Board Problems!

MORDRICK THE MAD · 03-05-2001, 03:52 PM

When I try to send a message it has started timing out and my messages aren't appearing for ages after I've posted them, the first message i left took 5 attempts before it went through.
This has never happened to me before so I dont think its at my end.

Well I haven´t had any similiar problems, though it can take sometime before new posts appear, can be my sloppy modem though..

Mordrick,
I've had really bad trouble with this - it's not just flood control either. I hit 'reply' button, and the thing times out before processing my reply. I just had 3 attempts at posting a thread in the BGII forum before it let me. It seems to get so far then just stop.
I don't think it can be a problem with the Board though, if other people are OK. Must be something external to it.

It's not the board, its a problem somewhere between you and this server. I always can tell by using www.visualroute.com --it will do a trace route from you to this server, and it's usually packet loss, high pings and the like.

PS: Tonight its bad, because our provider is yet again having high packet loss. (This will give you the time-out's you're talking about- SO annoying...

Hmmmm. I've noticed a few replies on threads after I've posted tonight, but as I can't even see my posts let alone the replys I don't know what's been said.

I've waited ages, logged off then on, even gone on a new computer. Anyone got any ideas? Why aren't I seeing new messages?

FAIR DINKUM!
