What do you mean? Do you mean your password isn't working or the page isn't loading?


I have noticed the slowness still.

I've noticed periods of slowness too the last few days, so slow sometimes that WP became unusable so I closed the browser and got on with other things.

yes, it is soooooooo slow right now. Firefox wont even load the site, I can only get IE to load it, and it takes forever!
Then again it says there are 712 people online!! ! Did WP outgrow the new server/setup ALREADY? It seems when there are 500 or less people online at once, the site runs great, but once you get close to 650-700, it seems it starts to have issues

It periodically becomes very slow for short lengths of time, but then is very fast again.

It was only been unstable since a member got deleted and since then, its been running very unstable that even Alex himself was not pleased that eventually that he had more issues to fix.... I will not go into much detail as it is against the rules to do so.

I don't even understand why that would make it unstable?

Its time people just got on with things, I doubt it has anything to do with an ex member, its just a a server error, funny thing is, it occurred at the same time one was happening on secondlife and both unrelated

Yes. I have had problems logging one again, with the request for waiting and alex's conference excerpt.
It's been like this for me occasionally over the past few days, if I recall correctly.

I don't know, I'm just guessing, but maybe Alex has been tinkering with the code, either fixing problems or making upgrades. I would assume the site would slow down when it's being worked on.

I was referring to the slowness.

It isn't going slow on me though.... I've been able to log in just fine and everything, the only problems i'm getting is the fact I get this message saying theres HIGH amount of people on WP and I get this YouTube clip....

Remember when we moved to the first server and everything was stable and alex did say it will run abit slow for a while due to seeding to the back-up server incase something has messed up... That could most likely be the case.

Maybe he could be restoring some settings or accounts that have been claimed to be missing?
