PoA slowness?

[eman1200]

Is it just me or is it really bad right now?

 

[baboss]

Seeing same

 

[ArrowFlyer86]

same

 

[masloki]

Not me. Downright snappy.

 

[JOhnH]

Not me. Downright snappy.

Same here. Perhaps it cleared up before I signed on.

 

[eman1200]

yep, seems ok now

 

[GeorgeC]

We were ionized, but we're okay now.

 

[Half Fast]

The site keeps locking up on me this evening. Anybody else having trouble?

were you in before the lock?

 

[eman1200]

also no, not for me.

 

[eman1200]

really really really bad for me today

 

[SkyChaser]

It just took about forty seconds to load POA for me, but it went to this page at a normal speed.

Same here

Same here. Maybe the worst I've seen it.

 

[Lindberg]

Same here. Maybe the worst I've seen it.

It's regularly bad for me.

 

[Initial Fix]

Same here. I couldn’t load any pages for awhile this morning

 

[Skyrys62]

I sent this message in 2025.

 

[Dave Theisen]

Too many redundant threads bogging things down?

 

[JOhnH]

Currently on POA:
Total: 2,576 (members: 28, guests: 2,548)

Could 2,548 "Guests" be responsible for the slowness?

 

[Half Fast]

Website is c r a w l I n g again. Anybody else seeing a slowdown?

 

[eman1200]

It’s been on and off awful for a while.

 

[Dana]

It’s been on and off awful for a while.

Same here. Seems ok at the moment.

 

[GeorgeC]

Those responsible have been sacked.

 

[Half Fast]

Still slow this morning.

 

[Half Fast]

Iranian hackers again?

 

[Tarheelpilot]

Probably a denial of service attack from the pilotsplace or purple.

 

[Half Fast]

Seems to be working well now.

 

[Bob Noel]

Probably a denial of service attack from the pilotsplace or purple.

possibly bots that are now being kept out of forum-that-cannot-be-named. That forum used to have thousands of "guests" but now has zero.

 

[Chrisgoesflying]

Those responsible have been sacked.

What? @Jim K has been fired?

just kidding.

 

[Jim_R]

Seems to be working well now.

I haven't noticed any troubles over the last couple of days, but just got hit a minute ago by a page load timeout, so it seems to still be happening intermittently.

 

[Half Fast]

Same here.

 

[eman1200]

What? @Jim K has been fired?

just kidding.

He’d have to be responsible first.

 

[Chrisgoesflying]

He’d have to be responsible first.

Are you taking the blame for him?

 

[Half Fast]

Locking up again. Just had two pages time out.

Maybe....?

 

[GeorgeC]

I sensed a disturbance in the force as well, but they must have been in and out in eighteen seconds like Smithers.

 

[Half Fast]

Site is crawling and locking up again.

 

[Dave Theisen]

This seems fishy.

 

[Bob Noel]

This seems fishy.

为什么？

 

[FPK1]

I noticed that usually between 2030 and 2230 Pacific Standard Time the forums are very slow to open. Sometimes I just give up and abort. Other times I'll wait a minute or two and a forum finally opens...

At first I thought it was my internet at home. However, I'm away from my house and it's happening here too.

Maybe some sort of update or backups taking place? It really is getting obnoxious.

Note: I'm accessing POA via Tapatalk

 

[flyingron]

I will not answer issues with Tapatalk. It's full of bugs which make it a pain in the ass on this site. It barely limps along in normal operations.
It's impossible to debug because it blows up when you put the site into test mode because of coding bugs on their end that they refuse to fix.
