Well, I'm doing this post partly as an experiment, because the biggest server load is around lunch time.

I can assure everyone that there is no covert plot to discourage posters in general, nor any specific posters. I wouldn't have started this thing in the first place if that was my attitude.

We're working on the emails at the moment, which are the most urgent problem. After that it will be the server. I have been experiencing employee problems, which are hopefully fixing themselves.

No probs. Yesterday will do nicely.....

It actually seems to be very fast at the moment. Is that how others perceive it?

Yes. It was also like this earlier this morning.

I'm getting lots of 'server error' messages lately - two already in a relatively short session just now.

It always says at the bottom of the message that they're being reported to staff, or something to that effect. So I was assuming you knew about them, and am rather surprised to learn now that you're only just beginning to realise the extent of the problem.

I also find the loading speed varies, mostly it's okay but at times it can be very slow. Haven't worked out any rhyme or reason to it, though have assumed it happens at times of heavy traffic.

Have worked out now that I can mostly retrieve a post that doesn't go through by clicking on the back a page arrow, so I'm not quite as bothered as I was about it before I knew that.

Hope you are able to find a solution though, as it is detracting from the site's accessibility.

When I have trouble posting, I now put a note about that at the bottom of the post. Be assured that I'm doing it just to give you a running overview that the problem is ongoing. And yes, the site IS very slow.

I'm not technically au fait, so compared my capacity for posting/browsing on other sites. The problem IS here, Graham.

Sorry about this,-it's a headache for us, but a migraine for you.
