Rye Miles #13621 Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 Anyone else experiencing problems getting on to the SASS Wire? It sometimes won't even load. ALL other websites I visit are fine except for this one. I can get to the main Home Page of SASS but not the wire. Happened last night and a couple of nights before. I have a new IMac and I have NO PROBLEMS with any other websites just this one! Rye Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silver Shadow Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 I suspect that the software and hardware used to host this site are probably being over taxed by the influx of users visiting the site to share in the fight for our rights. Kinda like the the shelves at your local firearms store. Even before this, there were high traffic periods when things bogged. May be time for us to pony up for some upgrades.

Michigan Slim Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 If my son is on wireless or Xbox, and/or my daughter is watching tv, forget it. If I am alone using the internet only, it loads better. Too much traffic on my network connection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keystone, SASS # 47578 Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 Well, Trouble getting on the forums page. The back button at top of computer screen & alt + left arrow are difficult to get to function. This is the only website not allowing the back functions to work properly. Hasta Luego, Keystone P.S. I'm not very computer smart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Harris #154 Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 The folks at SASS HQ are aware of the problem. IT is taken care of by an off-site company. BH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zekest Crowe Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Think SASS might be using old Telegraph lines to their remote outpost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rye Miles #13621 Posted January 25, 2013 Author Share Posted January 25, 2013 On my new IMac this is the only website that won't recognize the emoticons, thanks to a pard on the wire here I can type in after clicking "show all" on the emoticons. ALL OTHER WEBSITES I visit I have no problem with the emoticons including my email. Oh well.............. Rye Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mad Dog Jack, SASS #77862 Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Didn't we go through this a couple of years ago? Didn't they (the infamous "they") update the underlying software for the forums to fix the problem? It's been going on for awhile now, and reflected in gaps of up to 2 hrs in post times on the Wire. Sounds to me like it's update time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
