Does anyone from the staff ever read these posts?

I am wondering that now, wish we could get some kind of feedback :(

Just had to wait over a minute for a thread to refresh and had to then wait another 30 seconds to get the thread to refresh with the add post box so I could post in a thread....

I take it it's a hosting issue and not a routing issue?

I suspect it may have something to do with the banner at the top of the page, which has not shown anything for quite some time. At least on my PC.

I turned off my web ads blocker for the Maxthon browser I use and the ad shows up now in the banner but it still not opening the page correctly so that wasn't it. I also noticed if I move my cursor over the topics at the top of the page (control panel - main - forums - blogs - etc) they all drop down and stay there. Now thats weird and possibly indicates a proplem with the main page display.

Maybe the site was attacked and they though they had it fixed but there is still corruption in the code.

I thought everything was fixed but as I tried to type this post the browser froze several times and then when I went to post what I had written my post dissapeared. Then I had to deal with a frozen browser even to close pages and log out. This time I'm on Opera and things seem better, So its an Explorer thing. Never the less its very irritating and soon after signing on I want to sign off in frustration. Unless they fix it they are definately going to lose new subscribers if not chase away present ones who use Explorer or Explorer based browsers..

Don't you just love how the moderators jump in here and say "we are aware of the problem and are working on it!".

It would appear that they don't care?

I hope they do care I really do, because in its current state Neowin is almost unusable for me. It would be nice to have input from an admin / coder regarding the Forum :/

I do as well but after 39 posts without even a response from staff, it kind of makes you wonder.

Boy , I must have gone completely bonkers for awhile. Next thing your going to tell me is that there have been no posts removed. :rolleyes:

Hmmm, I make a mistake, It is noticed almost immediately. But yet there still in no response to the original problem. :argh:

Yes, but it seems to be YOUR problem. Everyone else here is saying the site flies for them.

read the posts that are saying the same thing I am. But we are al whiners according to you anyway.

Same here and the site is rendering very strangely.

Read this one

Yes, I'm having the same problem :(

This one

I don't know if this is related but when I am on the main page, I get the error page that comes up when the site goes down telling you to goto the IRC, I refresh and it goes away. I click on a link to go else where on Neowin, and I get the same error, refresh and back to normal.

This one

Just wanted to add that I am getting a few IPS Driver errors as well, just within the last 5 minutes. I even had one in the recent forum activity area.

This one.

Apologize in advance for bumping an old thread if I shouldn't have, its not that old.

Last few days, about a week or more even maybe, browsing Neowin forums has been a struggle. It seems fine and super fast bout 70% of the time, but then I just get pages that take foreverrrr to load, load all messed up with no formatting if they do, or just get this timeout error, constantlyyyyyyyyyyy.

Connection Interrupted

The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.

The network link was interrupted while negotiating a connection. Please try again.

I've tried adjusting different stuff in Firefox, no pipelining, ipv6 on and off, no adjusting of connection limits, and just using another browser entirely, Google Chrome (official version not the dev version) and IE8 (that ships in Win7 beta). Having exact same problem in every browser no matter what I do.

Before say check firewall/network settings, I have, and, Neowin is the ONLY site I have this problem with.

Its becoming reallyyyy irritating.

This one and the ones that were in fact removed.

No, this would be a problem, as opposed to a lifestyle choice.

I'm sure you'll blame the MSM, but no posts were removed from this thread recently.

Why can't you stay on point. The slowness and unresponsiveness of this forum has nothing to do with the MSM or anyone lifestyle. I don't even know what the hell you are talking about there. I do know that myself and others get IPB errors at times of the day. The site is slow to load. There are problems , but all that Neowin has done since the original report is to stick their head in the sand. Since there has not been a reply after 40 posts, that is all I can believe that Neowin is doing. Now try to stay on topic and explain why?

1. There was not a single reply for weeks.

2. The problem exists and not just on my end, as other sites I visit work fine.

1. There was not a single reply for weeks.
Site is ok here and was ok for the last few weeks...

Stop downloading porn/torrent and it will be ok...

What's MSM? Google found: methyl sulfonyl methane :p

Sorry but I don't do that, I don't even have a client to download a torrent with.

BTW: All of the complaints were not from me and they are intermittent.

Even if there would be 100 complains, that don't mean that Neowin the site itself have problems you know.

That can mean that there is few persons that download like crazy, few persons that have trouble with their PC (Malwares), few person that have trouble with their ISPs, that few problems have occurred between their ISP and the ISP that give IP to the Host that host Neowin, that could mean that the server could have got too many request at that time, and there many other reasons that could happens and that is impossible to fix for Neowin, since they are not from them.

You act like EVERY TIME there is a bug, and someone complain, it's the fault of Neowin.

Sorry, but this is not the case... I would says that 90% of slowdowns and bugs on a site are not actually happening on the site's server.

    • This machine could very well be a second gaming PC for their living room as a console experience. So we would have to assume their main PC exists as well; With that said, I have 10gb home network with a 2.5gigabit internet connection here so we tend to have more than enough speed to download games. However, we can't make use of the 10gb LAN using Steam's built in transfer tool because it always compresses transfers and that slows the transfer down to well below a standard gigabit port speeds, sometimes as slow as 200-300Mb/s transfers. While that's probably still faster than most internet connections anyway, if they'd fix the LAN transfer issue it'd be upto x5 faster even on a gigabit LAN, than simply dropping a 2.5gbe port on there with hopes of a few people having fast internet connections. There are solutions, work arounds, like using LANCache if you run a NAS... or simply copying the files over manually using a network share.
    • Samsung announces ultra-fast UFS 5.0 storage to supercharge mobile AI by Paul Hill Local AI models tend to run a lot more slowly than cloud services like Claude and Gemini; however, Samsung has just announced that it has developed its UFS 5.0 solution, which increases data transfer to speeds of 10.8GB/s, enabling faster storage and processing in mobile memory that has the potential to provide more optimal local AI experiences. Commenting on this development, Jangseok Choi, head of Memory Product Planning at Samsung Electronics, said: If you’ve tried local AI, you’ll know it can be quite slow, especially if using the larger parameter models. By developing this new solution, Samsung says that storage is evolving from just storing data to a core piece of infrastructure that supports AI computation, too. The Korean company said that UFS 5.0 integrates the latest embedded memory interface standard from JEDEC and achieves up to 10.8 gigabytes per second (GB/s) transfer speeds. Regarding write speeds, Samsung UFS 5.0 can reach 9.5 GB/s. Both the read and write speeds are twice as fast as those of the previous UFS 4.1 standard. Aside from being ideal for local AI, Samsung’s UFS 5.0 is more power efficient by 40% compared to UFS 4.1. Samsung achieved this by implementing innovations such as clock gating and multi-voltage technologies. UFS 5.0 is also ultra-compact at just 7.5mm x 13mm x 0.9mm; that is 16.7% smaller than UFS 4.1. The company said it will be bringing it to multiple devices in the future, including mobile, wearable, and extended reality.
    • A bit like the steamdeck, this probably isn't for you.
    • Gamers Nexus already did their review, and building your own will be faster and cheaper, so not very convincing.
    • They've told outlets who got review units that it isn't. Partially because they believe that contributes to closed ecosystems. GamersNexus also believes this is because Valve's fighting a monopolistic practices lawsuit in Europe right now. They've also never subsidized any of their past hardware efforts and well, they definitely aren't subsidizing the Steam Deck right now.
