Did anyone else have an issue with not being able to get to the site for a few hours yesterday evening?

I had trouble most of yesterday.
Just hand over the chocolate...back away slowly...far away....and you won't get hurt....

Save the Earth... it's the only planet with chocolate.

I finally emailed Sam, who is still in charge of the hosting sometime a little after 22:00 last night. He fired off an email to the tech support. They SAID that they rebooted the server, but anybody in the telecom industry knows what that means. (refusal to accept blame) So far, so good. I do have some email points of contact now, so hopefully, I can get things fixed a little more promptly.

Ok folks...

I'm starting to get some pretty slow reload times for the site again.

This is what happened just before it totally crapped out last evening about this time.

Page load times have been normal to good for me all day. :clueless: It could be your ISP or whatever part of the net that connects to our server that your ISP uses or routes through.

We have had trouble on various sites all day.

Other half has aol for his email, and it's been horrible today. (I know...it's horrible everyday. :whatever:)

Don't know what's causing it....but it's frustrating... :banghead:

Nope.  Ping times to the site were fine.  Wasn't having the issue with any other site.  But the slow page loads here only lasted for a few minutes.

Freakin gremlins.
