Yes, I was just having trouble listening to music on YouTube. Stuff kept pausing halfway through a song. I finally gave up on that.

Just a little background, a Tier1 ISP Level3 (now CenturyLink) was having issues last night. That was most likely the reason for any internet slowness anyone experienced.

I have gotten to the point when this happens to just get up and stretch a bit, grab a cup of coffee, stuff my pipe with an English blend and sit on the back porch. Things are usually much better when I get back.

Rumor is that this solution works for almost all problems, not just slow internet 
Just for general education purposes: when Admin is working on site improvements or changes behind the scenes, it causes the site to slow down dramatically. That is usually the cause, though imonaboat's post could also be a solution (I don't have all the answers, just speaking from experience on what typically happens).

I'll never quit collecting entirely, but I am downsizing. Check out my COMC store and help me thin out what I don't want so I can buy cards that I do want. See something you like? Send me a message on here, and we can knock the price down quite a bit. I'll even take a bit of a loss if it means getting you a card you really want. |

There are none of life's problems that can't be solved by an appropriate charge of high explosive!

Whatever's going on right now, I'm seeing the slowness again

Looks like there's a network latency issue with the service provider. The hosting company is working on it. Apologies for the inconvenience.

In the country with poor internet service, so I have drank more coffee than is good for anyone's health. Thank the lord that I don't smoke or else the tobacco industry would be like card supplies.
The one good thing about my country internet service is that when you guys report "site slowness", I really don't see any difference.

I have to say that I do not miss the old 19.6 dialup I used to have.
