For the past few days the forums show up on my browser as text only, and missing lots of features ..I just switched over to Windows XP. Otherwise, the news page is normal, but the forums are drastically worse. ANy ideas bout where to check/change??
 
Sounds like the CSS is missing, clear your cache and try again. And also check to see if you can load this page. It should just be lots of text.

Can I add I also have this problem and GTPlanet is horrendously slow. Seems more related to cache.gtpla.net since images don't load but text does.

THANK YOU all that replied.
The problem was too stupid to mention*, so I wont say what it was, but thanks a bunch.


*for some unknown reason I got bumped into the mobile version and didnt know it.
 
Same problem as opladener, button and images acting up, being replaced by text. Loading times strangely slow and no, I am not on mobile version.

Yeah, one more thing, this only effects the forums.
 
Hmmm, all systems appear to be go here, but as the complaints are coming from those of you in Europe I'm going to assume there may be some problems with one of the local content delivery servers over there. If you guys could share your ping and traceroute results for cache.gtpla.net that may provide a few more clues.
 
It seems to be intermittent. But I hope this is useful.

gtplanet.net ping = 100ms

cache.gtpla.net ping = 20ms

Thanks. Those speeds look good, but there are servers in London I think your request should be serviced from. Please keep the traceroutes coming, guys. :cheers:
 
Everything suddenly seems quick again for me now, I ran traceroute again and speeds are pretty much the same, apart from this one, which went from.

I'll keep an eye on it.
 
Thanks, I found the source of the problem and this should be fixed for everyone now.
 
Yes it is.Thanks Jordan.👍
Sorry but I don't have the Knowledge to provide the information that Owen gave You.:guilty:
 
I'm bumping this cause this is happening to me a lot. Firefox 3.6.13. I uninstalled adblock cause I thought that was the problem but no go on that.
 
Everything appears to be fine at the moment on my end. If you could provide your traceroute results, as requested above, that might be helpful.
 
Ok, sorry bout that.
