Jim Bowen 1 Posted February 23, 2011 just got rid of google chrome as that made no difference. have been using the above link all morning and so far everything is working well Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andi 2,147,483,647 Posted February 23, 2011 I'm glad the 'direct' link is working for you. That will stay up and running, so just make sure when you're at home you use that. It seems to affect a small minority of you, whereas the system that is being 'avoided' by using that link actually assists a LOT more (in caching the site, making it a lot faster, reducing load on the server, etc etc). If you think I'm just 'saying that' - have a look at the stats for the past 2 weeks... This site gets a LOT of traffic, and I really need all the help I can get to ensure it stays up and running for you all, and CloudFlare really does help: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Bowen 1 Posted February 24, 2011 i don't understand a lot of it and your graphs above, but all i know is the forum seems to work for me now, using this new link.... thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alex_G60_Fanatic 0 Posted February 24, 2011 I'm surprised you come up on Yahoo more than Bing BTW... thought the search engine market was more like: google - 70% Bing - 25 - 27% and the rest on yahoo and jeeves and all them lot. Or at least thats what my IT man tells me.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supercharged 2 Posted February 24, 2011 (edited) The graph shows the amount of pages the webbots have crawled... Who uses Bing - it's sheeeiiittee! Edited February 24, 2011 by Supercharged Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Topaz2008 0 Posted June 20, 2011 Is there a problem with the forum? The homepage and page display time is so slow, that I can't really use it. Other sites are fine and I have tried another PC. Any ideas? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Bowen 1 Posted June 21, 2011 i still have the issue occasionally, but always use the direct.thecorrado.net link i was given. except photos don't seem to show up and peoples links are normally not the direct.the.corrado thingymebob link Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
