HELP WANTED FROM MEMBERS - with forum speed problem

[springwater]

Sorry for the delay Steven, I was called for dinner. Yeah I think your right, the upload did seem to take longer than usual and I suspect it was more like a time-out that caused the "Token Error', even though, I did forget to reduce the size of the pics. Once the pics were reduced in size they uploaded quite quickly but I didn't record the time taken.

- location you're uploading pics?
This may be a dumb answer but I'm in Somers, Victoria

- Connection speed (ISP plan)
@ 9.42pm, 15_1_2011: Download = 2816 Kbps, Upload 390 Kbps
My provider is Peopletelecom.com.au, I use a Belkin ADSL 2 modem.

- Time of day the error appeared
About 10.00pm

- OS
MS Windows XP, Ver # 2002, Service Pack 3

- Browser
IE Ver # 8.0.6001.18707IC

The pics were uploaded by using the attachments button in the advanced reply window, they were:

DSC02423: 2,002 KB, 3264 x 2448 px reduced to 160 Kb, 800 x 600 px (using MS Picture Manager)

DSC02419: 2,872 KB, 3264 x 2448 px reduced to 231 Kb, 511 x 800 px (using MS Picture Manager)

DSC02406: 2,375 KB, 3264 x 2448 px reduced to 194 Kb, 800 x 600 px (using MS Picture Manager)

DSC02400: 2,947 KB, 2448 x 3264 px reduced to 316 Kb, 600 x 800 px (using MS Picture Manager)

I don't think they're directly related, tho an upload that takes to long time (even tho its under the limit) could cause a token error.

I don't think the pics were the culprit but I can email them to you if you think necessary. Hope this helps


Can you send me a copy of the file your having trouble with? [email protected]

It would also be helpful if you could include some general info like;'

- location you're uploading pics?
- Connection speed (ISP plan)
- Time of day the error appeared
- OS
- Browser

... and anything else you think could be helpful.

thanks

From choosing "Submit Reply" to the post actually appearing was over 1 minute, closer to 1:30sec . No error occured but it did take a long time. There were five pictures and they uploaded quickly.

...Hoppers in Melbourne....

Just a guess.

Up and down when I have been on during the day sorry didn't keep times etc even Pm's were slow to load etc. Then as in this thread and others our Names are in RED

Subscribed threads still coming in at 6/6.30pm I have been into the User area and can't locate anything to alter that.

10:00 PM -ish I noticed that the usernames are now in various very bright colours (which I personally don't like), so I tried all the skins, searched for an announcement of a change, bore in mind the recent problems and request for reports so tacked onto this thread.

Cheers,
Andrew

I've noticed this too- Not a big deal as far as I'm concerned, but probably worth mentioning...

Also I just noticed this

Your PM box is 100% full.


AfAIK It wasn't 'full' last time I looked and I haven't received a PM in ages... (So cold and lonely on my end ) Something might have changed recently that i didn't notice though- Or maybe it was always like that- Where am I and what day is it?

[Eldanos of KDM]

Maybe the amount of saved messages dropped and I didn't noticed- Anyway problem solved, my bad....

Eldanos, that album was deleted as Spam hence the message. It no longer exists.

Hi
Most pages load normally for me.
I have found that only when i do a "search" it takes a longer time.
About 10 to 20 seconds.
