Welcome To The New Site!

[John Hjorth]

Hi Sanjeev,

 

Great move with the new "Hot Deals" forum here on CoBF! And thank for your relentlessly efforts - day in and day out, year in and year out - to keep all us CoBF members connected!

 

Talk to me about "Long Haul"!

 

-Again, thank you!

Are others having a lot of trouble with this site recently?  Its been a week or more of slow loading, occasionally timing out, and a lot of the message below:  "Too many connections"

 

Has this place outgrown the servers?  Am I the only one getting these?

Definitely buggy lately....

Same +1, constant "too many connections" messages and when it has been operating, its very very slow to load.

 

Edited to add: Ironically, the post to say that there are problems...took almost a minute to post

I've sent an inquiry to our host/service provider.  

 

I was having the same issue myself, but I thought it might be related to the flooding issues we’ve had in Vancouver, and some slowdown in service with our internet provider locally.  

 

Should have an answer shortly.  Cheers!

I got these issues too occasionally, so it is definitely not a local problem. The problem typically doesn’t last and is gone after a few minutes but before the change in the website design, this site was definitely more reliable.

 

That said, the redesign has grown on me.

Don't want to jinx it but it seems fast again this evening.  Was pretty unusable most of the day.  Thanks Sanjeev

It should be back up to normal speed.  Please report any issues on this thread going forward...that way I can have the IT guys inspect the problem.  Cheers!
