It seems to be the same old same old. I have times, like when I posted earlier, when it is blazing fast. Faster than AS.com. Then I will come back a while later, or even later in the same session, and it will plod along like a lame snail.
Right now it is quite fast.

ya.. uumm.. it's hosting issues.. not phpbb
i know it's a pain.. and there's probably a contract.. but, i think a better hosting service need be sought out

ACESSING PROBLEMS HERE AS WELL
I cannot get into the site the majority of the time. I wait and wait. If I do get in after many attempts getting to the forum selections is extremely difficult as well.trybe13 wrote:Upgrade? What upgrade?!?!?!? It's still slow as a Sunday driver! ](*,) ](*,)

It took over 20 minutes from the point of logging in to being able to read my reply to Zam's post! Moving on sounds like a GREAT idea!! =D> =D> =D>astrozam wrote:a full ten minutes to get to this post,never seen the site as slow as this,looks like their upgrade failed us.
Oh well,it ain't the end of the world,but I think its definitely time to move stuff as soon as the contract or agreement is finished.

This.
is.
pathetic.
Thinking maybe some of the problem was my ISP, I've done speed checks with sites all over the US. It doesn't appear that I have a problem with modem speed. Don't know what else to check.
This board is far slower now than it ever was.
I can't deal with it any longer.

i filed a complaint with the host last night. They replied this morning and said there has been a problem with the server and it was now fixed [-o<
Since then, the site has not been slow for me at all. We'll just have to keep watching it for now.

Well, the site has been fast this morning thats true,whether this is due to the server being fixed will remain to be seen,i'm skeptical of this host their track-record is a little sketchy with excuses,but perhaps we could use this week as a test,if it stays fast great, no need to move,but if we con't to have problems we will need to make a group decision on when to move.

It is good for me today. Since we are paid up to Nov IIRC, we have a couple of months to see if they keep things running well. If not, then a change is needed.
