Thanks to the techs for trying to fix this problem. We don't mean to be impatient but we are... addicted to FT.

Hi FT,

I've been having constant problems over the past few days with the site being really slow. As a result I keep getting error messages saying there is a communication error and that there is a problem with the server.

All other sites are fine, and I'm only getting this problem with FT.

Do you have an update on when things will be back to normal?

Many thanks
Lyndsay

Interesting. I've had problems with the speed but the connection has been ok (bookmarked through flyertalk.com to the BA forum)

Continues to be a complete mess here.

And the time stamp on FT is about 30 minutes off

Surfing this site has been painfully slow for the past few days. I hope that whatever technical problems are the cause will be remedied soon.

Comforting to see I'm not the only one having problems. For a minute there I thought that maybe I broke the Internet

two issues. 1) the site is almost unbearable to use it's so slow and 2) i've used flyertalk for years both at home and at my work computer. flyertalk has always remembered my sign on. in the past two days, each time i log onto my computer and access flyertalk, i've had to re-enter my login and password. very weird.

Actually think all those mails have contributed to the problem.

As of 10:00am Pacific 11/17/05:
  • www.flyertalk.com remains unreachable (404)
  • web1.flyertalk.com remains unreachable (404)
  • web2.flyertalk.com is hit and miss in terms of reachability, extremely slow (minutes to load pages) when it is, and generally is omitting most graphics
  • http://64.78.185.85/ remains unreachable (404)
  • http://64.78.185.92/ is accessable, but will not remember my login credentials (it thanks me for logging in, then sends me back to the login page)
