I'll check into it and update soon, thanks.

**HwyRider** · 09-29-2014, 09:11 AM

Today is extremely slow. I used a timer and it's taking anywhere from 12 seconds on the fast side to over a minute for a page to load. It's only on this forum. All other web pages and forums load immediately.

**tomm** · 09-29-2014, 11:01 AM

Also noticed that occasionally, IE closes and re-opens with a message that says there is a problem with the web page being loaded. Happened about 6 times in the last 48 hours. And once it said something about an unresponsive script.

Only on this site.

Still trying to resolve this, the host is being difficult.

**HwyRider** · 09-29-2014, 02:51 PM

Not surprising. I'm not sure if they have the capability to the throttle the service speeds as many cable companies do or if they are just overloading their servers.

**ringadingh** · 09-29-2014, 07:10 PM

I had a few problems loading pages the past few minutes. Some posts didn't get loaded onto the thread and had to be retyped.

**Admin** · 09-30-2014, 02:16 PM

Seems as though we were getting hit with an unusually high number of bots (mostly Bingbot) crawling the site. I've made some adjustments so we'll see what happens. I can actually see a difference already, lets hope it continues.

**HwyRider** · 09-30-2014, 03:01 PM

That thing was deployed by Microsoft. WTF

This site has been slower than a Teamster working under a government contract.

Well, maybe not that slow.
