rhahn427 Posted November 24, 2012 Report Share Posted November 24, 2012 for the past several weeks this site has become the sloooooooowest site .......... from both here and at work .......... I thought is was just my computer but it's the same at work and I don't see anything that's changed. Also when you hit the view new content the 1st time it shows no new content ....... you have to hit it again to get the new content Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redg8r Posted November 25, 2012 Report Share Posted November 25, 2012 TU is getting pounded by spambots atm. Pretty smart, given they expect staff to be out for the holidays. over 1200 registrations blocked today alone and theyre still trying, all different IP's Our spam monitoring service is working, as none have gotten thru, but it is taking up alot of resources to do so. I'm watching the server and making adjustments as necessary, you may see sporadic downtime while I reboot services. sorry, but its about all I can do for now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhahn427 Posted November 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2012 yeah but this has been going on for much longer than the holidays Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Painter1 Posted January 31, 2013 Report Share Posted January 31, 2013 It seems to be getting worse. It takes up to a minute to switch topics and I get a lot of "Oops" messages also. I cant imagine what a pain it must be to keep the spammers at bay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Da big tuna Posted February 1, 2013 Report Share Posted February 1, 2013 I find myself using it less and less because its a pain to get around on the site. Its too bad, I used to reference this site 3-4 times a day.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weedsnager Posted February 2, 2013 Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 by far the slowest site i visit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigerfire Posted February 4, 2013 Report Share Posted February 4, 2013 Things are VERY slow for me. Also, when I Google the site and click on one of the forums, I get some weird pop-up and directed to another site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redg8r Posted February 10, 2013 Report Share Posted February 10, 2013 The popup/redirects are coming from tapatalk.... tapatalk is a phone/tablet app I personally use and enjoy, however due to these issues, it's being removed from the site. I have secured a faster server and everything is being moved as we speak..... Rest assured this will not be a smooth migration and will more likely get worse before it gets better, but it will get better. I apologize for all the latency, Late winter early spring is our busy time of year and a terrible time to do this, but it is what it is. Thanks for the kindly worded criticism, as I'm sure many of you would like to wring my neck. Just know I'm doing the best with what I have.

rhahn427 Posted February 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2013 (edited) Jerry ............ the slowness is frustrating but the site is soooooo good that you are forgiven ........ especially now that it is wonderfully fast ........... now if you could just get rid of the problem of the site showing "no content" the first time you hit view new content button Edited February 21, 2013 by rhahn427 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
