Yup, first time it happened I figured it was just on my end.

No.
It seems to be a system problem.

Hopefully it gets fixed.

It has been sluggish for a few days. Everything loads slow. Does anyone know what's going on?

It'll be cloud hosted so connection speeds to site will be top notch , we havent an explosion in traffic or anything to bottleneck it ,

So Imma guess database problems , getting low on space or needs reindexing or logs too big or something

Nope. Slow as shit for me.

Signed, million man.

It’s not a good situation because there’s no longer a site owner interested in upgrading or solving technical problems. I get the feeling Mod5 holds this place together with duct tape and paper clips.

That's what it looks like.

Good description.

Someone must be in charge, who’s getting rich off the ad revenue?

I've had no problems with the site.

My guess is that it will grind to a halt and fully crash soon, and sadly it will be no more. 😒

[–] curiousMInd101 (4490) 5 months ago

That's a sad thought. This is like the only place you can have real conversations with people.

It's currently fast, but I've experienced the slow load times too

[–] curiousMInd101 (4490) 5 months ago

It took nearly a full minute for me to to open my notifications, but when I posted a comment it was about only about 15 seconds.
Last night for a few hours it was working pretty fast like normal. It's kind of hit or miss.

It's happening again on my end. Must be their server.

[–] curiousMInd101 (4490) 5 months ago

Same here. It's still very slow for me. The worst part is submitting a comment, realizing you've made a mistake, and then having to edit it. You end up waiting 30-60 seconds for the initial submission to go through, another 30-60 seconds for the edit to process, and then another 30-60 seconds for the updated submission. It’s a real pain in the ass.

Ugh, it's so annoying.

Failing disk, bad sectors.

reply

[–] curiousMInd101 (4490) 5 months ago

That's an issue you might encounter if you were hosting it yourself on a physical server at home, but this site is probably hosted on a virtual server in a data center somewhere. Bad sectors on a disk drive are unlikely to be the problem since the infrastructure usually handles those issues automatically.
