I have had sporadic problems accessing this site yesterday and today. Is it me? I haven't had problems with other sites I've visited. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

It's not just you - the site has been very slow this afternoon and evening.

Hopefully the new hardware will be installed soon.

There's not one day that goes by that I try to go to this site and it fails to load. I check this site many time a day, and usually 2 out of those times I am too frustrated to keep trying. It is annoying.

I think the admin may have moved it yesterday, because I couldn't hit it all day. But no problems now.

I think Ryan did also. It and the RX7/Protege forums were both down all day.

i can't browse this site for more than about a half hour before i get a page that doesn't display, and it's slow all the time. Today's cool problem is that it won't load the main graphic at the top so I can't browse multimedia because it won't load any of the posted pics until the stuck one finishes, which it never does. This is easily the worst forum i've ever used.

No success getting to the site on Sunday, and I just have been able to gain entry 1/2 hour ago.

Glad to be back!

Thanks for all of your feedback. I'm not complaining, because I assume a lot of work goes into maintaining these forums. I just wanted to make there wasn't something weird with my ISP or firewall.

Yes, I find it very frustrating. I've been having intermitent access issues to this site for weeks. Some times it is very slow and other times the pages just don't come up at all.

My problems stopped once I changed the address from
www.RX-8Forum.com to www.rx8club.com
