How has this site loaded for you lately?

[Canis Lupus]

Another week, another new poll ... This new poll is rather easy, and will prove to be very helpful to the staff and I in the next few weeks.

We have been getting emails about how the site has been sluggish as of late, and we need to know from you regular visitors how it loads for you personally... this will help us ascertain if OTS.Net is once again outgrowing the server. So consider this a survey rather than a poll ;)

So, how has OTS.net loaded for you in the past few weeks? Please be kind to include how fast your connection is :)

Sometimes it doesn't load at all or I get a "server too busy" error.

I'm on a T1 or T3 or something

[redwench]

lots of server errors, even at odd times. fairly slow when it does load. dialup.

[SpecOpsHoov]

Loads fine for me on dialup...

[Null Actor]

Occasionally takes a while to respond, and I'm on god's own broadband.

[Bobaroo]

It has been slow, but nothing that I can't stand. Some days are worse then others, but it doesn't seem that bad yet.


I am on cable

[jungles_mcbeef]

Runs fine on satellite

[Ocean]

im kinda a regular now, and ive only gotten one "server to busy" error, and that cleared up in 20 seconds.

[nocode]

Some days are better than others, but for the most part, load times are fast and consistent on my Satellite connection.

[Outlaw]

Loads fine for me, never had the "server to busy" error on this site either. I'm on a 4Mbit/128Kbit cable connection. I probably visit at other times than most people though.

[SKYHN]

I get the "server busy" quite a bit. Sometimes it loads very slow. 1228/246 DSL.

[chaosisreality]

cable, i always get it good on IE but sometimes in moxilla or netscape it times out.

[ElmStreet]

several times of server busy. sometimes those menues on top at home page show no pictures, just x instead.

i am on cable.

Ditto.

[ZeRo_MaXwInG]

Server too busy rarely. Otherwise the loading is fine.

[TwiztidJuggalo]

there are some periods the site doesnt even load, i get the page not found error when i go to any OTS area

[trekpsycho]

Never had a problem with it loading at all. I find it to be faster than some other sites. I'm on (akk-phtt) dial-up.:)

[NyGulkuk]

I get OTS cannot be found early in the day when I try to come here, but later in the day or at night it loads fine. Dial up 53333bps. Happened before I got a new modem too.

[webgator40]

This past week it seems to becoming worse as far as loading OTS at all.
Comcast Cable 1756/287

[danglier]

would'nt load at all today(4pm/6pm) till now, got up to 5 notches on the load bar and stalled, coming in htis time though was as quick as ever, mind you it is 4.44am in the morning, probably hardly any on it.

[Ocean]

i couldnt access it for an entire day, ending now

[NyGulkuk]

I got in with no problem this morning (I always use Moz and FB), loaded right up. Strange, because usually early in the day I get the can't be found message. Glad it seems to have cleared up.

[Whifflebat]

Works fine for me, and after being on another forum that took forever to do anything it was so overloaded, this one seems like a speed demon.

Some crazy fast college broadband here.

[redwench]

it was down most of yesterday, its just making up for it.

[chaosisreality]

maybe the past month or so, I've been getting it pretty craptaculairly, but i just switch browsers and it works a bit better.

[AltronHGX]

SITE BE LOADIN: AWFUL >:(

[Phate]

Loads fine at school (T1)
Loads fine at home (Dialup)

[Just1nCase]

The pages loads up quickly, but the icons doesn't seem to show up instead it is replaced an red "x". By the way, I have Pacbell DSL.

[arturo238]

there is some trouble with loading but nothing overly terilble

[tekkumeep]

Usually fine when I sign it from work or internship (T1 and cable), very few problems with dialup from home. However, there will be days where I'm automatically recognized when I arrive, others where I have to login, and still others where I'm recognized upon arrival - then amnesia sets in after I've looked at a couple of pages & I'm asked to login again - then I just go back to the user preference page and "walla", I'm a known commodity again. Odd...and it can happen regardless of where I'm connecting from.

[bLaCkOuT]

Loads fine for me at work or home speed wise ... however up until today I wasn't able to get any of the images to load right at both locations.

Its fine now *shrug*

[stoole]

The last two days, it has loaded fine on a computer with a cable connection and IE 6. On an old laptop (P133 with not much RAM) with dialup and running Windows 95, Netscape from 1997 (maybe 4.0?), it takes pages minutes to load if they load at all.

[Andrew7689]

Hello

So far the site has been fast, you may have to wait about 6 seconds, but that is no problem. Now if it had of been 30 seonds or more then yes, that would of been a problem

I have 512 k, broadband

Regards

Andrew

[psd#1]

Sites fine by me. I access on cable and also on T1... never seen any errors.

[Oldcrocd]

Loads just fine for me

[compukeith]

Well, lets see... a thread from six months ago. Does it still apply?

Anyway, loads fine and I'm on crappy old dialup (but connected at 50.6kbps)

Fine at Work and Home (T3 & DSL)

[Taliban]

I have no problem, only sometimes it get really slow to "submit" or "Send Message" even some times it doesnt send it but this i think its because of my LAN config here on my University (I hope they could use me but...) Damn!! I am arging to much, well anyway i think the site its very fast (On god LAN)

[Ack1027]

I'm running latest version of I.E. and using Comcast cable.


I've never receieved any error messages from this site. It seems to load fine. I think people may need to delete their history once in a while. Also I've done some Registry tweaking to get my internet going faster, so that might be it.

[armystud0911]

I'd have to say that for me at least, this is the fastest forum I ever searched. The loads, logons and esp. searches run as fast as google, and I have never received a server error.
College T1 (of course, I have downloaded as fast as 3.5Mps and that could be part of it!)
