    Yep, been having trouble on and off for ages. Sometimes I can't access the site at all, other times when I do, it's amazingly slow. Tonight for example it's taken near 30 minutes of trying before I could get on. It's only this site as well.




    Cheers,Greg.

    Mines fairly slow most times, and doesnt load up pages correctly, but the worst is when i get a PM, it takes upto an hour to load.

    its something to do with the server. I think i read somewhere that they are changing servers/hosting, so hopefully that should fix it!

    Slowest site to load for me too. period.

    Often pages don't load, even after 15 or more minutes.

    Ironically it has taken me about 1/2hr to read this thread and another 10 mins to post .
    Sometimes it is ok and pages load normally, sometimes it is slow and it says in the bottom left corner of the page "Waiting for" followed by whatever page you are trying to access and sometimes it just says it can't open the page.

    Guys.. we're currently in the middle of upgrading to a new hosting server... things will get better real soon, if you can just hang on a little longer. We've unfortunately come accross a few snags during this process, which has dragged out the timeframe somewhat.

    How about all the guys that are not finanical club members donate $1 to the club for using the forums. That would be over 10,000 bux and we would have the best darn forum around

    Im sure mods could post bank details for all the whiner's...........
