Thursday 8/28/08 12:00 noon CDT it went off for at least 10 minutes. I don't know when it came back on.

I don't understand our system clock. I posted an article in that time frame edt, but my post says 3:35. I was on the highway at that time and NOT posting. I posted after I got home. ... JDH

System clock should be based upon your time zone setting in your profile.

#37 Post by **jdhurst** » Thu Aug 28, 2008 8:58 pm

It clearly is not. I was not home at 8:09. Something is screwy, because the FIRST thing I do upon starting any new PC is set the clock because new PC's are always set to a different time zone than I am in. ... JDH

Could this be because of DST? According to this time and date page, GMT/UTC does not observe DST (although the UK does, calling it British summer time or BST), so in the summer, London time is GMT+1. Thus, here in the eastern zone our offset in summer should be GMT-4, not -5 as it says in my profile (as referred to by Ray). Alternatively, it is London time-5 year round. Confused yet? Class dismissed.

edit: I just changed the time zone in my profile to GMT-4 after posting and now all the times in everyone's posts seem correct. It's one more "clock" I'll have to remember to change when DST ends.

I have been noticing random problems all week this week, too, and was going to post something about it when I saw this thread.

Today has been particularly bad. It almost seems like it is going down on the half-hour mark for about 10 minutes at a time. At least that was what I thought until it came back for 2 minutes at around 10:40 and then promptly went back down for me again. But the general pattern for me today has been down for 10, up for about 20, dying at 8:30, 9:00, 9:30, 10:00, 10:30, 11:00, etc.

Hope you guys can get it figured out soon!

The number of times that I'm not able to get on TPF seems to be on the increase!

Note: Whenever I can't get on TPF due to server-problems, I will have to log in with my username and password, because the cookie from before is no longer valid.
This is most irritating!

Note2: While trying to submit this post, the server went out again!

What a CRAP server company! (sorry, Bill).

Too numerous to report. Really, it seems like every day.

Puppy · #45 Post by **Puppy** » Mon Sep 15, 2008 8:18 am

Yes, it happens too many times during last few days.

pianowizard · #46 Post by **pianowizard** » Mon Sep 15, 2008 3:45 pm

It happened again just now on my computer, BUT, somehow I could get in on my Palm Centro smartphone.

It's getting worse and worser

This site goes down more often than Paris Hilton.

I wasn't able to access the site for theENTIRE day that the x200t was being peacocked around.

The debug errors are almost constant for me. Is there an issue with the hosting company?

#53 Post by **Harryc** » Wed Oct 01, 2008 7:45 am

I received a few of these errors today as well. It normally results in duplicate posts if you happen to be in the middle of submitting one. I don't know the answer to the hosting question. Bill Morrow would have to look into it.

#54 Post by **RealBlackStuff** » Wed Oct 01, 2008 4:19 pm

This afternoon the server has been crapping out even more than usual!

Really time to change hosting company IMHO.
