    How often has it occurred today, Packard? Has anyone else had this problem? Having run a few diagnostics, I'm not getting any connection issues.

    Twice now; lasted for at least half an hour the second time, the first one seemed shorter. Consistent over several devices and browsers, but I only tested one ISP connection. Was I the only one to get this problem then?

    Maybe. We'll have to see if anyone else reports in. I'm not getting any notifications from the server or the database.

    Dayton has been complaining all over the place about speed issues, though he's yet to find his way to the Helpdesk. I have not heard anything similar from anyone else.

    Well, I haven't had speed issues; just complete outages twice now, not since then. The outages only affected WF, all other internet sites I visited were fine at the time. :shrug:

    If you were in the UK, I'd assume Wordforge was on the new block list, but no clue about German routing issues.

    Either you finally got banned or Nick was backing up the board.


    Or both :bergman:

    Nick bakcing up the board happens at 9am my time, and looks quite different. (I know; I usually arrive at work at 9am, and, um, visit Wordforge.)

    No speed or loading issues for me at all, either on towers or laptops, at work or at home. :shrug:
