Forum times out often
« on: 17 September 2010, 09:35 »
I often get the page timing out when I try and access www.golfgtiforum.co.uk
It used to only happen occasionally but I'm getting it more and more. I don't have any problems with other sites.
I did a CMD prompt and received the following

Pinging www.golfgtiforum.co.uk [70.38.11.38] with 32 bytes of data:

Reply from 70.38.11.38: bytes=32 time=146ms TTL=53
Request timed out.
Reply from 70.38.11.38: bytes=32 time=145ms TTL=53
Request timed out.

Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
    Minimum = 145ms, Maximum = 146ms, Average = 145ms



Anyone know if the problem is at my end or the forums end as it has become frustrating now to try and access.

Mine will slow every now and again, failing to load sometimes. But then it will pick it's heels back up soon enough.

Maybe another 50p is required.

That's probably similar to mine. Slow at times and times out occasionally. Hitting refresh a good few times seems to get it going again. Then it bursts into life. However the time out periods are really annoying and not sure why it is only this forum I experience it on.

I've had this, it because the flux density has decreased in your Computer's Flux Capacitor. Replace it or buy another computer (PC World make the best ones).
