Looks like the site is a victim of its own success. Guess there's too bloody many of us having too much fun for the forums' bandwidth and or processing capacities. It's kind of like going to the men's room when a movie gets out. All the john's are filled, the line goes out the door and around the corner...and when you finally get inside, all you are is in the room where all the dicks hang out! It's a bitch when you got to go and it's waiting room only. You'd just hang it up and split, but you got to go when you got to go...So here I am, after another seemingly interminable wait to log in to the site, back for more forum action. Thanks for keeping the thing going guys!

[Balislinger]

I just got a few "Firefox can't find the server at www.bladeforums.comforums" messages.

I've been getting that off and on for a few days now.

I've been raising hell about this and people keep shrugging their goddamn shoulders.

I just got a few "Firefox can't find the server at www.bladeforums.comforums" messages.

Well. . .

I now think this is because most of my bookmarks were for http://216.26.177.84 instead of bladeforums.com. If I try to go to any of the http://216.26.177.84 bookmarks I get that message, but the bladeforums links work fine. Until today (yesterday now), both worked the same.

Off and on, slow then fast, slower then stop. Sometimes lightning fast, but it is driving one to drink, sorry to be reporting this, and I know Spark is doing all he can. Man does it make me upset. No doubt Spark is going to kill someone soon.

 

[on_the_edge]

It's the same way for me as well--happening again as I try to get here to post this.

 

[b.c.molin]

Just took 5 minutes for my reply to be posted!

Not good, not good at all!

 

[CarpScot]

I couldn't get on the forum for the last half hour or so.

I couldn't get on the forum for the last half hour or so.

For me it was 27minutes of frustration trying to get it to load!:grumpy:

[Phil Dwyer]

HERE'S WHAT I KEEP GETTING WHEN IT CAN'T LOG IN...

Connection Interrupted

The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.

The network link was interrupted while negotiating a connection. Please try again.

TRY AGAIN

 

[Rat Finkenstein]

I was getting connection reset while page was loading errors a few minutes ago.

Right, when it's working it works very well, even at my gf's (cheapo verizon dial-up). This gives me hope

But when it's not, blech.

Starting around 11:30PM MST last night I could get on the forum at all. I tried for about fifteen minutes and then gave up.
