Is anyone else seeing more Free Republic server errors today?

We've all seen pages being slow to load / partial page loads for the last couple months. This goes beyond that. Two things I'm seeing:

1) Blank pages being "served". You hit a link, and get a blank page.

2) Connection errors - This is happening when posting a comment. When posting, I get a "server connection reset" error.

Is it time to swap out the hamsters running the FR servers for some fresh ones?

Lots of trouble today.

[Jim Robinson]

Ok, great! Thanks!

[Bruce Kurtz]

yes

[fivecatsandadog]

been seeing it up until now. Site came up but unable to open an article and/or post to it.

[9YearLurker]

Yep—frequently.

[Big Red Badger]

I’m getting them...
Last hour and a half.

[onedoug]

YES. TOO MANY.

[tomkat]

Much better than a few minutes ago, John .. thanks !

[RitaOK]

Yes.

Half loads, no loads, freeze loads, messages say “FR isn’t working”.

Been touch and go landing for a couple of days. Much worse today.

[Big Red Badger]

It’s a FESTIVAS miracle!

ALL BETTER!

FR has been slow to load for almost two months. Partial pages and other weird things. I’ve asked around and some have the same issues and some don’t. I don’t know what the issue is. Firefox just updated and I get a notice that the site isn’t secure?? It won’t autofill and I have to type in my handle?? I don’t now what that’s all about either. Any IT experts who know?

Anyone else have these issues??

On an iPad with lightning fast internet here. Keep getting the blank page but it refreshes to FR.

yes repeatedly

yes repeatedly

[RitaOK]

I know. Not able to respond makes me crazy. It feels like being stranded in a remote location and no one knows where you are.

[Sacajaweau]

Yay!!! It’s unbroken.

[bankwalker]

Twice?

[bankwalker]

Twice?

Firefox is refusing me an update because they say my Vintage Mac Mini (which suits me just fine!) is too OLD!

So, since I am having the same issues with FR (blank Pages, slow loads, etc), it is not due to Firefox. So I guess it’s the FR server.

Every now and then I see someone who disagrees with me, but not very often.
