Possible WAB problems

I seem to be getting problems with the WAB site with parts of the structure, tabs etc not being displayed. Some smilies seem to dissapear and it is terribly slow. The rest of the internet seems fine. Are we having some work done, or is it me?

Re: Possible WAB problems

Me too. Very slow to load pages and it often crashes my browser (firefox).

They're probably messing about with the servers. Maybe backing-up or clearing stuff out or similar.

Re: Possible WAB problems

Spoke too soon...it's just gone slow

I've only been for a few mintues during lunch, but I'll take a look at it tonight and see if anything is slowing it down.

Re: Possible WAB problems

Well it's Tuesday now and I still have the same problems. Is the work ongoing? Am I the only one?

Re: Possible WAB problems

no Kev, I've found WAB to be very slow for a few days now. When I click on a new thread there's a long pause before the page opens.

Re: Possible WAB problems

No idea what's been causing it, but it seems OK at the moment.

Lost? Huh. How anyone can sit and watch that I do not understand. They had the potential to make a great program, with a good varied cast but it is so "Soap Opera". Ruined I say.

Any how.
STU. I had to wait ages to put this post up. I gave up on all the others, they would just not load. While I am here......

1) Nice piccy John2 I expect a signed and framed copy posted to me Post Haste
2) If this site is not a dating forum. Why are their so many georgous lady members?
3) Dan. Put any fruit in a large pot and cover in rum. leave for as long as you can. It's fantastic

Re: Possible WAB problems

All seems ok to me, just a little slow, but my broadband has been downgraded from 2meg to a 1/2 meg so everywhere is slower, but not by much..........
