Is it just me...?

Geeze, with the number of geeks frequenting this board you'd think there'd be a couple who could help out and fix the problems.

(J/K about the geek part. Well, no, not really. It's TRUE! And hey, I'm one of the aformentioned geeks)

Well, just as a bit of information, it is now 1:30 PM, Eastern Standard Time, and the boards are running just fine for me. Maybe just a tough of lag, but nothing serious. With teh work I have to do today, I can (and will) keep tabs on them for most of the afternoon...
 

About 2:30 PM, EST. Boards still fine.

Roughly 3:30 PM. Still operating fairly smoothly. A page may occasionally load slowly (6 to 9 seconds on a cable modem), but the majority pop up in under 2 seconds.

Now about 4:30 PM... actually seems a little faster than an hour ago. Again, the boards and site seem quite useable.

5:30 PM EST, and the boards are performing perhaps a touch slower than at 3:30, but not by much. Certainly not slow enough to cause major upset.

I'm beginning to think that either the problem has been resolved, or people have learned to stop checking in to the sites en masse at these hours. Or, I'm just seeing an anomaly, and somehow todayis simply a low-traffic day for some bizarre reason...

Guess I spoke too soon.

Possibly, but I'll tell you this: for me, the boards are actually flying along today. This is the first time in about 3 weeks that I've been able to read more than 5 or 6 message threads, and I'm connected at work via a shared T1. It's been great for me, just like it used to be.

Totally anecdotal, of course, but I figured I'd let you know. 8)
 

At this time yesterday (4:50 pm, US Central), the boards were so slow they were unuseable - and I've got a direct connection! I'm in the tech room of an ISP! Today they are much better, however.
 


Yesterday the boards were down for me most of the day, but today they only slowed down around 1 pm EST. I just logged off, but it's working so much better.

Thanks for doing such a great job, Morrus. I wish I had the computer skills to help you, but I'm only a geek and not a technogeek.
 


Hey Boss

Hi Boss sorry I've been away but those Hosers at Wotc has kept us hoppin doing the "Gnome and Halfling Kama Sutra for Dummies" book, I'm one tired Gnome but not too tired "to feel your pain".

Can't help with all the 'puter stuff but I put a basket of Shrooms (the little ones you liked so much ~nudge nudge~ :D), the new Masters of the Wild and our new Iconic (ok so she Natural D20 Press's Iconic) Anna Kulpa on the red eye to London for your Valantine's Day :D, I'd have included Nadia but we don't want you to over do it do we :D .
