Is MN broke?

[usualsuspect]

Its extremely slow and keeps going off line

Wow, that's weird, because I was having those problems all last week.

I assumed there was a problem with the cables under the ocean [big thicko emoticon]

NN, may I congratulate you on your mastery of a second language

do you know any other foreign languages ?

Nope, only computer nerd languages

impressive, nonetheless

and completely unintelligible

I like how GapsAGoodUn explains it:

What I think has happened today is:
problem with the cables under London

I've occasionally had only the words loading and once had the page not load so I lost my post I tend to open all on one page.

Seems fine this morning!

I also don't do pages, BTW.

And the CSS not loading is not a packet issue. It's a MN local server issue.

It's better for me this morning too - I think Tech broke summit and scurried off to fix it in the night but is keeping schtum. Anyway let's hope it's OK this eve - if not let us know! Thanks for all the input and apologies for your troubles (for all those who've offered clever suggestion, txs and someone much smarter than me will have a look!)

Suggestion: Make Tech's posts red! So they understand the urgency when the site doesn't work right!!!!

Who is with me?!?!

Sorry please don't hate me... I just tried to post and got an error saying my user name and password were wrong. Didn't change anything and pressed post again and it went in.

It is NOT better today. It is so slow it is unworkable.

terribly slow here.

Slow here too. Keeps timing out. I might have to do some work.

It hideously slow for me, I am on pages (100 messages a page).

Doesn't work at all on the mobile version.

It is like going back in time.

Definitely still slow, although it's not quite timing me out. Also on 100msg/pages here.

Slow and losing CSS again.

It keeps breaking for me too and getting strange old style lists without CSS, or saying 'servers taking too long to respond' type thingy.

Pleeease sort it, techy people :)

I've had no problems and I'm never off here!

How odd.

I'm the favourite.

I am getting fed up with this now. Very, very slow.

Slow, slow, slow here too. Although some may argue its because I am in Scotland and we only just got telly and electricity....

Painfully slow again today, note the "again"

Might go over to NMs.

vvslow for me still but not timing out yet today

Hi everyone,

We're currently investigating the problem. We hope to have it fixed soon.
