Waymarking crashing a lot for anyone else?

[+Benchmark Blasterz]

Hey WMers

 

I am back from vacation with about a million WMs to create and visit, but the Waymarking website (when it works) is suuuuppperrrr sloooooooowwwwww. When I try and post a visit, I get various error messages such as "sql transaction has completed and is no longer useable" or "the request has timed out, the server did not respond". If I click to retry the visit it goes through in a second -- OR I get the "server failed to respond" message again. VERY BOOORING to wait 25 seconds to post a single visit, then get a termination message.

 

Restarting is not helping.

 

I have verified that it is NOT on my end -- everything else works perfectly with our WiFi and Fios.

 

The regular Geocaching website works perfectly -- quick as a flash.

 

Anyone else having these problems?

Just tried doing a search, and it's not responding for me either.

Tried a search & visit again and it worked. Something isn't working right.

Thanks ChileHead -- MY BROTHER!! I wholeheartedly agree with your assessment of the heat in food ha ha ha

 

I will try and alert GS

Now it is happening with both internet explorer AND Google Chrome, and the File Upload service has quit working.

 

I had been looking forward to a fun day of visits and new waymarks, but looks like that is off, and who knows when I can get back to it. This is not good for the hobby.

Good idea to register a complaint. I did. If enough of us do, maybe Groundspeak will realize that we are here, and that we do pay for this site. (Though there are times I've really considered quitting. Since they don't seem to care.)

Sorry - didn't look there. Bruce -- you can move this if you think it is appropriate.

The people at Groundspeak DO care! There are a lot of factors that come into play in regard to Waymarking.com Yes, we do get the short end of the stick, but it is not because of a lack of caring.

 

Anyway, yes the photo loader was almost unusable a couple of days ago. Things a a little better now, but still timing out some when trying to review waymarks.
