I just did. About an hour ago, when trying to connect to forums as well.

I think I got your horse. I'll call him..."Mr. Ed".

Seems like something is screwy in the forums.

Oh, come one. Let him come back home with daddy.

Warn you, he´s got a serious seasickness problem. Nasty stuff, Captain.

What made you think we were going to ride him? These voyages are long, and we always like fresh meat with our seabiscuit. (In fact "Seabiscuit" was quite tasty a fortnight ago.) :)

Phew! I was getting the message and thought the IT Crowd at work were starting to restrict my access to the forum. Though have noticed for the last few days that access to the forum does slow down in the afternoons (UK time) and occasionally it will log me out.

We have had issues where single IP addresses were making the site crawl as it was trying to open too many pages - probably some sort of bad spider. We've added some protection to prevent it but it seems over zealous. We have reduced it so you should not see these IP messages any more but let us know if you do and exactly what you were doing before it happened.
