Rye Miles #13621 Posted January 23, 2013 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
Boon Doggle Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 It's just about as slow as I am. And buddy, that's slow.
Marshal Chance Morgun Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 Yep, happens to me quite often.
Hoss Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 Happens to me, when using my ipad or iphone. Never seem to have a problem when usint my computer. May jsut be a coincidence? I dont know enough about computers to really know if the Apple vs Windows thing has anything to do with it.
Grizzly Adams 3674 Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 The Wire has bee VERY slow for the last three days or so. It's this site, not your computer.....
Lead Ringer Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 Happens to me, when using my ipad or iphone. Never seem to have a problem when usint my computer. May jsut be a coincidence? I dont know enough about computers to really know if the Apple vs Windows thing has anything to do with it. Yep.....happens very often with my Gallaxy III smart phone. Other things load right up?

Silver Shadow Posted January 23, 2013 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. SS
The Original Lumpy Gritz Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 YES, very S L O....... Of the forums I visit, this one is by far the worst for the OP's stated issues. LG
Four-Eyed Buck,SASS #14795 Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 I've been having problems at times as well
Michigan Slim Posted January 23, 2013 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.
Prescott Palmer Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 As stated, problems when using my IPAD but not when using my work computer.
Rye Miles #13621 Posted January 23, 2013 Author Posted January 23, 2013 Hey BH.....did ya read these replies??? Can something be done?? I'm willing to up the SASS dues $5.00 to maintain this site better!!! Rye
Eusta B.Fast Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 happened to me yesterday p.m. I couldn't get on the wire at all it can really get yer dander up when ya got someone tryin to make a deal
Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 I don't know how long it's been taking to load. I keep falling asleep.
Keystone, SASS # 47578 Posted January 23, 2013 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.
Black Harris #154 Posted January 25, 2013 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
Zekest Crowe Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 Think SASS might be using old Telegraph lines to their remote outpost.
Rye Miles #13621 Posted January 25, 2013 Author 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
Dakota Doc Martin, SASS #21774 Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 Slower than mole-arses in January!
Snakebite Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 It's a "Sign of the Times"...pard. I downloaded Google Chrome, and it seems to be better... but still slow. Snakebite
Doc Flimshaw Sass# 73310 Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 The wire will only have problems on these days:..... Mon, Tue, Wed, Thur, Fri Sat, Sun.
Mad Dog Jack, SASS #77862 Posted January 25, 2013 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...

Sounds to me like it's update time... The "They" are HQ staff and the IT folks. An upgrade is also being reviewed. There are a few more problems than just being slow. BH
Goody, SASS #26190 Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 Aww,come on BH. Just some folks way of saying thanks. (wink)
Black Harris #154 Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 Aww,come on BH. Just some folks way of saying thanks. (wink) Oh, I don't take offense to questions and problems - I have the same ones. In fact I have lost many of the tools I use to keep this place running smoothly. Just trying to explain what is happening or is about to happen. Enjoy BH
