I actually have to say, it does seem to slow way down around 11 PM Eastern Standard Time. It is now 11:36 PM EST, and I started noticing clicking around various threads was slow about 30 minutes ago. I then clicked in this thread, saw the 11 PM EST theory above, and I am thinking there is definitely something to it.

I can confirm this also. It slows to a crawl nightly at 10:00 pm CST

Same for me, it's always slow right around the time I start winding down for the night, which would be right around 11. And it's still slow right now for me.

Edit: And now it's sped up lol.

Same here, once again at around 10:00pm CST.

It took 15 minutes to get into this thread and post this.

Yep, can also confirm it was impossible for about 15 or 20 mins there. Maybe this timeframe will help the devs figure it out...

4:20am I clicked on a forum link. No deal. I clicked on Forums to come post in this thread after sitting for a few minutes, it's now 4:36 and this page JUST loaded.

Not sure what's causing this but whatever it is brings the forums to a complete stop for several minutes. It's really obnoxious. Then of course all of a sudden the forums are running like a fresh install :huh:

Also side note, like clockwork last night at 11pm the forums were apparently choking on something. :D

Yeah tonight has been painful as regards forum use.

I've been on my phone using the mobile version and it times out fairly often.

This is via WiFi on a 40Mb connection so it shouldn't be the connection on this end.

I'm using a brand new amped wireless router on a subscribed 12mb connection (often is 15-22Mbps) and a brand new core i5-3570K system with 16GB RAM and Windows Server 2012 on an SSD drive and it's still slow sometimes...

I just got a ZTE N860 (warp) and it's slow on it on wifi and 3G.
