Today, March 9, the loading time for Fluther is taking much longer than usual on my computer.

Yes mine is very very very slow.
YES!! I thought it was just my laptop acting funny..
I have no idea why though…
Yes. I’m glad it’s not just me.
Yeah. And apparently I caused one thread to become italicized. I didn’t I swear! I’m an innocent by-flutherer.
I thought maybe it was my Iphone, but it is still loading slow on my laptop. Glad I’m not alone.
I hope it doesn’t crash again,,, lol.
lol, aww no, don’t you two start again……
oh come on @queenie with sucky loading times and weird formatting I need to be a bit punchy.
@tranquilsea I have the power to cross out all you say, so watch it! :D Mmmwwhhaahahaha! You are forewarned! :D So what’s html anyways?
@everephebe that would be kind of cool actually. <off to hit send and wait 5 minutes for my post to show up>
I’m on my velcro iPad7 and it’s working just dandy, thanks.
Ha, I was wondering if it was just me!
[Mod Speculates:] There has been a renewed interest in achieving the “Cake in the Frizzer” award. Opening up those huge old threads puts a big load on the servers. It is likely causing the slow load times.
When folks finish their quests things will get back to normal. :D
It’s pretty slow here too. I just click whatever link I want again, a few seconds after I click the first time. If that makes sense.
I want the Cake in the Frizzer!!
@Seelix I’ve been doing that two. Click wait 5 seconds then click again and the page generally loads.
Yes, slower than normal and some odd errors in PMs like one person I don’t see any of my previous messages when I respond
Slow here and @Mariah claims it’s all my fault!
I’m one of the guilty parties, opening the frizzer page and trying to figure out that award. <hangs head in shame>
~sort of like the old wisdm when it was dying~
@woodcutter Awwwwww, don’t remind me of how sad that was!
@Dog No, that does not explain why is is happening every hour of the day for two days, so far.
Oh it was not slow for me yesterday. We dropped a note for support. They should be looking into it.
@YARNLADY It’s been slow for me today & yesterday to. I just happened to see your question…otherwise I was going to go back to attempting to clean my hard drive again today. I’ve cleaned my cookies, rebooted, cleaned my hard drive, rebooted…NOPE it’s Fluther for me.
Soooooooooo sloooooooooooooow
I was just going to give up and come back later but if this has been going on for a couple of days, they’re going to start losing people fast if this doesn’t get fixed.
See ya later…....
Let’s throw a sacrifice in the sea for Dr. J!
I heard that all IT devices were taking a day off in honor or the last flight of the Discovery, but that was two days ago.
Correction, the final flight ended today – so that explains it.
It is still slow for me and it says @YARNLADY asked this question 10 hours ago. I thought it was just my local server but now that I think about it, only Fluther is slow everything else is fast as usual.
You’re all just noticing this? For the past month or so it’s been variably slow for me. It speeds up a bit, slows down a lot, and everywhere in between. It’s also timed out when bringing up the page. This has been going on, I guess, for almost a month now.
It seemed a bit better after that down time a few days ago, but yesterday was kind of draggy.
I actually don’t mind it when Floofy bogs down, gives me time to get my work done and play my harmonica.
@Cruiser WOW… you play the harmonica?,,, neat. : )
I also don’t mind it when fluther is slow. I figure if people want to be here badly enough, they will deal with the slowness as they would with anything else that’s mildly irritating- with a little patience, and extra coffee and chocolate.
@queenie You would not say that if you heard me play! XD
@Cruiser Seriously, I LOVE the harmonica.
I mean i think it sounds nice even when my 2 year old sister plays it : D
I’m sure you sound better than her… lol.
Yesterday (the 9th) was pretty bad. Today so far seems a little better. Let’s hope it stays that way.
Yes it is- thanks to awesome Jellies!
