Yes, it was yesterday for me. Bit faster today though. It's all these hundreds of folks trying to get in at the same time.

I too have found it slow at times but I assumed it was due to the number of people browsing the pages.
A problem I have found is trying to access the reference pages, which on occasions come up with a "page not found" message - the bird reference section today, at other times the tree section etc.

It's sluggish with me today & another thing which is happening to me is when I reply to post or start a new thread, after submitting, a message comes up saying i'm not logged in! After I log back in the post had been submitted

It's extremely slow for me today as well. It reminds me of the old dial up days. 
Other sites seem OK.. |

It was fine this morning but is running exceptionally slowly tonight, like Graham it's as bad, if not worse, than dial up.
All other sites are loading fine and a speedtest indicates my connection is okay.

Yes, WAB is really slow. I have reported this to Stu.

Slow here too. Painfully reminds me of my dial-up days. Must be because of the 734 online members, can imagine most sites would have troubles with that many on at the same time.

This is really odd How come everything is alright for me? Usually it's mine that runs slow so I post saying 'Is it just me...' and everyone insists that it is |

Mine has just freed up. It was terrible until a few minutes ago. Now all appears to be OK. |

It appears it's the same for the majority. It went from under 20 members online and a bit of tumbleweed in the forums to 40 members and some activity |

| | | Re: Is WAB running very slowly or is it my PC
mine is still pretty slow tho not as bad as earlier on - the top bit of the screen loads quickly but the forum bit then takes at least 5-10 secs to come up (earlier it was more like 30-90 secs)
