Server busy, slow site

[bstone]

Just in the past few days I've been noticing the site has be VERY slow to load and sometimes doesn't load at all. More than a few times I get this "server busy" message.

I am in Boston and use Comcast cable. Thought I'd drop ya a line letting you know.

I too have been having the issue of it sometimes taking 5 minutes or more to load a page.

We can't always control connection issues with our forum from your end. Sometimes it's a database issue, and sometimes it's a connection issue. I'm still in the process of going through the entire database to see if the issue that KevD was having is present in any other accounts, but it takes time to go through 4500+ members.

But seriously.. we all appreciate the hard work you've been doing.. just don't let the site crash.. I'll go thru withdrawls.
