I suspect it has something to do with the adds. The site was actually loading normally for a little while earlier today and I noticed that those big side adds were no longer there.
Now the adds are back and it's slow as hell again.
Maybe it's just a coincidence. Hopefully HTF sorts this out soon. Has anyone from the site acknowledged the issue yet?
Last night around 11:00 or 11:30 pm it was as though the site was down for maintenance or had even lost its internet connection. Finally, on the browser, I had to log in (I'm always logged in) and then most content couldn't be found. On tablet and phone, Tapatalk couldn't access the site at all.
It's been happening intermittently in the last few days to me too. It becomes very very slow for awhile, then later it's normal. I could also be describing me without coffee.
Same story here. I do my last surf of the site usually around 10 p.m., and for the last three or so nights, it has been sluggish to the point of madness. I finally gave up and moved on each night.
Mornings and afternoons are no problem at all for me: instant loading of information.
I was fine on the Android this morning when reading and posting the above, but I just hit the bookmark (for my new content) on my computer, and got: "Sorry, no new content found."
Two settings in the filters had changed, miraculously, by themselves.
I'm really sorry to hear about these problems. Since I go to bed early, I usually don't browse late at night. I will definitely get with our server guy to see what we can do.
I think I found part of the problem, at least on my end.
Whenever somebody makes a new post, you have to refresh the entire site. When multiple posts show, you have to refresh more than once. Sucks when you are in a thread and trying to post yourself.
If there is a backlog, merely "refresh" doesn't work. You have to exit, then re-enter. I would guess a few people doing that, at once, creates problems.
