pm | Site struggling ? * THIS IS NOT A FAKE MESSAGE (31st Oct 17 at 8:27am UTC)
Problems accessing our forum | | FORUM not loading
Browsers - IE and Firefox
We have a small but active forum which has been in existence for a number of years. In the last few weeks it have been getting more and more difficult to get into it. It either hangs or just refuses to load. Is there a problem with the vforums set-up now ? I am aware the support site does not seem very active nowadays either.
I do hope vforums days are not numbered as a provider. Please advise. Thank you.

It's a little better this morning and yesterday morning but later in the day was no go again. Heavier internet traffic generally once the US wakes up? Who knows ?
I hope we can get some answer to this. We really don't want to lose our forum  | |

This is a bona fide request for the support team please.
Bringing the thread back to the top........ | |

It's frustrating. | |
