I suspect the ISPs are either having cache problems or international problems. More like something got cached sometime ago and they aren't refreshing yet.
Ive noticed slow downs & timeouts intermittently in international traffic for the last week. It seems to effect various ISP's (orcon, telecom, vodafone & clear). It was worse last week, not too bad now except for the odd hickup. Maybe this issue is related.
I mainly noticed pages loads were slow, with long pauses in the content rendering parts of some webpages. The odd bad gateway message, that vanishes if I hit reload. Geekzone avatars have been visible for me however.
I'm not getting any avatars, CSS or most images. Using Opera via Vodafone.
If I switch to IE or Firefox then it works ok (but I use Opera as my main browser). This would suggest a browser issue, but I've cleared the cache and checked that I hadn't disabled images or author CSS.
Accessing http://css.geekzone.co.nz/default.css (which I assume is the main style sheet for the forums?) just gives me "Geekzone is currently down for maintenance." message.
Thanks... Good, the filters are working. Opera is actually pretty poor in some parts - we serve the css from the main site now for Opera and mobile browsers, from cdn to other browsers.
