| Anyone else having trouble... |
|
Accessing this site? It's running horrendously slow for me on my home PC, so slow that I haven't even been able to load the page(s). Seems to happen irrelevant of the time I try to get on, day or night.
I am at school right now, and RPGdot is loading slow, but at least I can get on here.
Is it my home PC? I don't have any trouble with other sites, but this one is killing my comp!

It might be your home internet connection.

On my sisters 56k modem I have a hard time loading the site during the day.

Appreciate the suggestions, guys, but it's not my connection. I'm on broadband, and as I said, I have no problem with other sites. I also play CoD with <50 ping on 32 ppl servers. (Dunno if that is impressive, but it sounded good..  )
It is only this site that has trouble loading, for some reason. Just curious if anyone else has been having problems, say, in the last month?

I access the site multiple times every day including some lengthy news runs which require a lot of interaction. There has been two or three times in the last month where the server was a little slow but those problems were definitely temporary. If you're regularly having trouble, it's not likely to be at this end - but it might not be yours, either. A dodgy router on-route from your location to the RPGDot server might be to blame for temporary problems.

Either a satellite uplink or a router/name server problem along the way. Had that too some time ago, I couldn't access the site and a score of other sites which were accessed via the same uplink/name server. At all.
When the name server was reset a few days later things worked again.
You might try browsing the site with an anonymizer. If that works better for you than it does now, it's definitely a name server problem.

Jaz I can figure out what an anonymizer does, I can even guess at how (in a non technical sense) it does it, but where does one get one, and how does one make it work?

The site was extremely slow for me once a couple of days ago, but other than that it hasn't been so.

To test it, just type the url you want to browse into the window on the page in the link below:
http://www.anonymizer.com/index.cgi
It's only a very limited approach, though. For real browsing you'd have to buy this one.
There's also JAP which is free (but in beta stage only):

Well, oddly enough, after posting this thread yesterday from university, it seems to be running better now at home. Strange..
Maybe it was just one of those router things going bonkers. I have no idea. just hope it has run its course and will not impede my surfing any more!! Thanks to all who replied..
