FR site ... slow?
11-1-10 | Me

Posted on 11/01/2010 12:51:11 PM PDT by SMARTY

The FR site is VERY slow and herky jerky today. Can I expect it will be shut down altogether tomorrow? Or, maybe tonight?

Not a problem for those of us up here at the edge of the treeline (in Alaska)... and I’m 300 miles from the end of the road.

1. runs fine for me.
2. clean out your temporary internet files and cache lately?
3. reboot your router.
4. Kids just came home and they’re all on WoW up and down the street sucking up bandwidth?

Just tryin’ to help.

BUT ... it WILL be slow tomorrow night.

Slow? Nope. It’s actually posting too fast.

(I hate posting 10 minutes in the future. How do I know what I’m doing then? But hey - who am I to argue with the FR time clock.)

Dear SMARTY,

Please just be patient.

Not all of our agents have computers... it’s a budget thing.

The agents assigned to you only have steno pads; it takes ‘em a little while to copy down the information on which threads you’re reading and posting to.

If you’ll just support higher taxes, we’ll get ‘em faster computers and your right-wing forums will run a lot faster.

Sincerely,

Janet Napolitano
DHS

We’re a little slow today but I expect that with an important election tomorrow.

I think Jim better just buy John a burger over by the server site so he can eat there about 7:00 PDT as that is when I am predicting the crash -- LOL. I hope it only takes a re-boot and work-around.

Hello, Deputation of Jaffa, AKA DOJ Blogsquad.

You won’t stop us, try though you will.

Pizza or French Fries? Shower and put your clothes on.

Why would JimRob shut down FR at one of the highest traffic times? If some sort of maintenance had to be done, I imagine itd be a dead time after the elections.

Yeah—super-slow—all day.

Also:
Posted to FR blogs this morning 11am+...indicated it was posting, but failed to appear...I assume somebody disapproved of one thing or another...no notification...but wasn’t expecting one...experience.
