Is anyone else experiencing really slow response times?

[Doom Metal Alchemist]

Since yesterday the site has been loading really slowly when I hit refresh on my browser. Usually clicking links doesn't have this effect. This is the only site this is happening on.

I'm using Chrome on a Mac.

My brain before coffee amirite

I've only been using the site on my phone lately, nothing unusual past 24hrs

[The_annoying_one]

I’ve noticed the site being completely unresponsive at times. I honestly thought it was just my phone giving me problems, but I’m pretty sure it’s only this site I’ve had issues with.

Bumping because been getting awful load times and timeout errors all day.

At first I thought it was just work wifi somehow trying to block access or something.

But no, even at home nothing wants to load at all.

Yeah, I couldn't even access the site on mobile earlier today, and now on my desktop I'm getting frequent Cloudflare timeout error pages.

Yeah I let KN know yesterday 

[André Toulon]

i guess it was spotty because I did not really notice until last night.

I was slow while i was waiting for my son to get outta school, but its always slow out in BFE, so I thought nothing of it

[discolé monade]

yes

[The_annoying_one]

Everything’s working absolutely fine for me today. I probably just seriously jinxed myself here, though.

Is it just me or is this place having loading issues again?

Definitely not just you. It’s been rough the past few days for me.

I'm starting to wonder if this a sign.

[Raptorpat]

I just got hit with slowdown, sending a note to KN

[-Kudasai-]

I've been experiencing loading issues again for a few days. 

[Raptorpat]

Yes both mobile and desktop. I sent KN a message earlier today.

Loading issues yet again 

[SwimOdin]

I'm having issues on mobile, where all the threads load the OP post when I click on a folder.  It's causing loading issues.  PC is fine and doesn't do this.

[The_annoying_one]

The only issue I’ve been having lately is certain posted images not loading properly, but that’s always been par for the course on mobile.

[rpgamer]

No problems previously, but today loading anything is ass on desktop.

Edit: seems to have resolved itself.

Yeah, the site’s barely loading anything at all today, with the occasional Cloudflare Error thrown in for good measure. Case in point, it took over an hour just for me to be able to make this short post.

On mobile, if that matters.

Does this site have cancer or something?

[Raptorpat]

I let KN know a few hours ago

[The_annoying_one]

Things seem to be back to normal…for now.

I’ve been trying for about 2 hours to get anything at all to load.

[katt_goddess]

Can confirm. I'm on a desktop so it's not a mobile thing.

[rpgamer]

Feels very intermittent. Like, first visits of the day can be really slow to get going, but then everything settles and just works like normal.

Not experienced any prolonged hour+ problems myself.
