Yeah, it will be like a rocket and I will love it!
but then it will be like old people trying to race one another and forgetting what they were doing and falling asleep. Sometimes when I type theotaku.com it wont even come it I will say that it doesn't exist.
You know that someone truly cares when they brick you like that. -AZ
Yeah, I've noticed. It's been kind of sad since the bad times have been when I can be online, making it hard to do stuff. But at the same time, if there isn't much you can do, then there just isn't. I do hope it gets sorted out soon.
I'm sure it's a lot harder for you than it is for us. We'll hang in there, so no worries. ^_^

Yesterday was just horrid, I finally gave up and quit trying to do anything. However, there was also a time when google and youtube were down too, so the Internet issue wasn't just theO and OtakuBoards.
So far today, everything seems to be working fine. Hopefully it will stay that way. It's a shame that there's nothing you can do about it though, so hopefully the issue will be resolved.
Unfortunately it's been slow for me for the last couple of days; not just here but on MyOtaku and OtakuBoards, too. Not slow enough to keep me from browsing, but I could make a lot of cups of tea whilst waiting between pages :p
Thanks for keeping us updated, though. I know I appreciate knowing how much care you give the site. I'm sure everyone else does too.
I have experianced some slowness of speed recently, but I think it's faster now, but then sometimes it'll slow down again. It's agiatating sometimes, especially when submitting stuff, it takes forver. But currently, the speed is fine.
Hey, there, bossman. Site's running smoothly. Excellent server speed. You're doing a tops job as usual. There's one little hiccup I noticed, though. That banner for the One Piece movie is overlapping the scrolldown menus. Just thought you should know. OP happens to be my favorite anime at the moment, but I can't click on anything else when Luffy's there.
Hm, that explains the difficulties I was having earlier. Can't fault the host for something out of their hands. If it's not one thing, it's another. Wish I could offer you a solution, but short of establishing your own everything to run the site (ISP, host and so on), you kind have to roll with what you get out there. At least it does go away and things run okay for a while. That's good enough for me right now.
Just about all you can do is ride it out. If it persists, then you need to take action, but that's a long way off yet.
I signed in some hours ago, and the speed was pretty slow -- like, timed-out slow. Though, right now the speed is fine. It has its lethargic days; it has its 6pack of energydrink days.

It was noticeabley slower today, but just today so far. I think with the situation explained, most people will be mature and accept it with as much good grace as possible. If there's nothing you can do, then there's no reason for us to useless whine about it.
Yes, it's a bit aggrivating, but compared to the altenative, it's a mere inconvenience.

It's been pretty slow for me every time I've visited yesterday and so far today. There's been quite a few connection time outs as well.

Yeah, on the whole it's nice and zippy, just occasionally it'll be slow enough to be unusable. I figured it's hosting related, not site related.
Thanks,

See, this is why we need a dinosaur. If we had a dinosaur, nobody'd let their servers get all stupid and slow on us . . .
