I don't think it was just P4C Karen, as all other Ning sites seemed to be running really slowly for me. But then suddenly yesterday it all started to fly along again.

I reckon it as either something with my ISP that has now changed or with the DNS servers that I route through that have changed.

Either way, all Ning sites are behaving properly now, so that's made me happy as I can now get back to being active!

Hi Dan

I think all of a sudden its running much faster again. The problem seemed to be the scripts I had in the right hand column which are all gone now. Let me know what you think...

Can you let me know of any outcome Dan as I will have to get some help on the matter if our site is at fault. I have reduced the amount of scripts running as I know they can take more time to download. I'm going to move the badge back over to the left today as that is a right side script now on every page so its one that area that could save time.

There's definitely been a marked slow down for me using the site, with no noticeable difference on other websites.

Just tested it on my laptop; normal internet connection and the site runs really slowly, on my mobile internet connection, flys along as ever...

Must be something to do with my internet connections or the DNS servers I'm using. Will do some digging.

ooh thats not good news Dan.

My comp is very slow on any site unfortunately so I probably don't notice any real difference.
I know at peak times thought that my broadband connections runs really really slowly and often grinds to a halt. I have BT broadband here.

Any ideas of further help and comments would be much appreciated

Is it just me, or has P4C got a lot slower recently? The site used to fly along, but of late I'm having to wait between pages.

First there was Earth and then there was Man. And Man reaped everything he could from our Earth but failed to "give back". And then there came a time of reckoning. And Man began to "give back"... Everything started to Change..... The World is changing. People are changing. And business has changed... Every business you find in our ethical directory is a giving business....giving back to Our Planet by working in the Spirit of Harmony with Earth. ...Every member on Pledging for Change is here because they believe in Giving Back in the Spirit of Harmony with Our Planet



Do all the good you can, By all the means you can, In all the ways you can, In all the places you can, At all the times you can, To all the people you can, As long as ever you can. -- John Wesley, "Letters of John Wesley"

Each time a man stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope, and crossing each other from a million different centres of energy and daring, those ripples build a current that can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance. -- Robert F. Kennedy
