i think thats very unfair of you to say that.as you know mse got spammed big time and since then yes its been slow and down at times,but as with all sites you have to give and take a little,things like this do and will happen so please bear with the tecs while they get it sorted,its the best site arround,if you cant put up with it then go else were,as all the other 1000s who use this site are very happy with it running even tho its slow at times,anyone else agree with me??????Replies to posts are always welcome, if they are done in the correct manner. If I have made a mistake in the post, I am human, tell me nicely and it will be corrected. If your reply cannot be nice, has an underlying issue, or you believe that you are God, please post in another forum. Thank you0

So where else are going to go?
If you have somewhere, go quickly.
And quietly.

First they were attacked with a DDOS which is impossible to have predicted and entire countries have gone down because of similar attacks. Since then they've been implementing solutions to prevent/limit any further attack, this in part has included physically moving to new servers. If anything they're putting huge expenditure into it. This is about protecting the site from further criminal attack. Hardly MSE's fault for coming under a malicious attack."She is quite the oddball. Did you notice how she didn't even get excited when she saw this original ZX-81?"

Don't be so ungrateful. Read this if you can be bothered http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?p=6798632#post6798632
Does this website cost you anything to use? No
Have you gained from it? Yes
Please be more grateful and thankful for the hardwork Martin and his team put into MSE0 -
How dare you complain about a free to use, extremely helpful web site that has helped people save thousands!
Unless you can do better (especially considering the recent attacks the site has had to cope with) then please shut up and go away!Out of my mind. Back in 5 minutes.0 -
Don't get me wrong.....i love the site....(maybe that's why i'am getting so p****d off!)
and i love Martin.. (not in that way...i hasten to add!!)
Yes...i know the site was attacked..
but even before this... the site was "struggling"
(it's not my connection)
If you are going to go on TV and radio and promote your site you should at least be prepared for the extra hits (and attention) that your site is going to get!
I remember Martin on the JV show a while ago.....
They were laughing and joking about how the site had crashed because of the large increase in the number of visitors!!!0 -

Why do you think they're moving to new servers? It's not a simple or easy exercise you know. That they've had so little interruption is actually quite amazing."She is quite the oddball. Did you notice how she didn't even get excited when she saw this original ZX-81?"
