Has anyone noticed that it's taking way longer than normal to navigate the forums on the Fender site? At first I thought it might be my computer or my connection but ruled both out by surfing other sites and also from my laptop.

Pages are loading normally on the rest of the Fender site (i.e. Guitars, Basses, Amps, etc.) so the slow down appears to be limited to the Fender forums. Anyone else have the same experience?

Cheers!
BM

Yes, it's closer to normal time now, but earlier this morning I gave up on the site.

EDIT: I take it back, it's still screwing up, especially with posting.

Same here, but it seems I have become Fender Forum dependent. :oops:

It's not the first time I've noticed it. I suspect some kind of periodic maintenance gets done from time to time that eats up a lot of the server's computing power. Usually if I just leave it alone for a half hour I'll come back and find it back up to speed.

I thought it was my imagination. Apparently it wasn't.

I thought it was due to all of the hits on the bodies and neck swaps pages above.

This does happen every now and then but nothing like friendface or twitless. I was trying to leave a comment on a Brad post about the new Fender necks and bodies and was blown off facebook completely before I could finish the comment. Facebook is now a professional trollfest, crazy women searching for hook-ups, crazier men searching for the same exact thing, phony baloney businesses, foreign money schemes, spys spying on spys that spy on everyone. It was sorta cool up until 2009 and then it became a liability to all of us with accounts. Live and learn, I check every 2-3 days and then log-off.Too much unfriendly activity on freindface and twitless.
