I've been noticing the last couple days that it is getting progressively slower to begin page loading initially and after clicking a topic. This morning it was really slow so I did a trace route. The problem appears to be at the host location. It looks like it begins at the last hop at above.net but also seems to be having problems routing inside the host facility. The trace reported a possible firewall issue. The capture came out too small so here is a link to the route to run yourself:

You are right! Opening the board or any messages or posting on the board has been slow all week.
Must be lots of busnuts running around inside :D :P ;D
No problems on the BNO board

Less detail, but here is a trace from one of my desktops:

Trace complete.
It is very slow. It has to be the site as I am not having any problems with any other site.
For an hour or so it was out completely as were some other sites that I know are hosted at GoDaddy. It looked like maybe the GoDaddy nameservers NS3 and NS4 were down. The problem also intermittently effected the GoDaddy main site and their hosted email accounts.
Very, very slow. >:(
I've been experiencing the same for some time but it is getting worse every day. The one comedy forum I visit is doing the same thing but others are not. Getting frustrating.
