Took about 30 minutes to post this up until I hit "Post", but you probably know this.

It's up and down like you-know-who's knickers on paynight.

Right now it is fine; a hour or so ago I was like Rifleman62.

The 'high stress' menu has come up again just now. Anyone else getting this same feature?

Actually it is nice and quick, the 'old normal,' from here in Texas, right now.

But as I said before: up and down at, seemingly, random.

OWDU, it shouldn't be 'high stress' during the day like that - even if it is early. I'll check into it. Thanks for the heads up.

Mike, FYI I got site under stress when I went to check "new replies to your posts."

Cheers

Well the site seems to be working perfectly for me today ... knock knock knock ...

But, for the last two weeks I have had nothing but issues with it. I've spent umpteen hours here pressing "refresh" in absolutely futile attempts to get pages to load. I've managed to get only a few posts to take out of the dozens I've attempted.

I've been getting "scripting" errors, "server time-out errors", "server under heavy load" errors amongst a few others.

All my other sites have been working fine.

Today though --- seems good, so I am finally getting to read those threads (lots of them!!) that I've only been able to get the first post to show up for over the past couple of weeks.

As a side-note, I have this site set into my trusted sites too ... yet my computer is still blocking some scripts from it ... a google search says that's because of problems with the site's scripting rather than my settings (which I input into the TT) ??? Anyone know how I can get that confirmed that it isn't "me" or recommend how I can fix it?

Fine here (Dallas, TX) at 0740 (Central) too.

Are you on your own personal computer on the internet, or a DND PC on the DWAN?  You referred to "TT", which usually means trouble ticket, which would suggest a DWAN PC, and you would have very little to no control over the firewall/browser settings in that case.

If you're on your own PC, what OS/browser are you running?  This site should run just fine on browser defaults, and that includes IE 7 and 8, Firefox, and Google Chrome - all of which I use on a regular basis.

I'm on a personal laptop.

I'm running Vista (only because it came with the laptop). IE8 (in compatability mode because the army.ca screen is all f'd up when not in compatibility mode). It is running on browser defaults and has been added to my trusted sites.

Every other site and forum that I visit --- works perfectly fine.

It's only dot cee eh that does not. It is today, but the past two weeks have been absolute heck.

I use some six different computers at home and work on four different regular Internet connections  both wired and wireless including one dedicated T-1 at work, running everything from various Mac OSX flavours to XP to Linux on one dual-boot machine and the hang time for this site on days it decides to be pokey is consistently awful in an entirely inconsistent way - meaning when it's slow, it's unusable for any of my computers on any of my networks at any physical location so it's the site's problem, not the user's. I also suspect it's a scripting issue.
