Webpage Expired But Only On MyLot - Can Someone Help With This Problem?

Even posting this has taken a few attempts but I have been trying to respond to discussions and press submit and then it takes ages then expires so post is lost. I have been on other sites and they are working fine at normal speed. Does anyone know why this is? What do I need to do to rectifiy? Is anyone else experiencing this problem here at myLot? To all my friends I am trying to respond but can't so bear with me. Ellie :D

Mylot is relatively slow compared to other sites. It purely depends on your Internet speed. Try to use Mylot in off peak hours. Try to remove the temporary internet files and check once. cheers

Hi, It now looks like one of my other attempts at posting has also posted so I have now asked this question twice. LOL. Yes it can be slow at times but today it has literally lost all responses as I have pressed submit. Maybe my friends will also get numerous responses like with discussion placed twice, ooops. I did remove the temporary internet files and that didn't help. Haven't a clue when the peak times are really but thanks for the advice, apreciated. Ellie :D

I do not agree. If other sites were working fine and speedy then it has nothing to do with her internet speed at all.

Hi Littleowl, It does seem to have resolved now but was out for about three hours earlier. I hope Ravenlady gets hers back running correctly again soon. I think we must all experience different glitches at different times eh! When I posted this one the other one I had been trying to post and lost posted aswell so there are two discussions like this LOL and I am getting responses on both but by differnt people. Ellie :D

It's server overload issues. I enjoy using myLot, but it can take ages most of the time, as their current servers aren't enough to satisfy the load. I use FireFox on OSX, so when I get the error page to finally come up, it displays a "try again" button. If I press that, the page usually comes up instantly and I haven't lost anything.

Hi Yes they obviously need to sort the server for larger volumes of traffic. I don't even know what I use as I am not too up on the tech stuff but it seems to be up to speed today again for me anyway. Thanks for advice. Ellie :D

It could be Rosekitty as when I joined there were 119,00 and bow we have well over 130,000 so it could just be the volumes of traffic. Mine is fine today. I hope yours speeds up for you. Ellie :D

Every other site I have been on today has been working fine and myLot is for me now too but was doing this most of the morning. Some seem to be experiencing it now though so perhaps its a glitch in their system somewhere eh! I hope you are back up to speed again soon. Ellie :D

I think it's more likely that a lot of people are going on the site at the same time. If traffic on a site is heavy then it's possible that their server cannot handle it all. You may also want to clean out your cache because often that will help when a site you visit often is very slow. There have been many complaints about the speed here at Mylot recently and I wonder if the peeps who run this shebang realise how irritating it is for us?

It is working fine again now but was slow for hours earlier. I did do a temporary file clear up also but that made no difference. I am sure they mus realise and are probably trying to do something behind the scenes to rectify. Thanks for your advice. Ellie :D

i think i ever similiar problem with you dear friend. there is two possibilities why its happened. first of all, it caused of mylot glitch and better you contact mylot to fix up this matter cause i just remembered that on the first time mylot code implemented in here, i can't open mylot page at all using IE ver 6.0, then i just contacted mylot and after few times, i can access it agaian another possibility is because unstabile internet connection that you have. since mylot has more features in their pages, so it means its little bit heavy to open and download if compared with another webpages. cause i also have these problem too

Hi Plumwish07, It seems to have sortted itself out now but it is very frustrating when trying to use the time I have to catch up of responses to be wasted as they aren't posting. My internet is fine as I can access all other sites without a problem so a glitch in the myLot system I guess. Thanks for helpd and advice though, appreciated. Ellie :D

I think that I am going to have this problem this moprning with Mylot also. I have been working with them all night long without any problems, but now my pages are loading really slow. I think it is on Mylot server end and not a problem with us or our computer. I think it may be because Mylot is in their site also and getting ready to make changes or updates and that will make the site pages load slow too. It is not just you, my friend. I am having the same problem. It seems to be moving a little quicker again now though.

myLot has been slow all morning Ellie. I gave up and went recycling. Now that I am back it seems back to normal. Hope that it stays this way. Must be a problem with their server I think as everything else seems fine.
