Was it always this bad? Like you said, FR was unusable during the debates. The last time I remember not being able to use FR was 9/11 2001. Seems like over the past year it’s gone downhill.
FR has been very slow this morning at times. The hurricane threads and everything.
I’ll be amazed if I can get on here on election night.
Seems like over the past year its gone downhill.Yes, that is my perception of things as well.
I don't know the cause. Is it additional traffic? Looking at Alexa - seems like traffic is flat. Maybe it's the accumulation of all the posts for so many years causing the database performance to drop off. Or maybe there was some change to the software that caused a problem. Maybe they bought a bad server and it crashes a lot. I don't know, and no one seems to be talking.
