What is wrong with this site??

It's been pretty slow on my iPhone.

Little slow to refresh. I have to imagine that web bandwidth is getting strained in some areas.

Extremely slow here too since yesterday.  No error messages for me, just slow.

I’ve had problems connecting to this site since yesterday.  I tried a number of other sites that I frequent, and the connection was as fast as I’m used to.    

Very slooooow on my PC but OK on the iPhone. It started yesterday

It's not just this site.  I can no longer log onto the Scale Auto Magazine web site. I gat a 504 Gateway Time Out error.  

Can somebody try to log onto the Scale Auto Magazine web site and see what happens?

Ok so it's confirmed that I'm not the only one with the issue. I have gone on several browsers and get the same error code. My I pad ssys My password is wrong yet my I Phone can connect but VERY slowly. 

I strongly suggest to let FSM know. I PMd Elisabeth to let her know

I understand JK but it doesn't hurt to let her know so she can forward the info. Not long ago we had some type of malware pop up on this site and I pm'd her about it and she took care of the issue.

She is I believe the "Digital Editor" so she certainly needs to know about these issues before the kids pack up their marbles and go home.

Yesterday (Friday) was able to get on intermittently.

Today (Saturday) I was unable to connect all day, first this is my first successful attempt at 5:05 EST.

I tried alternate browsers but not other devices.

Have you tried to log on to the Scale Auto Magazine web site? I'm just asking because I cannot log onto that web site.

Same problem as Greg after trying to log in yesterday afternoon. Tried resetting password and the whole nine yards, no effect then or this morning, on phone or PC.

Naturally...since I troubled Elizabeth with an e-mail, this morning...the thing has now 'automatically' fixed itself.

[No snide 'attitude' intended if it was some sort of IT intervention. I just didn't reasonably expect any hands-on response over a weekend.]

Thank you Elizabeth, I can now log onto the Scale Auto Magazine website.

Same issues with me since Friday would not accept my log in, emailed finescale services and Elizabeth. I'm able to log on now. Thanks for the help.

Sorry I couldn't help you with that, Johnny. I don't have an account there.

Glad everyone is back on now. At the moment, site performance seems downright spry to me.

Finally was able to get on! 

Well now at 11 pm I can't log in my I Pad, I'm on the PC now and can't log off on my I Phone to check if i can log back in so the problem is still active.

Yep! Both sites should be working now. Enjoy!

since friday,  could not get on all weekend.  until this am....  But, i did not coninue to try over the weekend.  Had some scale questions but had to go elsewhere unfortinately..

well, just noticed, i am logged in but at the top of the screen where it says, Welcome Back and then my login name, the name part is blank......

I’ll add a new “WTF?” gig on the site while we are on the subject. I type my reply, switch ver to a new tab for image searches to add to my reply and after I find what want then return back to my reply- boom, I have been logged off the site and my reply erased... this is happening frequently lately... it’s more than a bit aggravating on a wordy reply...

Is anybody else experiencing this?

Not for that particular operation, but yes at times. I use Word more now, and transfer the text at the end, then insert image links. At least I only lose the latter phase when the site winks.

Or I just post as I go and edit as a sort of autosave every couple of minutes.

Duct tape solutions.

Go chase some Javelinas for a while.

Ya know this retirement stuff is hard. Usually I’m back to work by now. I haven’t had this much free time on my hands since school days summer vacation. Do I work on the house, play with the dogs, work on a model, or talk smack online...?

I still haven’t seen any sign of Javelina... saw a roadrunner out hunting this morning though...

Havet had that issue yet.  But i still cant for some reason add a pic to my signature line - get a "validation error".    When i insert the pic, it shows in the window until i hit "update".  I have my picture i use on this site on google pics, in a shared folder that i create for each subject.  It works when i post them to threads but for some reason i cant them into a signature.....
