It almost seems to be a certain point in the morning (well, morning for me) that it occurs, and then goes away within five minutes.

I remember getting an e-mail from somebody I was moderating a game for who got worried because he wasn't able to follow the normal link and find out what I said in the thread.

Half hour later, it worked.

What I am curious about, though, is what actually causes it. Is there just a certain time of day (morning for this American) that everybody just decides to check their 'poly messages?

It seems to happen around 14:00 GMT, methinks... It's quite regular.
The strange thing is it will happen even if there are only 300 users... but sometimes It won't hapen if there are 400... which is strange?

I don't see how the load can differ at different times unless there's something such as at different times more opsters view in multiple windows.

Its been affecting me on and off all day, and its getting quite annoying to be honest.

Ho hum. The price of visiting the best site on the net.

I'm glad the site gives errors every so often. Means I actually do some studying while waiting for it to come back up..

However, if your entire life now revolves around 'Poly, then it going down effectively (although temporarily) kills you.

Poly is not my life, it is that which keeps me from my life.

That'll be 09:00 East-Coast-USA time, then.

It's been behaving like sh*t for me all night, what is up at the moment? Has Greece's single 14.4k connection to the outside world gone tits up?

Isn't the server in Texas though?
Besides, Greece upgraded to a 28.8k connection a few months ago.
