Happened several times today already: I’ll click on a thread title, and it directs me to the page where only the banner and menu at the top load (i.e., “User CP,” “FAQ,” “Calendar” and so on; everything below it is blank. I press F5 a couple of times and nothing happens (although at the bottom I notice a gaggle of “doubleclick” and “googleleads” addresses flash by quickly each time :dubious:) Anybody else having the same problem? ---

I’ve been having this problem today. Seems like if I wait a minute or two they open, though. ---

We’ll keep an eye on it. I’m making a few changes that may or may not be responsible. Let me know if it persists in the next few days. Thing is, we’ve been having slow load times all week, so it’s very difficult to determine what’s causing any specific slowdown. - **xash** Administrator
