Has rain water got into the system or is it just me? Last week or so, I can't even get onto the Forum before about 11.45pm. Even now - half past midnight gone - it's torture. 5 mins between presses of the enter key. Am losing the will to live....

This is the first time I have even been able to get on for two days. I thought it was just me doing something wrong - as per.
So, apparently, it isn't just you

Actually it's getting towards quite rapid for me now - only about 20 seconds to refresh the page. I wonder whether that's because I have downloaded adblock so I'm not getting the stuff that used to be on the right hand side from google ad syndication?

its not too bad, last night it took 30 mins to read one page if i got on, but its getting better - it only took 20mins this morning

I couldn't get on at all for most of yesterday. Finally got a page up after 10 minutes at about 11.30 p.m. but the back button completely unbalanced it and eventually gave up at midnight. Seems better this morning. It has been very bad for most of the last two weeks.
 
Been really bad, I couldnt get on at all yesterday. I went and fed the horses, came back and page still hadnt reloaded! Pretty please admin, can you look into it??
 
I thought it was just me! Couldnt get on at all over the weekend, but its loaded ok just now, a bit slow but then my comp can be... perhaps its too many old posts clogging the system or something? Can you tell I know nothing about computers! lol! x
 
I know it seems a bit churlish to complain, but oohh does it drive me mad when I can use any other tinpot website and forum, but not H&H because nothing happens or its so SLOWWW! It is after all a forum run by one of the largest MEDIA companies in this country. A case of cobblers children being ill shod perhaps?
 
It has been slower for me ever since that "oodle" ad banner thing was put up... but the last few days have been ridiculous. I only got on today because instead of leaving my homepage tab to try to connect, I found the link on the H&H homepage and went round the long way. It's still stupidly slow...
I have never known a forum to have so many problems; even amateur ones seem to be quicker and more reliable!

Oh..it's positively whizzing along right now...20 minutes to load instead of forty

Hmmmm... have just updated my adblock add-on, the ads are still there but I'm wizzing through pages now.....just a coincidence perhaps?? It has been very annoying for me earlier though.
