Quote from: Sephirah on February 28, 2025, 06:52:43 PMThis is a temporary thing, Chrissy. Have a good night, okay?

The staff is on this. I know from personal experience that site function is like top of the to-do list. Trust that they are working on this. As much as they can.

I will not be able to spend the evening with my sweetie, so it will not be as good an evening as it could be.  I saw her at lunchtime.  She is coming down with a cold I think.

She liked my purple blazer and white blouse.  She always looks nice, no matter what she wears.  We had a salad.


YOU have a nice evening. 

I will login later.  Friday evenings are usually quite slow on the Forums.

Chrissy, you can always find a way, sweetie. It doesn't have to be through this site. Email, or discord, or.. there are a hundred different ways for you both to share your evening. This site isn't the be-all and end-all of loving someone you love. The cyberworld is a big massive place.

Go get creative, sweetie... and may I just say... I am so happy for you. <3

GOOD NEWS 
....It appears that this morning that things are speeding up on the Forum. 

Thank you to the cyberspace controllers!

It is very laggy again!

Thanks for working on it though.

My experience today has been much better than in the previous couple of days.

It is better today.  At times it slows down though. 

It's a relatively better today but just to perfectly honest it's still pretty slow.

Like going from 1/10 to 3/10 performance to put it into perspective.

It takes at least 20 seconds to see the LOGIN box, then 30 seconds to process my login entries, then 30 seconds to see the list of unread posts.

Sometimes during the session it is quicker to go between topics, but then it slows down.

It took at least 30 seconds to see the post above after I clicked the POST button.

They last post above took only six seconds to post.

I was having troubles loading pages until this morning. It's been moving really slow the last couple days.

Today, logging in took ages.  Liking or thanking posts take so long that there is a risk of tapping the buttons twice and accidentally unliking and unthanking them.

It does take a long while to login and to go to another topic.
Then going to another topic speeds up, for a while.
Then it slows.

Clicking a function twice does not speed things up.  Much like hitting the elevator button repeatedly, it is usually ineffective.  The same when hitting the crosswalk button repeatedly.  The function does eventually work, so patience is required.

Many of those crosswalk buttons do nothing to activate the walk signal, so I hear.  It is for psychological comfort and potential signal activating if traffic management people want to set it up.

That is worthy of your

thread.

Okay.  Will do.

The staff is fully aware of the "Laggy Forums" problem and we are working
very hard to solve the issues.

Our back-up system was improved last year after more donation funds became
available as a result of last spring's donation drive. 
It is fully functional so that a site crash is most unlikely.

Please bear with us as corrective actions are being implemented.

  ... and all of our members:

Regarding the past reports and experiences with "Laggy Forums" it appears
that we are back to normal with good response times when posting and searching
around the Forum Topics and Threads.

        THANK YOU all for your patience as this was dealt with.
