    When the site is working "fine" I'll sometimes notice a strange but tolerable "lag", while typing a response. You have to type a few letters blind, then wait for them to take, then type a few more.

    Well it won't unlock the page until everything comes in.

    Anybody and everybody who is complaining about slow page loads.......anywhere......should get Ad Blocker Plus.
    Quick, easy and the difference likely will be AMAZING.

    Tidelands a moderator, but doesn't have a role in the hardware maintenance. I think the server(s) with @Danny ?

    Some (one :whistle:) of us were joking around about Tideland Prius and the recent issues. Other members did not catch on to the lame humor attempt.....

    I've been having some problems with the site starting this week. Also, when is the PriusChat iOS app coming out?

    Just checked: the initial post was June 03, 2016, so just past a somewhat dubious "anniversary". Marginally acting up again this morning, getting the pop-up red/black warning, occasional "unexpected error". Nothing new.

    Really bad database errors. It is a shame they bury any helpful suggestions. If they had competition, perhaps they would pay closer attention.

    Early Sunday morning on the west coast: seems like it might be crashing sometime soon: starting to hang up, pause when loading a page.

    Maybe start running book on this, when it's going to happen, for how long. Get something positive out of it, lol.

    Earlier today I had some random database error when clicking links within this website. The app on Android was also super slow. It's all fine now.

    Posted via the PriusChat mobile app.

    I wish that was true.
    Highly unlikely that "It is all fine now."
    This has been going on for more than a year and just seems to get worse as time goes by.
