GW has been running as slow as hell for me today. To the point it is unbearable.
Is anyone else having problems?

no
Running fine for me
Running fine for me... would suggest it's a problem at your end!! :D
Are other sites OK, GB?
I've not had any problems (well, very occasionally I have but it's rare and usually trying again is fine)
Other sites seem ok. Might try a different browser. Working ok now on my phone. This is good news because I'm sat in the cinema watching Winnie the Pooh!
You may (at points) experience very minimal loading issues... i.e. hitting reply, as the site pretty much runs on ajax throughout... but sometimes (as you'll know) it can get it's technical knickers in a twist... a simple re-click or refresh tends to work!
I've had this for the last 2 weeks on different computers and browsers. Soo annoying.
I just leave. Sometimes it goes back to normal.
Never had this with old GW tbh (:upset:)
Not sure if this is a "slow" issue, but I still have the same problem of a page hanging.
It isn't related to a specific button or menu, just when I click, the page says it's gonna load and then just freezes. When you try and refresh, a dialogue box comes up saying "are you sure you want to navigate away from this page".
I then have to select another page, and then go back to where I was before.
Defo not a problem on any other site I visit :unsure:
Hi... this usually happens when you've typed something into the new editor... we've also noticed that it can do it when you click on the post quick reply button (when actually trying to submit)....
I "think" it's linked to the auto-save function that's there (i.e. so if it hasn't saved, it'll warn you)... I'll have a look at the code and see if I can suppress the errors.
Getting some connection problems today, it's timing out.
A refresh sorts it out but not sure why it's happening.
hanging for me too on Chrome :coffee:
I'm raising it with my host now :)
Any joy on this?? Getting worse for me if anything.
You know when you click a link and the little "loading" bar comes up. Well it constantly gets stuck and hangs. Then you click on another link to try and re-navigate, and that does the same. So I end up clicking on any old link for ages trying to get it to load something, and eventually it works.
It's fine for a few "navigations" and then it does it all over again.
Pissing me off :angry:
Yeah I've noticed a significant delay too and it's not just my connection this time.
Yes, I think it's getting worse too. We did try something the other day but it doesn't seem to have helped.
Jofnn! Halp!
If anything it's got better for me.
Yep its pissing me off to but no doubt Jofnn can sort is out in his own time... like NOW!!! ;)
tbh - I actually seen an improvement after turning off the auto-save function...
I'll keep looking into it!
I'm having the same trouble LDG is having, sometimes one click isn't enough to open a link, it looks like it's loading but...it isn't.
An extra click or 2 is needed to open it instantly.
The fate of a nation is in your hands Jofnn. Your time has come, destiny awaits.
I think it's getting worse. It's hard to tell as it's so intermittent but I had to try twice to load this page and the 2nd time was pretty slow.
Pretty slow? More non existant atm.
Managing PM's is slow as fuck for me, takes ages which is quite annoying while trying to manage 40 football managers, at least 5 of whom are well, a bit thick
We're looking at it.
It could be we'll need to upgrade the hosting to a dedicated server, it seems the shared one Jofnn is using isn't up to it (although tbh I find that surprising as this isn't a hugely busy site so maybe something else is going on).
we're not oblivious to the problems though and we'll fix them asap so we can start to push the site.
I think the bottom line is the hosting Jofnn uses isn't up to it. We're looking at a dedicated server, if some of us split the cost between us it shouldn't be too onerous for anyone.
GW is much slower here than it was back home, if that helps.
Ill add my two cents,
Its very slow for me too. Sometimes the pages just lock up and I have cancel the window and open a new one just to get anywhere.
Good to see that its being looked at though.
Letters, why dont you set up a donation thread to help towards the cost of a dedicated server?
Im sure most members would contribute.
Thanks. We'll try to get this sorted asap. We may be able to monetize the site so donations won't be neccessary.
Certainly not sticking regularly for me, nor GW either :(
