Is this it? Another rant....

from WinCustomize Forums
Why is it that Wincustomize is the only site I go to that "acts" like it is on dialup? Did the "new" servers help at all? It seems worse to me now. Any major site issues we should know about? I hope there is something. At least it would explain the "turtle" action.....

Still having some difficulty.
It takes anywhere from 20 to 40 seconds to navigate from page to page in the forums and certain galleries, but not all, for me.
I also have uploaded some stuff. One thing went through moderation a couple days after the first upload, which is still sitting. (I know...5 days, not a problem if that's the reason) and another upload shows as sitting in 'Processing' for 2 days. I tried to delete them (Not happening) and tried re-uploading, but the one still shows as sitting in 'Processing'.

And finally, the email update links I get still direct me to the homepage, not the actual forum thread or skin I am being notified about.

Sorry to keep bugging you all. I know you are trying your best to sort it all out. I'm just updating, not whining.

And adding to a post gets me a "Timeout Expired" page and I have to back out of the forums (which takes about 5 to 8 clicks) and then go back in to see if it was posted...sometimes yes...sometimes no.

ditto

Site seems back up to speed this morning, for how long, only the gods know. For the last several days, it has been all over the place; one minute as slow as molassis, the next very fast. When it is slow, it is really slow to the point of just signing off and hoping for better days.

Part 2.....tried to post the first part of this message for quite a while , gave up came back to the site and now will try again.

Today the site is positively flying....like greased lightening buttered on both sides.

Proves to me the improvements and new servers are are kicking in. Thanks Brad, Tman and everyone working to get WC running smoothly

Tonight it is. Today seemed faster too. No where near what it is tonight though.

There is still a log jam somewhere. For now?

Just dropping by...the site is fast as hell...i'm on 256 DSL and all works fine. T-Man must have tweaked something real quick.

On another tone...Hotmail works slow as a snail. Can't they hire T-Man over there too?

It takes my dsl about the same amount of time to load the page as to read the page with 33 posts in a thread...some days it;s like stoneblue says, and I gotta go and find something else to do for a few hours. Ok, so it's only a few minutes, but it sure feels like hours when I can d/l "SP2 redistributable" in 15 minutes and that is a 266 mb file.

Now that I have said something, it's only a flash for a page to load...go figure.

Not recommended......could turn seriously blue if it slows to a crawl again.
Reply #44 from WinCustomize Forums Top
Yeah, it just taken 15 mins to start a new thread. Blue is just about the right colour to describe how I feel...
Reply #45 from WinCustomize Forums Top
Yeah, sadly it appears it was just a fluke.

Trust me, it WAS really fast when I posted that. Such is life.

But hell, it gives me something to do, Man I am getting alot of Grey these days!
