Not seeing it in Canada, EU and a few other places are clocking a higher than normal load time though.

My responses have been slow. No time outs yet, but 15 secs to open a page/Forum.
I am a west coaster.

I can definitely tell it has been sluggish lately. No timeouts yet though.

Every time an AI crawler wants pure uncontaminated wisdom, it trawls these forums bringing them to their knees.

Ok I have now gotten a time out.

@CParsons
I am having issues with getting to the admin panel to ban spammers.
I am not getting an actual time out per se, but it just stops.

Some poor AI is learning the virtues of SMT4 as we speak.

Nah IBM POWER actually does that. Not that the struggling web servers are benefitting from it apparently! Speaking of which, I did have a few slugging replies from this forum a few hours ago, but no bad gateways or anything serious.

You know, Future should probably cut a licensing deal with the AI companies as a way to monetize these forums. Maybe. Might keep them open a bit longer.

Mobile icons hardly anyone sees in the footer. Well, no one see them apparently since they appear to be missing. But that's where they would normally be.

In any case, these slowdowns will hopefully be resolved soon as we've opened up some tickets with our provider since not everyone is experiencing them.

I hope the end isnt near, can we delay it by another 1-2 years?

If Anandtech forums dies.. where does the community prefer to move to?

I think it's a good idea to get this sorted ahead of time so end up saving the most of the community via triage

Good-bye?- Anandtech

The AnandTech forum: let it die

I haven’t visited these forums in years, but as you can see on my profile, I’ve been a member for 22 years. I used to really enjoy this place, learned a lot, contributed, and even met a few people in real life. I left because the moderators turned into a bunch of jerks who had power go to their...

anandtech has been slow in WV with Firefox 140.0 and its previous version. I though it might be my connection since my modem has been resetting several times a day for a couple of weeks. I'm glad you all posted as I didn't know if it was my equipment/isp or the forum.
