Thanks for the tips everyone. I'm going to give them a try. Currently logged in via Bing, which I normally never use.

Again, failed to login on my go to, Duck Duck Go, Chrome and finally got in on Edge. Cleared history, cookies but to no help. Using Edge, posting or changing to anything takes over 30 seconds. Very fustrating!

2 hours ago when I signed in this morning it was 2+ minutes per activity/function. Now significantly faster, but still having a posting issue in the DITY Galleries. I posted about that elsewhere. Absolutely frustrating!

Definitely something is out of whack.

I get an AlmaLinux Test Page when I try to access the site my usual way.

Wow, 516 guests? And it's still running fast for me, using Google Chrome. Still getting an error message each time I reply, that duplicates my message.

My "Forbidden" issue has been resolved after receiving a direct email update from Paul. Current access and page to page/activity times are greatly sped up. Only seeing a couple of seconds lag time vs a couple of minutes.

Thanks You Paul!!! yahoo

Today's access and actions have been much speedier with no error message on my end (knock on wood)! thumbs_up

Have also seen a big increase in posting activity (new posts/replies in the last 24 hours), so it looks likes folks are getting back in and active again - YAY! yahoo

I didn't get on till after 7:30 pm tonight. A little slow for initial loading, signing in and first couple of forum pages. My first attempted reply resulted in the below error message. Happened two more times and then things sped back up to mostly normal action times.

All I could get was an "Error 404" for about 2 weeks. Obviously, I could get back on today.
