Is it me or GJ today is sluggish... since yesterday the server was un-pingable (also tested with other websites ismywebsiteup.com or something) ... I thought it was maintenance so sure ..... this morning it was up and running fine, then after a few clicks the site is some what more sluggish than usual.....

before some one jumps in and say clean you cache and reboot..... I don't cache anything and computer is rebooted. My connection is decent fast.......

GJ slow when posting?

Has anyone else found GJ slow today when posting? I can view relatively fast (normal speed), but after clicking submit for a post, GJ drops down into a creeper gear.

Anyone else experiencing this today?

Yeah I couldn't even connect 90% of the time this morning... I sent a message through HAMB and Ryan said they are doing server upgrades... Though I can't imagine how it would take all day to do so...

Trouble accessing GJ

Starting yesterday, when I attempted to access GJ from my computer with Firefox browser, I got a message saying the server could not be found. Upgraded to latest Firefox, cleared cache and cookies and still could not get in. Then I upgraded Adobe Flash player which seems to have solved the problem. I could get in from my Kindle, so I am posting this in case others are having trouble.

there is a thread on here . Ryan is upgrading the servers, that's likely your issue. plus it's on the slow side too

No, the problem was that Firefox was blocking the load due to an outdated version of Adobe Player. Unfortunately the obviously displayed error had nothing to do with the problem.

Not only is it slow and sluggish but i couldnt access it at all last night or today. Been trying from safari on my phone.

Came home and it works on my laptop but safari still wont load it. says server not found.

SO there is still some issue with mobile browsers...

I noticed slowness last night, it happens often enough that I just patiently wait. It took as long as 10-15 seconds after some "clicks", but never longer. All seems fine from this location this morning.

Slow for me so I decided to clear my history. Cleared up immediately afterwards. I'm sure it was the server upgrade but my 16,500 browsing history wasn't helping.

Great to be back...I actually thought I was denied access to the site!
Then common sense kicked in and I realized I've been a good member.
Everything for me is back to normal here in the Chicago suburbs.
Thanks to Ryan and all who work in the background keeping the site running!

Yeah i though the same thing.

Then had to remember if i did anything bad.

Then tried proxy server and got in, signed in and knew then i wasnt banned.

This told me it was a server issue with mobile formatting and syncing.

All is good now on mobile as my phone can access it again.

It's deadly slow for me this morning. Other sites seem fine. Anything that requires a response from GJ is taking 20-30 seconds!
