I have managed to log in, but with extreme difficulty.

Running very slowly, and 'freezing' regularly.

Appears to be undergoing maintenance.  I thought we used to receive notification of scheduled maintenance?

Been trying for 40 mins to reply to a message notification.  Won't accept my log-in, says user/password don't match.  just now tried to log in again to see message "currently in the process of updating this feature". 
Hope I can log back in when they've stopped messing around

There was a banner on some pages yesterday saying it'd be down for routine maintainance - although why they just couldn't just send out an email is beyond me. The blog should give times and info.

Thought I'd post it seeing as some of you can't actually log in.

I'm getting a bit fed up with it, it's the third time this has happened, in the short time I have been with them.
I'm wondering if it's worth renewing my subscription.

You may have just been unlucky. I've been with them about 18 months and not had too many problems - just the odd maintainance hiccough, which isn't such a bad thing if you think about it.
