Monday
Was on 3 different times today, so far.
Maybe there was 2-3 page screen changes that were peppy. Other then those 2-3, everything was sloooow. Even had some "connection resets".
I will be glad when the geeks figure it out. I think the slowness could be causing some visitors not to get involved here.

I was told getting my beauty sleep was a waste of time.

It is slow like that today (Tuesday) at 12:36PM EST. I would click a topic, go and read at another site, come back after reading several posts elsewhere and it was just finishing loading.

Been real peppy for a good number of days.
Could not get in earlier this AM.
A bit sluggish now.
Hope the speed comes back.

I have no idea what time it was earlier today, but I couldn't get in at all, and the chat display on the front page was showing a SQL error. So it seems they are still having issues with their SQL. How long can it take to fix that? #-o
Pretty slow this evening as well. Timed out a couple of times.

I must admit that I now expect the board to be so slow that I won't/can't wait for it. It's almost as if we need a backup board for the backup board.
I agree with Rileysowner, how long can it take to get a problem resolved? The hosting guys are certainly not gaining any goodwill from me.
I think it's time to move AstroSafariVans elsewhere.
