We were posting updates on our Facebook page. It is all there.

 

OK thanks, good to know for next time (but hopefully there is no next time).

Thanks Tom and colleagues, very glad to see Avsim back.  No other site is quite the same.  With very few exceptions, the community here is the best informed and the most amenable company.

Thanks for getting back up so quick. Fortunately I was still able to access the library during that time. Regards.

Yes, good to have Avsim back up again. 

 

Trouble is -it's still as slow as a slug for me.and has been for months.  I have a fast enough PC hooked up to high-speed broadband. Every other site loads fast, but loading Avsim pages, its as if I'm running a slow Vista PC connected to dial-up.

@TooWings: Have you noticed just how MANY folks are connected here at the same time?

 

Darn few other flightsim websites have that many people online at the same time.

I visit plenty of other sites no problem that have  thousands or even millions more users than we do here at Avsim. 

If server capacity is struggling then an upgrade seems an obvious solution:  It is after all a commercial site, so it would pay not to have members and potential advertisers put off by permanently slow speeds and outages.

 

Just my tuppence worth (as an I.T. consultant who's worked for Asda/Wallmart).

Tapatalk is always fast. Might be something to try for those experiencing problems

 

Upgrading to new equipment is (understandably) far too expensive

Would this be the same Wallmart in South Park?

I don't watch kids cartoons so I wouldn't know about that.  But I'm sure you know which Walmart I'm talking about.  They took over Asda stores here in the UK in 1999, and I was involved in their I.T.operations for seven years, on a self-employed basis, until quite recently.
