Yes - I've noticed it over the last three days (maybe two?). It's a sort of halfway house at the moment - sometimes immediate and sometimes I can go and make a cup of coffee before anything registers.

yes, it's all been happening to me too.  
Slow to load, got booted out a couple of times, same message.  It's only this site.    Gets here eventually though.  Thought it was me at first, because I was having terrible trouble on Sunday losing my broadband connection.  
It's slow in the evenings for me too.

HI,

I've noticed for the last couple of nights about 5pm (my time) it has been very very slow.    Haven't had the message like I usually get.   I can usually answer a couple of emails by the time it has rolled over ;D   Yesterday, I kept losing the connection to Roots, was in the middle of posting and "whoosh" Roots was disconnected. ::)

Cheers

Hi

If a post is taking more than 10 seconds to get through to the site, I always highlight and copy it so that I dont have to retype it if the connection fails.

Normally I do that, but because I was on the TOT board, I wasn't too worried about losing the post ....

Glad its not just me, I was beginning to think RC didn't like me when I kept seeing the yellow postcard page every day this week.

Surely it can't be too many people on, everybody has gone back to work.  :-\

Probably the elastic band is fraying again.  ::)

Hello everyone!

Hope the UKers are surviving the cold?  :-X

I've sent a message to Admin to see whether there is an issue - you'll sympathise when you hear that the Mods also get locked out and get dodgy messages with flags on them!

I'll report back if there's any news!

Kind regards, Arranroots  ;)
