Odd BG Loading Issues

[Akiyama]

So as the title says, I'm having problems with BG for some reason.

I tried to go about fixing the issue myself and checking things out (Clearing cookies/cache, scanning for spyware, etc), but so far, no luck. Basically what will happen is sometimes I can load BG just fine and refresh it okay, while other times if I click on refresh, it could take a full minute+ to refresh or not even refresh at all. Same thing applies when going to another section of the board.

www.bluegartr.com works fine, but when going to the actual forum, that's when it bones up. Sometimes if I click my bookmark to take my to General Discussion it works, while other times it won't and as I mentioned, 'Refresh' just bones up on me and it's annoying as fuck. This has gone on for the last few days or so. I don't remember doing anything differently that could have caused this either.

So.. advice? Comments? They'd be much appreciated.

Exact same thing happens to me when navigating to the forums too. I was just chalking it up to something server-side or something.

Edit: Which none of this has happened before until a few days ago.

Oh wow, really? You too? Yeah, see... before a few days ago, I could refresh with no issues and load everything perfectly fine, but then it started. I asked a few people who frequent the boards as well, but they don't have the issue, so I figured it was me. Then I figured if it *was* me.. wouldn't I have problems on other sites too?

Either way.. I'm glad it isn't only just me then.

I've been getting the same recently, particularly bad today, and while I can't say what this implies, it's totally fine on my desktop, yet completely slow-poking on my laptop. Both Firefox 3.6.

How often does this happen to you? I think it's happened to me like once in a blue moon, but not often enough to be annoying. And I visit BG on both my laptop and my iphone, using comcast/Firefox.

Is this a common occurrence for you guys?

Just here recently (maybe a week). And by the time I get through browsing all the topics I plan on, it will occur about 2-3 times.

For me it's common recently, I think as early as early last week, but it hasn't been as noticeably bad until today for me. Before then I hadn't really given it much thought as I thought it was just the slower, older laptop hanging and being old.

Pretty much this. Upgraded to FF3.6 but that isn't the issue(same problem in chrome).

Would help if some of you could report when this actually happen and for how long. I see no usage spike on the servers except for the daily backup maintenance at 6:30am eastern.

[Devolver]

I notice it more around the times of, I would say, 1-4 PM EST.

[Baelorn]

Just happened. Seems to hang when connecting to images.bluegartr.com.

So is it only the images that won't load or the whole forum?
