Don't think its me.... but the forum seems very slow tonight, especially photos loading.
I've been on another photo heavy forum, Scale Model Forum, and thats working fine and photos are working fine.
I've closed down the AGF and then re-entered the forum, but no different.
NB: I'm using my windoze laptop.
Maybe another 50p in the meter or get the hamster peddling a bit faster....
 
It’s been slow to load pages for a few days now, just me or a wider malaise?

iPad and Safari.
 
Yeah, I've had it on and off for few days, seems to be ok, mostly, then not ok, slow DL of pics, etc?
 
Gents, sorry for the catch-all don’t know who the duty tech is today. If there’s a better way of shouting out to you (other than adding my shout to a sale’s post) please let me know.

Really just a heads-up, it most definitely is not unusable just a little uncharacteristically slow to start or change pages at times. Perhaps a squirt of WD40 is all that’s needed. Pretty sure it’s not this end, everything else appears OK. Thanks.

Will have a check behind the scenes but none of the mods have been having issues which is strange 🤔
 
Thanks gents, much appreciated. As this thread isn’t being bombarded with others in violent agreement probably best just to shelve for the time being. I’ll give my iPad a talking to.

Have a go at clearing histories, cookies and cache's on your browsers etc.

See if that perks it up. 👍🏻

Mine’s been slow for several days now. I see a yellow wavy bar moving across the top of the screen. It’s usually when I send a reply to a post. Pretty well always view the forum on iPad. I tried clearing history etc.
 
Was offline for a bit, not long ago. Has some new software been enabled in the past couple of days?
I’m presuming I’m not the only one seeing a holding page, with “Please wait while your request is verified”.

I get this a lot and put it down to my poor internet connection but it also does it on 5G also plus the 300mbps internet at the dentist's (surprised they have not blocked shooting sights like others ).
I have cleaned the cookies , cache and so on.
 
Mods, I don’t know what widget you’ve turned off then on again but the forum is the best (speed wise) it’s been for weeks, thank you.
