    There's been quite a lot of downtime in the last couple of weeks - it's starting to get annoying now.

    It just died on me for about 20 mins, and came up with a lot of error messages rather than the usual stuff.

    EDIT: Just realised I spelt TSR wrong :facepalm::o:

    Sorry for the down time this morning from approximately 8:45am to 9:15am. We seem to be fixed and back up and running now. I'm not sure what the problem was yet, but am waiting for feedback about it.

    I'll enquire about the slowness and short periods of down time last night too. Though we were moving a copy of our development site on to the main servers last night in preparation for the go live of the release in a few weeks timee, so I feel that is probably the likely cause of the issues last night.

    Re: The site being slow?
    Im not sure, lately on TSR i get horrid lag and slow refresh rates.
    Also your get method (get/ showthread or whatever) failed/crashed, resulting in a screen saying proxy error or something of the like (cant remember now, but it was early hours of the morning).

    Proxy Error

    The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server.
    The proxy server could not handle the request GET /index.php.

    Reason: Error reading from remote server
