Title: Ozpolitic is super slow - pages won't open
Post by Bobby. on Nov 19^th, 2024 at 5:21pm

This site has been faulty for about 3 hours.
Will this topic even post?

This post worked.

A dozen other pages wouldn't even open.

No problems at all.

Very fast today.

It must be something at your end, Bobbi.

It's working now -
other sites were fine.
I tried different browsers and Ozpol was the same.

At the moment we have 302 guests -
we always have a huge number like that.
I wonder if they are all truly guests or what?
They use up bandwidth.

No problems here, Bobby.

But, if there was a slowdown I'd hazard a guess and say it might have something to do with aquascoot's endless word salads praising Donald Trump in the America section. :-/

Perhaps it's time for him to think about setting up something like ilovedonaldtrump.com.au and take his word salads there (so we don't have to see them here)?

:)

I have tried 4 times to make a post in the Tool Shed
which has a small photo to upload.
It won't work.

I tried using an image host with an image link
but it's still not loading the page.
It says -

Time to sign out and come back later.

So - what was going on yesterday?

I did an experiment last night around midnight.
I tried 3 different browsers and all failed to connect but
when I used a proxy server it went straight to Ozpol easily.

I checked my firewall and Ozpol was not blocked.
This shall remain a mystery.
