Connection to Dgrin is Slow

In the last week or so my connection to DGrin has been
very difficult to get and hold. I'm on cable internet and use
Firefox, BTW.

It takes me several attempts to bring up the site (Page
not found) and I keep losing connection when I finally
get on. I will copy this message to the clipboard because
when I go to Submit I'll probably be disconnected.

I have no such problems with other sites.

Sumpin' going on?

    i seen no strange things last week

    maybe your IP , or your PC [ i think the latter ]
    i assume you have a decent firewall + antivirus

    i always use Ccleaner
    its free , and solves a lot of these weird issues

    If either was the case, I would expect the problem to be
    present with other sites. It isn't.

    There have been some technical issues of late with Dgrin.

    In the future, if you want to confirm the status, just go here: http://www.downforeveryoneorjustme.com/dgrin.com

    Accessing DGrin.com from San Francisco area this week has been difficult. Site loadings seems to take forever sometimes.

    Just FYI...

    MOD EDIT: I have merged two threads together beginning here.

    How is your overall Internet speed? With lots of people on vacation and playing with new toys my entire Internet connectivity is slow, not just to DGrin.

    It's not just you Tony, Lately, the last week, also the same issues here, hit and miss. 24 meg down speed, so it's not me. At times the site won't even load. The last 36 hours have been fine though. Linux and Firefox.

    Other sites load normally

    Still very slow here. A little faster than a few days ago, but it is the second slowest site I visit. Sporadic though. One moment it takes a quarter second, and the next click will take 15 seconds or time-out completely.

    Intermittently slow for me here in the SF Bay Area. It's good at the moment, but has been crawling on and off all day.

    DGrin's been crawling intermittently parts of the day for me here. Probably 5 requests have timed out.

    EDIT: Problems seemed to go away much later that night.
