Well, the signs are all here to see. Unable to post sometimes. Icons showing - not showing - showing again. Pages not fully loading. Or showing a blank white page. Getting stuck waiting for the advertisements. Long, long waits between new posts appearing. Yes, we've seen it before. Guess I'll be looking for something else to do soon!

Well, it's still looking a little unstable from time to time. But there is time yet if the mylot staff are aware of the problems. Nobody wants their weekend ruined.

Oh mylot is having flu symphton again? I dont open another site so i thought it was my internet connection because i moved to a new place. I was thinking to get another internet service provider, i forgot that the slow loading is probably because mylot have the error run time syndrome.

I think that error will come anytime soon! Slowed to a crawl, hasn't it?

I just got back from work, but I didn't have any problems this morning. Well if it goes down this weekend, that's fine with me. I have a grad party and a 4th of July party Saturday and I seriously need to work on my story before classes begin this fall. So if it's down, then I'll just be more active later..:D

I think we would all like to be out partying - no matter how good we claim mylot is! But I'm not in that kind of environment so the computer is my companion at the moment.

I have just come back after a little sleep so I hope it has cured itself in that time. Can't stay long though cause the family wants some breakfast!

I have noticed the same issues but I am so hoping it is not true! This is the worst time for it to happen. I am trying to make as much as possible before the end of the month so I really hope it will not happen! =( Plus, I won't know what to do with myself if mylot has another "glitch".

Ive noticed the slow times too. It would not surprise me if it does go down soon. I have been getting a little frustrated and have had to take many breaks from mylot recently. In all truth though, upgrades are always needed especially on a site as busy as mylot. I do hope that it will not be a log break though. I dont know what I will do with myself this weekend if it does go down for a long period of time.

Oh. thought it was fixed, but that last comment didn't go out so well. Decidedly sluggish!

This is the third attempt at posting this.... Could you get your crystal ball out again Peter and predict who is going to win tonight?

It's weird that some people notice the signs and others don't. Also, there doesn't seem to be any geographical link.

Hi Peter, as for me here, the loading of this site seems very slow and i need more extra time to post each reply. But, i am not in hurry, since i am still very far away from reaching the payout point. Hope Mylot admin and his team will be able to solve this problem soon. So, everyone of us will have fun posting in here. Now, i am thinking of using my time for doing some useful offline matters. Have a nice day...

My wife and I usually disagree strongly on what is "useful" activity!

That has been happening on and off for me for quite a while now, so I don't really pay that much attention to it, although I do have to admit that it is definitely frustrating. Some days I just don't have the patience for it, so I just close out of myLot and come back another day when hopefully the site is working better or at least I have more patience to deal with it. I doubt that the site being down for the weekend would have much of an impact on me as I have too much to do and should not be here anyway ... actually, the site being down would probably be a good thing for me as I would not be tempted to come here instead of doing chores. For the sake of everyone else, though, I do hope that the site is up and running smoothly from now on.

Hmmm ... if you are not being sarcastic about the speed at the moment, then perhaps they took and put your side of the pond on the high-powered server and put our side of the pond on the slow one, because it really is taking a while for everything to load for me. Then again, my computer is not the fastest thing in the world, but other sites seem to be working at normal speed for me except this one.

My God! It really has got fast now. Someone is doing their chores on mylot! Hope it stays this way. If it does, we will enjoy the site so much more.

Well something is sure going on. Incredibly fast loading and posting just now - I'm shocked! No kidding - I have never seen it this fast before.

Hmmmm...I haven't seeing any issues as of the moment. I just logged in after a couple of weeks hiatus. If ever myLot will be down this weekend, it would be disappointing in my part. I just got my free time coming on this weekend and I will find out that I won't be able to do myLot in those precious times. I just hope that your signs are incorrect.

Let us hope that Peter is not very good at predicting the future ... or perhaps he is hoping that this will be one of those "I spoke too soon and jinxed it" only in reverse.

It is so hard to predict anything. At the moment the site seems to be running as fast as I've ever seen it. So fast that I often get the top and bottom parts of the page, but no actual content (topics)! That's not good is it? I just hope the staff are looking into the problems. Never have been good at jinxing!

And so much for petersum's predictions. Mylot server issues did came through touching the weekend mark. Maybe you can give me some random digits to use in sweepstakes draw. Jinx!

yeah that happen to me too, but i wish my lot will not closed forever, you now i really need money on internet, if my lot down, what i must to do???

Mylot will never close forever! But closing for a few hours is annoying enough. We have come to rely on the Internet too much and our amount of patience has become less perhaps.

Oh no don't say that MyLot has been working well again for me and has been well behaved! Won't have as much to do if there is no MyLot to post comments on! If it goes down I'm sure I'll have something else to do but I hope it doesn't :)

I've got lots to do - just don't want to do it though.

Haha well I was out all day yesterday and when I got home MyLot was down so you were right but the reason for it was a huge storm! Was good of MyLot to share this with us so we knew the reason. Communication is key :D

Awww and I was just starting to enjoy posting on here and meeting people, that would be a bummer if that happens, I hope not though.

It happens quite often so we get used to it. It's just a problem finding something else to do when it happens.

As I see with people's comments, they seemed sad if this glitch will happen. Well, I am hoping not...though I am still very far away from the payout because of my leave of absence for months...^^ Wish everyone a happy payout! hopefully they will make it!

I have not noticed any change with mylot... Maybe it is your computer or internet connection? No problem with me: all pages are loading, no wait at all.

No, it isn't just me, but I'm glad you are not facing difficulties. It could have occured before you came online, as more recent posts seem to suggest no problem. Hope it stays this way! And welcome to mylot!
