screen for me.

I am using latest Chrome browser on Android phone.

The Cow

Yes, I started seeing that a few days ago (only in mobile). Chrome and iOS.

Better, now, but the forum logo is broken:

Got the same 502 error a few hours ago. For me the past few days has been a struggle as well, the loading of pages were as slow or slower than modem speed.

But for the last 5-10 minutes it was working fine. Let's see how it goes from here...

Works fine on my Netscape browser.

Red Hood

That's the issue I was referring to in my previous post.

It seems better now as it was horrible over the weekend. I hope it last.

The "profile card" is a new feature on mobile. If you click on someone's username, it will display a quick rundown of their profile. For some reason, it's one of the first assets on a page to load.

b2net

Thanks. That explains it.

btw when I click on a user it does bring up the rundown of a user's profile but it has a clear background and is unreadable.

Meathead

It does the same thing in Safari on latest iOS.

No further slowness issues thou... thanks for fixing.

IBJoel

Interesting. Me too. I'll ask tech to fix.

mndtrp

Yeah, site has been speedy the past couple of days. Thanks for resolving whatever the issue was. I appreciate that problems with this site are fixed pretty quickly each time.
