    It just took me six minutes and seventeen seconds to load this thread at starting at 2131 CST.

    Win7
    Firefox 3.5.7

    Verified, while it was loading, to the same city where the board is hosted:

    Slow again. Fro about 10:00pm MST to 10:20pm MST. Off and on. Sometimes, it's blazing fast, and other times, it hangs real low, like my flaccid pecker.

    Looks like (but I'll need a couple hours to confirm, which I don't have right now) we're under attack again. :\

    Is this why the board is slow?

    Can somebody please take my name off this list?

    Thanks.

    I'm also having problems - slow then fast then slow then fast. And one slow period was sooooooooo slowwwwwwww it lost a response I was making.
    Would you just feed the hamsters and keep their water bottle full - and have a relay going so that when one gets off the wheel and relief gets on the wheel we don't have the slow and fast stuff?

    I blame Fruit Stripe gum.

    Oh, and incredibly slow this time around. Rep points took about 7 minutes each. Posts take anywhere from 3-5 minutes, and this time around loading the main page took a little over a minute.

    If its not fixed I see no need in sticking around. I can't post or read anything anyways.

    Sucks because I love this place.

    The solution has been shared, several times.

    I guess Lanzman doesn't care. :(
