    Default Can't get onto forum - server too busy

    Started last Friday night. Only occurs, obviously, at busy times eg. Friday evening, Saturday and Sunday afternoon and evening.

    Last night out from approx. 8pm to after Midnight. I can go anywhere else on the Web except this forum and its associated forums.
    Is this a temporary problem or is it going to be an on going issue?

    I've seen it a couple of times in the last week, both times in the early evening.

    If you find a post of mine that is missing a pic that you'd like to see, let me know & I'll see if I can find a copy.

    Yeah last weekend was bad for it. Took me all day to get an update to my restoration thread posted, damned thing would time out by the time I'd finished drafting.

    I got sick of sitting around doing nothing - so I took up meditation.

    I see it when a lot of people have logged on to start a thread or contribute to one to say that they couldn't access the forum

    I wonder if it is part of the outage problems that Telstra is having. The same thing is happening with other sites as well for me.

    When I experience the problem on the woodwork forum I can access other internet sites ok, so my problem is not with the ISP. The ISP may be having local problems where you are, however.
