Slow AB in the afternoon.

[albaqwerty]

Love it here in the morning, smootly flows, however when I come back in the afternoon it is sooo slow in loading, it seems to be forever waiting for gravatar.

More traffic at that time of day I presume?? Could you please ask gravatar to put an extra 50p in the meter??

That will be from 2pm onwards, when the Eastern Seaboard comes online.

And by 4pm, the whole of California is right here on AB.

You can understand why it gets snowed under.

Thanks JJ x

Really? Can't say I've noticed many Americans on here apart from Clanad.

I was being a weensy bit ironic, mike

Thought that might be the case. I'm a bit slow this morning.

[albaqwerty]

I blame the Canadians :-)

[Arksided]

I didn't know that Gravatar was based in the US, I thought the slow ones were based in Brighton ;-)

It maybe your connection speed Alba, most traffic in the UK slow down due to folk just basically yabbering.

[albaqwerty]

I like to yabber in the afternoons, oh and the mornings :-)

[Arksided]

keep yabbering, you're lovely x

Ab's 'Server' is also based in the States; along with Gravatar.

a lot of Colombians come on here in the afternoon (morning their time). Many of the strange posts that people think come from trolls are actually Colombian drug gangs conversing in code.

Now you're taking the proverbial, jno!

[vivandorron]

jno perhaps is being serious and we all need to choose our words very carefully; especially me....Please don't interpret what I said (AB' Server is in the States) as being AB's crack dealer is connected with drug suppliers in the States.....Although it does translate into such a statement.:-

The moon is low in the sky tonight. I think we may have snow.
