NO!  I'm not asking if I'm slow!  I know the answer. :laugh:

When I click on the "Show unread posts since last visit." and "Show new replies to your posts." link they have been insanely slow to load lately.  I know my troubleshooting.  This occurs on multiple networks, multiple computers and/or devices, different operating systems, etc... 

The search feature has been awfully painful lately, too.  Is anyone else experiencing this?

Based on the recent downtime post, it looks like we're hosted by Google... If others are experiencing this, could someone please contact Google about this?

Many thanks!

As far as I know, we are hosted by Go-Daddy. That's who I pay for hosting, anyway. Admin is out of commission for a week, but will likely address your question when he returns.

It's almost always slow for me.

OK.. My bad.  Go-Daddy.  But it shouldn't be as slow as it is.  I would see what they have to say about it.  Thanks for responding!

Admin will be back Monday or Tuesday and will likely see this thread and check it out then.

VERY slow here... but I lost the good modem during a storm and am using the old backup that always slowed things down so I figured it was just the modem issue..   Yeah, I have a SlowModem, but not THE SlowModem..    ;D

I also noticed it being slow when logging in and retrieving threads. Compared to what it's normally like.

Are people still experiencing this problem? 

I did some cache and database cleaning on our end,  but if it is a hosting issue, that won't help much.

Having problems navigating IN the forum.
I can reach the home page just fine, but when I try to open a catagory or a post I get:

Google Chrome could not load the webpage because www.worldwidebeekeeping.com took too long to respond. The website may be down, or you may be experiencing issues with your Internet connection.

Thanks

Haven't had it time out. Have had a couple of delays of about 30 seconds, but it loaded before timing out. It may be an area problem.

ray, we had some intermittent issues with wwb server last month (go daddy).
this year i have also experienced some issues and slowdowns with my isp provider. 

try this, when you get that message, "Google Chrome could not load the webpage because www.worldwidebeekeeping.com took too long to respond. The website may be down, or you may be experiencing issues with your Internet connection."
google 'website down'.  go to a couple of these websites and query worldwidebeekeeping.com.  these sites will tell you if our website is down or whether it is possibly a network issue with your isp provider.

like iddee said, it may be an area problem with your provider or some other issue with your connection. 
hope this helps.

Thanks for the quick responses. WWBk is the only website I have (technical) trouble with.

This is crazy! I posted 2 replies @WWBk that loaded almost instantly. Two of your advertisers loaded almost instantly. I just attempted to post a reply to this SUBJECT and timed out. Backed up to it, modified it and tried to post and timed out. I thought maybe I was double posting, nope.

hmmm.  Seems to be OK up here.  sometimes there are DNS issues that cause sites to appear non-functional on the client side
I'm starting to think that the bees are keeping me...

Things are working fine for me here, but when I go on kijiji to scope out bee stuff it bogs down.
