Recently i have been getting this sometimes when trying to get to the forum. It only happens with this page and for no apparent reasons. It happens once or twice a day (of the days i try to get on, which has been most recently) for a seemingly random amount of time at a random time of day. I have not had this issue before and wondered what I could do about it? Is it me or something to do with the forum?

Was happening for me about 3 out of 5 times I changed pages or tried to post but I think the site is re-indexed and all fixed up, see Z's thread on the subject! [img]smile.gif[/img]

edit: Oh YAH! I posted this about 2 seconds flat! Not bad! :D

Well, it's probably your connection. The forum is now fast and the bandwidth is excellent with loads of overhead. Check your Pings. Do a tracert too.

Interpreting Your Results
Ping Time Explanation
<=100 ms Great, typical of a high-speed cable or DSL connection.
100 to 200 ms Good, common for cable and DSL connections.
200 to 400 ms Fair, usually seen with dialup connections or faraway sites.
400 to 600 ms Slow, either the connection or the remote site is slow.
600 to 1999 ms Poor, high latency. Typical for satellite connections.
> 1999 ms No response, the ping was blocked or the site did not reply.

This is pretty good right? I'm not really a techie at all.

Seems to have stopped now, mayve it was what Cloudy said. I see how things go before bothering anyone anymore. Thanks for the suggestions.
