Forum constantly crashing!

[LennyPig]

Is anyone else experiencing problems with the Forum constantly crashing??!

It is now at the stage that every other click results in a "This website is not available - this website might be temporarily down or moved to a new address" message.

It is so infuriating!!! I have now completely lost several posts due to the forum crashing when I hit submit.

Note - My internet and ALL other websites I visit are working correctly.

Mine keeps taking me to yahoo "url is to large"

[LennyPig]

I'd imagine that is Yahoo's version of the same message (I use Google Chrome).

[LennyPig]

p.s. - this has been happening for at least a week or so now...

[Midge&Panda]

Today I'm having to log in every time I want to 'visit'.

[Poppy'sMum]

It's been doing the same to me too this evening, or been excruciatingly slow :(

[LennyPig]

Midge&Panda = Sounds like a different issue.

Poppy'sMum = Yes slow too! But been happening more than just today for me xx

[furryfriends (Excellent Adventure Sanctuary)]

I've only recently logged in and haven't experienced any problems so far. Does it seem okay now?

[Sue G]

I've been in and out during the day and not had any problems.

[Poppy'sMum]

It's still taking ages for pages to load for me :(

[LennyPig]

It is an intermittent problem FURRYFRIENDS... so yes it is working right this second

[LennyPig]

nope! spoke too soon! took 3 attempts to submit that last message

EDIT: ALSO 2 attempts to submit this one!

[Glynis]

I had an issue the other night but blamed my internet, which i now know i was right.......
I hope it settles down

btw it's lovely to see you LennyPig haven't for awhile xx>>>xx>>>xx>>>

It has not crashed for me!

[Kringeldec]

I had problems when using Google chrome- which is my main preferred browser. It kept timing out and saying no data received.

I now use Internet Explorer solely for using the forums and have had no problems so far.

Good Luck x

[first_time_piggie_mum]

Ive had a few problems over the last few weeks -

pages slow to load
crashing all together
having to keep logging in if theres no activity after say 5 minutes

[HairlessWillow7]

It's never crashed for me, but sometimes it's slow to load and occasionally it won't let me on the site at all.

I use Firefox

[daftscotslass]

No problems at all here, using Firefox.

[Orang]

I use Firefox and don't get any problems.

The problem might well be Google Chrome, I tried it for a couple of days and found loads of problems with it.

IMHO it's worse than Internet Explorer which is saying something.

[LennyPig]

Thanks for all the replies folks. Going on what folks have said I suspect it may be Google Chrome causing the issue. I'll add this forum to the ever expanding list of sites that I have to use FireFox for lol.

it's lovely to see you LennyPig haven't for awhile xx>>>xx>>>xx>>>

Thanks Glynis, good to be back... I'm an on and off visitor I'm affraid as I just have too many forums to keep up with, 3 of which I run so that explains my intermittent visits here!

The arrival of a gorgeous new little girly pig joining my herd has prompted the most recent visits.

BTW, after 2 weeks with the new piggie finally has a name! She is a grey and white Rex and we've called her Brillo!

[claire8234]

have you ever tried using firefox. This is the browser we use now and so much better than internet explorer etc.

If you keep getting problems it might be worth trying that

[LennyPig]

I use FireFox for certain sites when I'm forced to but really not that keen on it.

[BonBon2010]

I tend to find it slow when posting or trying to read threads..

♥ I use Firefox browser and have never had a bit of a problem. The only time there seems to be one is when the sky is cloudy for whatever reason; I have satellite Internet connection and that is dependent upon the sky.
♥ I do have to log in every time I want to visit, but that is because I have my browser set up to erase all cookies every time I log out. If this is a problem for some people, they might want to go to their Internet Tools at the top of the browser screen and check their cookie setup.
♥ Once in a while I will have that problem if there is a major event and everyone in the world is accessing the Internet at once. It is too much for some servers to handle, so I have to wait.
♥ To avoid losing posts, after they are written (or even frequently during the writing) Ctrl-A to choose all of the words, Ctrl-C to copy them, before the "submit post" is selected. That is what I do, and if the post doesn't go through and is lost, I can just Ctrl-V to paste it into the new attempt and there it is.

[BonBon2010]

I use firefox, always have, still niggles from time to time..

[guineagurl]

I take that back. It has been soooo slow.......

[Fluffy_N_Feathers]

I don't know about it just being a google Crome issue because I was having massive problems getting on earlier through firefox, IE and iPhone connections, so I gave up and went to work without my piggie fix :( sad times xx
