DU intermittently timing out for anyone else?
Other sites are loading okay for me. I just want to make sure it's not some settings I have that's mucking with DU.

2. In all seriousness..
I think there's a nasty, largescale DOS on a good chunk of the Net going on right now; it might be slowing a lot of sites down.

5. Good point. I forgot about that.
I have most scripts turned off and I was wondering if those were impacting my load times and time outs on DU.

Your idea makes more sense.

Thanks.

Oh, and that whole unrec thing, weird. Ask a question get unrecced. Who knew?

6. Okay. Not just my scripts then.
See the other answer I got. I'd forgotten about that. It might be effecting both of us.

8. I've been having trouble getting posts to open for quite a while.
I thought it was just my poor ancient computer being funky.

Haven't timed out, though, I've just had to hit refresh a bunch of times before a post will load all the way.

11. I got that a couple of times, too. It's starting to look DU specific.
Or a whole lot of us need computer tech support. :D

16. I swear Solly if you don't quit living in my head I'm gonna charge ya rent.
My first thought was that I'd overloaded my account with hidden threads. I just didn't want to post that. LOL

I'd so rather have a multi-select hide thread than an unrec. :rofl:
