I thought it was just me - it's terrible atmSad

Have spent half an hour trying to open MN on my pc without success. Can get it on my phone though.

Voidka · 12/09/2011 18:56

Have HQ said whats wrong? Its seems to be fine for 10 minutes then I spend half an hour trying to load a page.

handsomeharry · 12/09/2011 19:07

Voidka, I'm exactly the same. I noticed this thread but couldn't get into it - it was taking ages to load. I've just gotten in through a link in Chat really quickly.

I think I might have to give up for tonight. I don't have the patience to sit for 10 minutes waiting for a board to open.

oldsilver · 12/09/2011 19:12

Um... I appear to be able to do stuff - like post, but it is Slowy McSlowdum who lives in Slowdumshire and apparently it's still waiting to load this page Hmm

oldsilver · 12/09/2011 19:21

... It's still loading Grin

WoofToYouTooLady · 12/09/2011 19:33

key might need winding perchance?

oldsilver · 12/09/2011 19:37

Little dotty circle still going round...

CroissantNeuf · 12/09/2011 19:46

This is a real PITA. Its just taken me 10mins to get to this page.

I keep getting blank white pages (or sometimes just the top of the MN page) whilst the little circle thing goes round..and round...and round.... implying that the page is loading. But it doesn't

oldsilver · 12/09/2011 19:48

... still going round...

oldsilver · 12/09/2011 20:00

I have arrived!

Feenie · 12/09/2011 21:12

It's so slow that there is no point in MNing at all tonight.

Why haven't MNHQ come on to explain this today?

OliviaMumsnet · 12/09/2011 21:23

Hello
Sorry to hear this again (and sorry to be late to the thread)
Can anyone say if there's a specific ad that's loading when the site does load?
Thanks
MN Towers

Feenie · 12/09/2011 21:32

Tonight, from about 6 o'clock, it's been whenever I tried to load Active Convos, Primary Ed or Threads I'm On, etc - anything I want to do, basically. It's slightly better right now, but has been unusable for most of the evening.

Haven't noticed any ads in particular, but that would be because most of the time the page hasn't loaded enough to see any adverts.

It's like a Dial up connection from the nineties!

oldsilver · 12/09/2011 21:36

Ditto what Feenie said ... it's basically trying to do anything, it hangs or half loads or just blank white page and that's active convos, refresh, I'm on. It improves a little then locks for 10 minutes.

ChickensHaveNoEyebrows · 12/09/2011 21:38

Having the same issues as Feenie. Is it a virus?

Tortington · 12/09/2011 21:42

same here - i was going to actually ask if there is a reason why fb always loads fast but mn is rubbish?

Tech · 12/09/2011 22:23

Hi, Sorry you're having troubles with slow responses. We are looking at it currently.

deemented · 13/09/2011 07:56

It's still running really slow for me - it's really hit and miss. Sometimes, like now, it's fine, but others it takes absolutely ages to load a page, and even then it doesn't do it properly. I keep having to refresh.

usualsuspect · 13/09/2011 08:02

Its the same for me ,it runs fine for a few minutes then slows down again
