Title: Forum trouble?
Post by: Diamond on March 18, 2012, 09:20 pm
Has anyone else been experiencing trouble with the forums? For about a week now I've regularly been getting "website not responding" messages from this site. But haven't seen an announcement about it or anyone else talking about it. Normally I would assume that it's just me, however:
 - all other regularly "up" onion sites are up for me (including SR proper)
 - this has been across 3 machines (three OSs)
 - this is from several independent internet connections

Just concerned about a site like this when apparent downtime isn't mentioned. Just normal levels of paranoia here.

I guess that makes sense. I'm usually fine right when I start Tor Browser up, then it get's worse as my session goes on.

But why would it only happen to this site and not others I frequent?

thats a good question. i am not sure why its only this site. it could be the high traffic or it could be because of something in the site which is beyond me.
