Very slow system response today. Anyone else experiences that? Oleg Max Sep 18, 07:56

every couple of pages times out on me this morning... RazorHawk Sep 18, 08:06

Same here... {nm} slappydavid Sep 18, 08:59

Same here - using Chrome. {nm} MojaveMeg Sep 18, 08:22

same here - using Explorer 8 {nm} daveart Sep 18, 09:16

Yes. Very annoying. {nm} Rigit Sep 18, 09:55

There's someone overloading our server with multiple connections since yesterday. {nm} Antibody Sep 18, 10:03

is it this guy? RazorHawk Sep 18, 11:18

No. {nm} Antibody Sep 18, 16:10

Funny . . . No I have not started scripting against HSX.... websch01ar Sep 19, 05:52

nothing against you.... RazorHawk Sep 19, 08:16

What is their IP address? I have enough bandwith to ping flood them to death. Problem will be solved. {nm} up_up_and_away Sep 18, 13:36

Be careful, with all the current new internet laws, that could be illegal, especially if you declare your intentions on a public forum. {nm} elchan Sep 18, 13:45

Don't worry, I have the power. :) Seriously, Antibody, give me their IP address. {nm} up_up_and_away Sep 18, 13:50

Now I understand the purpose of your warning. You didn't want me shutting you down. HaHa!! {nm} up_up_and_away Sep 19, 13:05

Well, I'm not doing anything underhanded. I've mention several times on various boards, that I'm using a spreadsheet to track my port. elchan Sep 19, 13:30

Oh, btw, was it my IP address causing the problem? Just so I don't cause problems again. {nm} elchan Sep 19, 14:00

We're under attack! Get the womenfolk and kiddies into the bunker!! DTravel Sep 18, 13:39

Yeah, I'm timing out all over the place too. Thought it was because my port has over 1100 stock in it. {nm} elchan Sep 18, 12:48

Part of the problem is that the HSX site works on a pull model instead of push. I keep having to refresh periodically to see forum updates. elchan Sep 18, 13:49

The site is still very broken for me. Pages are to unreliable to make proper trades. {nm} up_up_and_away Sep 19, 08:06

Block the IP and be done with it. (nm) Wit Sep 19, 08:26

For Antibody, just in case it's my spreadsheet causing the problem, is the problem being cause by IP 173.178.*? elchan Sep 19, 09:01

It is still painfully slow for me. I haven't made a trade for a couple of days because it is too annoying. When can we have the game back??? {nm} firefox Sep 19, 09:49

No more timeouts for me today. So it's probably not my IP that's being blocked. {nm} elchan Sep 19, 09:53

This isn't going to end well. {nm} edzep - Port Monkey! Sep 19, 10:16

Are we not allowed to use spreadsheets and macros? elchan Sep 19, 10:58

Depends edzep - Port Monkey! Sep 19, 11:05

I did not know that. Hard to believe that people who own over 2000 stocks actually clicked on each stock from the web page to by it. elchan Sep 19, 11:25

If you issue the trade manually from your spreadsheet that is ok, but if you have the sheet auto trade based on criteria that is illegal {nm} JDolphin Sep 19, 12:45

Well, my spreadsheet doesn't do anything without me around, to allow it. The problem is that for the bulk buys... elchan Sep 19, 12:50

I'd like to hear Antibodies' opinion on whether I'm breaking any rules with my spreadsheet or if it is indeed me causing the problem. {nm} elchan Sep 19, 12:51

I would like to hear his opinion too. and welcome the era of hsx autotrading. Will save me so much time. {nm} up_up_and_away Sep 19, 13:15

One click for multiple trades is considered manipulation. {nm} Antibody Sep 19, 13:43

Thanks. So is it ok, if I generate the posts individually, and then post a trade with each click? {nm} elchan Sep 19, 13:58

Only if you share. grammar Sep 19, 16:21

Same here and was happening last night. {nm} grammar Sep 19, 11:49

I continue to struggle. Slow response times; sometimes no response if i use the drop down box to trade. {nm} goodvibe61 Sep 19, 12:25

It seems similar to the slowdowns we had back when the solution was thought to be removal of portfolio section summary info (as a default). {nm} edzep - Port Monkey! Sep 19, 12:31

I'm not running any of the bulk buys today, so any slow down is not caused by me. elchan Sep 19, 12:54

Still very slow {nm} Goremaster Sep 21, 07:31

Firefox here and it times out its so slow. {nm} Pandorawc Sep 23, 13:02
