No problems when I was on yesterday morning, at home the computer is a pile of burned out parts that I just tossed on the scrap heap so no problems there either. Everything looks good at the moment, 7am.

Well, I was up till about 11:30 (our time) last night with this, and I had to get up this morning at 4:30 am to go to work. It's seems to be stable for now, if not I will get after them and maybe move if I have to. I have 3 accounts with these guys and I'll move them all if they don't fix this soon.

Most of the time, I kept getting a generic "unavailable" page with a few ads. Once though, I got a blank page that simply said "This works!". lol, I assumed they were working on it and had found a fix.

Between a nasty headache and the forum being down, there surely must have been a tremor in The Force!

Thanks for whipping those boys back into shape Dolk!

That page ("it works") was placed up to test the forums around 5:30 or 6:00 pm PST last night. It was remove after the first time they fixed it.

I just got a email (5:27 am PST) saying they were still having problem, but I don't see any right now. Maybe they need to clear their cashe on their browser, but I don't see anything wrong right now. Anyone having problems?

(6:20 AM PST)

Everything is as smooth as a freshly cleaned and lubed 91/30 bolt!

It actually seems to be a bit faster refreshing after posting. Maybe the memory upgrade is helping too.

Thanks Dolk.

Thank you!

Periodic updates through the day from you guys would be very helpful, just to know they have this fixed.

Thank you!

9:30 CST and everything is working flawlessly. I even re-read some of the photo intensive topics and the images had all loaded before I scrolled down. I realize they aren't necessarily hosted on the same server as the forum, but the over-all performance is noticably faster than before.

Flawless here. And I actually didn't clear my cache (I hate re-entering all those passwords and such).
Thanks for the great job, Dolk :)

Working with a new laptop and accidentally closed my whole web browser. When I restarted it and tried to re-open the forum it wouldn't open. That was around 12-12:30 and couldn't get back on til now. Thought I had broken it.(again) :D

Yep, it was down here, too. About an hour ago, tried to get on several times, cleared my cookies again, no go, and now we're back up again :D

Yep down for me a few times also. I also have had a problem with it logging me out randomly. It did this a few days ago but I wrote it off as being my wanky computer and IE8.

Withdrawals here have been nightmarish. It did force me to go outside into the fresh air to ease the sweating and uncontrollable shaking. Once my eyes became adjusted to the light, I jumped into the truck and quickly drove to the nearest pawn shop for a quick fix. Though there wasn't a Mosin in sight, I did get to handle a nice Hawkins .50 cal. :)

I am finally able to get back on after several hours. Dolk...go kick their ass please :)

Perhaps if your hosts changed the default web page to a cheerleader calendar, it might not be so agonizing when the forums are down?

Yeah. That works. Can you get them to do that, Dolk?
