Site slow?

momoese · 06-02-2008, 02:13 PM

Is anyone else having intermittent problems with the site being really slow to load or sometimes completely inaccessible? It has been this way for a couple days for me but all the other sites I visit are still fine so it's not my connection.

Taylor · 06-02-2008, 02:14 PM

I am having the same problem. Most of the time when this happens, Jarred is working on his server.

It is completely inaccessible to me, but I am on a weird site that is allowing me on.

stumpy4700 · 06-02-2008, 04:05 PM

It froze up about 2.5 hours ago and I just now got back on. Whewwww I thought it was just my computer. I was just about to head to Best Buy for another. I'm glad to be back on..Yes mines been that was for 2 or 3 days now.

mskitty38583 · 06-02-2008, 06:45 PM

that happened to me on here this morning. i tried to log on and it kept saying server not found. then about 2 hrs later it let me on. so i figured that jarred was working on the site.

I was wondering if the site was being worked on also as I've been having the same problems.

lorax · 06-02-2008, 10:19 PM

Same here. I'd assumed it was the internets, which get kind of cloggy down here, but it makes better sense if Jarred was updating.

Dean W. · 06-02-2008, 10:20 PM

I've had the same problems from time to time. I wasn't sure what it was.

island cassie · 06-03-2008, 07:27 AM

Haha!! Our internet has been so bad down here recently that I didn't notice this site in particular - business as usual in our banana republic! lol

saltydad · 06-03-2008, 10:43 AM

I have had the same problem, and of not being able to post replies.

Edit- seems fine now.

MediaHound · 06-03-2008, 11:14 AM

Sorry guys, the datacenter has had some problems.
I'm seeing what can be done to make it better and avoid this in the future.
I hate it when that happens!

Bananaman88 · 06-03-2008, 11:40 AM

Thanks for working on the problem, Jarred. Just another of the behind the scenes things you do for us that we never really think about. Again, we appreciate all that you do for us here. JARRED FOR PRESIDENT!!!

lorax · 06-03-2008, 12:34 PM

He's already Presidente For Life here on the org! (IMHO)

mskitty38583 · 06-03-2008, 12:52 PM

jarred we appriciate all the things you do here for us. we understand the internet is pain in the hell-o sometimes.

MediaHound · 06-03-2008, 07:01 PM

Thanks alot everyone! I really appreciate the kind words. It means a lot to me.
I have other servers that had even worse trouble this week than the server Bananas.org is on! The datacenter (EV1, in Houston) had an explosion and 6,000 servers were affected - some were offline for days!
If that ever happens to this site, don't worry, it will be back! lol
Hope everyone is enjoying their growing season! Make the most of it!

mskitty38583 · 06-04-2008, 11:57 PM

i know that for the last 3-4 days ive had the hardest time trying to get nana.org to load. all my other e-mails load fine, just wondering if someone is trying to jack the site.... get 'em jarred. lol!

natedogg1026 · 06-08-2008, 08:42 PM

Good deal Jarred. I was wondering if it was just my computer.

harveyc · 07-02-2008, 11:41 AM

The site has been very slow or difficult to load for me again over the past couple of days. How about for others?

Taylor · 07-02-2008, 11:42 AM

Same...Jarred knows, though.

mskitty38583 · 07-02-2008, 03:05 PM

yep...
