It is odd the way some people struggle to get on and others have no problems. I have never been timed out and over several years have only had the error message a couple of times, but I don't have large numbers of posts. |

What I find very strange is that, as so often in the past ........ this is a "local issue" |

I have this feeling that GR doesn't have any permanent staff, just FMP staff who are assigned 1 or 2 days a week or maybe "when you have time" |

Strange, I had an e mail from Liam with what I thought was a helpful suggestion, and after I had replied had a reply from Karen and somebody else I didn't recognise, back to the old steryotyped replied of clear cache etc. Maybe the techies only work one morning a week or something. |

I've never been timed out but it is normally quite slow to load. Using Edge with whatever is the latest version (updated recently). Our broadband normally very reliable and this is the only site I've had problems with :-( |

Well that was different. Instead of the error message I got 'Gateway timed out' and a blank screen. So couldn't try and get on via the logo and homepage. :-D |

Attempting to access the site from the home page today, I persevered every now and then during the day and, eventually accessed it late afternoon after seeing the error message five times. |

Ken, you could be right re numbers of threads and posts but suggest GR delete any and some members will be up in arms. |

I have managed to get the error message for the first time for months. That was by looking at one of the big threads and trying to select a page range of about 2501-2510. The same thing happened with the other thread but did not happen when I selected a page range for the Corrie thread. |

OK. Following Kens suggestion, after deleting my recent link I tried the homepage route. Great! I was in without a problem -until the next time. Error! |

I suspect it would not make much difference. |

AnninGlos | Report | 31 May 2018 16:22 |
I wonder if it would improve things if they deleted any threads before a certain year, I don't know haow much old threads add to the amount of data held, or do they not matter because they are inactive? |

No I am not standing up for Genes, they are not doing enough to keep the system going properly, but then I doubt that they are taking enough from subscriptions to employ more than a skeleton staff. |
