No, not the content - or even the posters  - but the 'service'? I have a c. 35Mb+ BT fibre optic connection yet almost every time I use PH there'll be lengthy hang ups loading pages or submitting posts, quite often failing altogether and needing a close of the page/site and a reload - that in itself often doesn't work. Is it just me - never happens on other sites - or is PH too popular and busy for the server capacity, bandwidth or whatever? It really is like going back to dial-up some days. EDIT - to add, in the ultimate irony this is what I got when submitting this very post!

It is definitely (intermittently) not right.
I have no issues with any other sites, yet PH is running slow from any number of different locations with different types of internet connection/browser/OS/Apple/PC etc.

So, not just me then. Seems Haymarket need a better server, or something...

As I stated on that thread, I don't have Sky and the issues were therefore more widespread than for just those users.

Has refused to connect/crashed on 4 out of 5 attempts tonight, since c. 5.30pm. No Sky internet here either so must be another problem (server capacity?)
