Life In 19x19

Just sayin'... From here in France, it's taking a long time to load some pages. This started this morning, when it took around 30 sec to get the unread posts page.

I just did a ping; it seems much slower than it should be:

It's been super slow for me, too, with some pages not loading at all (they've all loaded when I tried again 10+ minutes later).

Unrelated, but DGS is being ultra-pathetic, too.

Same here. Things have been funky for the past several weeks. Are we straining the server by chance? Just askin'

I lost my cookie but have had no other problems, page loads are fine.

Been posting more than usual today, speeds are fine.

Seems fine to me. hmm

It seems a troublesome day on the internets generally. I've had some general slowness here today, but I've also had general slowness everywhere.

One of the reasons that I am playing on L19 is that business on the net is dead.
