Title: More "unable to connect"&"this connection has timed out" messages than usual...
Post by: Mitch Kumstien on September 03, 2013, 12:22 pm
I don't know if it is only me, or a few people, or many people who are finding it more difficult to connect to The Road. I've been receiving the "cannot establish a connection" message more frequently lately and I don't know if it is due to site traffic or to some sort of bug but I find myself having to request a new identity on the tor network or refreshing the connection a couple, or a few times, before connecting. The reason for this post, I'm hoping is for some technician to look into it and address or resolve this issue.

Keep The Road running smoothly please, people are depending on you.


Thanks

There has been a large increase in Tor traffic which is causing the current issues. It has been reported in more detail in another thread on the Forum.  :)
