I now it is only this site with the slow problem, as none of the other large sites are taking so long to react.Truth always poses doubts & questions. Only lies are 100% believable, because they don't need to justify reality. - Carlos Ruiz Zafon, The Labyrinth of the Spirits0

My first thought when it first happened (around 10PM last night) was it was a DDOS attack. There was a huge number of spammers posting at the time.0

Yes, very slow. I did get an error message, I think it was number 5020

Extremely slow here, couldn't even get on the site an hour ago.
No other sites affected.0
