Becoming a bit unreliable of late...

Tengocity · 08-16-2015, 09:26 AM

The forum that is... More times in the last month than I can recall in the last 2 years, on top of the debacle of an app update that made it impossible to post!

k44ENT · 08-16-2015, 09:31 AM

Agree, numerous times over the past month I've been unable to access from my iphone, now being one of them.

Is it hosted in Greece? Nicks fault yes or no

DougMcL · 08-16-2015, 10:20 AM

It's certainly the most unreliable forum I've ever been on in terms of speed of loading a page or indeed being able to log in at all....

Yes, its hosted in a small room at the back of F30AMs place.

We got the wires all crossed after a heavy night of Ouzo and dancing girls.

Sorry. It won't happen again.

At least until tomorrow night....

robwils · 08-16-2015, 02:22 PM

Yes first time I've managed to get on all day.
Good and bad in it that.

Andrewthefirst · 08-16-2015, 02:24 PM

Agree. It's pish. At least once a week it is inaccessible for a long period.

Tried this morning and it was down, rest of the day has been spent prepping the Mondeo for handover to Peugeot dealer next month.

It has been like a whores drawers lately.

Agreed. Cleaned the car and caught up in about 4 car mags that I had around. Have to get my car fix somewhere!

Kal101 · 08-16-2015, 02:55 PM

As above.

DarrenL_007 · 08-16-2015, 03:02 PM

Yep, with all the spare time I had today I used a couple of microfibers to clean my engine bay.

Ditto!

As the owner of a motoring based website that went down for four days last weekend due to a DOS attack on my host servers, I can tell you that it's one of the most frustrating experiences. A right royal pain in the arse.

What website is that?

Watsey · 08-16-2015, 04:07 PM

Unreliable and getting worse.

I appreciate that it's free and the downtime may be due to malicious acts rather than capacity, but it's a well informed community and a shame when it's offline.

I created an offshoot of BMWLand after it closed down called BMWLänder.co.uk. Early days, old members are coming back which is nice.

Beancounter_74 · 08-16-2015, 05:54 PM

The app still has bugs too, like not being able to appreciate posts without it crashing

It's a shame as I prefer the app for ease over loading via browser in the phone.

Hopefully they'll get it sorted, but guess they have bigger issues with the site.

Nick the Greek · 08-17-2015, 04:51 AM

The accountants have got hold of it...
