Welcome to the HeavyMetalPro Forums

Hi, didn't quite know where to put this.


I'm on the east coast of Australia and I've noticed that a few times when 'multi-tasking' on the computer at work - the forums (and I think the website) have gone down for a short time more than once in the last month, and I suspect about the same time each day (about 1.45pm here, which I think is about 11.45pm east coast USA?).

Usually I go do something else for 30 minutes or so, check back and it's all ok but today I got to sit and refresh and they came back right on 2.00 pm (here time ).

I used http://just-ping.com and it came back with large packet loss numbers so it's probably not a problem with this computer .

I don't get on the site/forums every day, and not always around that time so I can't be 100% sure if it is happening on a regular basis.

Is this something to do with the servers for the site?

Has anyone else run into this 'site/forums not there for 15 minutes or so' problem?

I did today. I logged in, the site hung, and it just never answered again after that.

All right, happened to me too couple days ago. I didn't pay attention to time, but anyways it was annoying when forum got loaded, then browser (IE & Firefox) couldn't find it, and next day (yesterday) everything up till previous evening (GMT +2 time) were marked readed.
