The thread with this name that was closed with no explanation did serve a useful purpose, so I am opening a new one to replace it.

Speed is back to normal now, and if there was a shutdown, I wasn't here to witness it.

    It had been normal earlier today, but it just took me over 6 minutes to get to the forums, and nearly 20 seconds to open this page.

    Don't know if it's a coincidence or a geographical link, but eBay (also based in San Jose) seems to experience the hiccups at around the same times these forums do, although the slowdowns at eBay are not nearly as bad as here.

    Not necessarily if they dumped some files to make room. :D

    It also could be there was a Bad file that maybe someone finally decided to look at and dump at WebCrossing.

    I went two days last week with little problem then the next message after the exact 48 hour period ,I had to wait on.

    Who knows maybe the WebCrossing folk have been monitoring this forum and decided maybe they better bring another server on board.

    I don't know that, and you don't either. :D

    ya... some logins have a slo-mo switch applied to them that they flip randomly.

    Maybe they're just randomly and alternately happy, or not happy, to see us.

    And that would possibly tell you it had nothing to do with the size of their servers?

    Last couple of Days seems to be working okay. Waiting for other shoe to drop with each message.
