I just heard from meara, who says
- board has been slow and fickle on and off all day
- now unable to get in to www.buffistas.org
- was able to get in to buffistas.org (with no www), but was logged out when she got there
- even then, loading v. slow and couldn't post before timing out
other parts of the internets are fine.
Am having horrid time posting and refreshing the board this evening...as is Amych...
Huh. And now it's fine, AND apparently during all that slow waiting times, it was secretly posting our posts! Interesting....Fickle, fickle board!
I'm poking around right now, so response time may very well be fickle. I'm also going to wake up in the middle of the night and take the board down for a quick full database backup.
So I rebooted the server this morning. Let's see if things are a little zippier now.
[edit: apparently not]
buffistas.org (without the www.) seems to be moving at a more or less normal pace.
I can't get the www. version to even show up.
Things were super-speedy for a little while this morning, but it just took me AGES to log in.
[edit: That post took no time at all. Whee!]
It may be of no consequence but about 15 minutes ago, I was spontaneously logged out.
Logging back in was simple as the fields were pre-filled.
No speed or posting problems.
Make sure you check your profile to see if remember you is checked.
I don't know if this is an issue, but when I tried to get in, my fields were filled in with my old user name. Which ... seemed weird to me.
