Title: Site problems
Post by: Davo J on August 28, 2011, 08:07:39 AM

Is anyone else having problems with the site in the last few hours?
I tried to right a reply to a thread but it went to a blank page with some error, so I hope this one gets through.

Hi Dave,

Yes, I quite often have problems getting on to the site, especially early to mid morning here in the UK.  I put it down to all the guys in the USA logging on in the late evening their time!!!     :zap: :zap:

Only now just got on to the site...  :clap:

Regards

Peter

I had a bit of a problem this morning (Sunday, and in the UK), but all is well now. The error message was that the Small Machines Forum was having difficulty with the Madmodder server, so I think it was just one of those periodic glitches we suffer from.

Still, it gave me a chance to go and do something useful  :lol:

Also Hurricane Irene may be having an effect. I don't know just guessing :scratch:

Thanks,
Well at least I know it's not only me. Nothing worse than righting a reply, not copying it, then losing it when you go to post. :doh:

Yes the madmodder server is physically located in Canada don't know where but what I have read about the internet path ways and the routes the signals and data packets can take getting from point A to point B. I'm am sure that Irene and the ensuing weather storm is almost 600 miles wide. Is playing havoc, with the web!  :doh: So combining that with the server problems we have had recently, I am surprised that it can back up so fast!  :thumbup:

Yes, we're having some difficulty today. Brass_Machine is trouble shooting - might be related to the hurricane as we have massive power outages all over the Eastern coast. :doh:

If it's within our control, we'll get it fixed asap.

Thanks for your patience!  :bow:

We are having some problems... I will be rebooting the server tonight about 2am EST.

Please bear with us until then... we may be running a little slow.
