Mornings between 5 - 6am (EST) lately the site has been slow responding. Has this happened to anyone else?

 

You really should be sleeping then

 

I've had problems in the evenings with this too!

 

Me too (sometimes) but late evenings between 11-2am (i know i should be sleeping )

 

Yep, every morning between 3:30 and 4:30 MDT. Sometimes won't respond at all, sometimes just really slow.
I suspect a server issue.

 

When the heck do you sleep

 

yep early in the morning site will not load been happening for weeks

 

Maybe NAM could use a mirror like other sites :-)

 

I have these types of problems around 8pm-12am. Tried to send a PM last night around 10pm and when I clicked to send it, it took about 5 minutes to send.

Yes, I do too most mornings. Just a few minutes ago it was taking a while to load as well.

 

The site was slower than molasses for a while this morning, then it was unavailable for about a half hour or more.

The server is evidently not a morning "person" of late. Around 5:30-6:30 EST, it's a real bear.

 

Yep it's every morning here maybe I'm just getting up to early

 

lol, it's never too early or too late to talk MINI or OT things on the NAM boards

 

You all need to get back to work

 

Yup, the connection is faster there!

 

NAM probably just needs a big cup of coffee

 

work...yeah i guess i should

 

I get up at 5:30 EST, get a cup of coffee, and hit NAM. Lately, it hasn't been there. Maybe they're backing up the database or something.

 

I thought it was just me
I am up at 5:30 am and I have on many mornings went to hop on the page and it doesnt open at all.
So i guess i am glad it's not just me

 

I think we pissed off the server. Or is it just me ? I'm having some sssssllllloooooowwwww response times this evening now !

:impatient

Maybe NAM is becoming so popular, the server can't handle all the traffic. Might have to tell all the newbies to restrict their posts to the hours of midnight and 2:00 am.

 

my connection has been pretty snappy all day (and I'm no where near where the servers are located).

 

Slow all day everyday since the original update (M|U loads 2-3 times faster than the fastest NAM has been since the update) SOmetimes cuts out all together, last thread like this the conclusion was nothing could be done so I've assumed I'm just SOL on this one :|

 

Can I come use your computer, Dave ??

This is the first time I've had slow response times during the evening. But it's been slow for me during the early morning hours for weeks now. In fact, in the morning, I often get a Windows message saying the website is unavailable.

 

Slowing down
