Is this forum sometimes down or hung?

Half the time when I try to log into this Arduino forum, I get a blank screen with nothing - no headers, no little spinning circle, nothing. I can sit there for 30 minutes watching it in case it's just slow at that particular time, but I never get anything.

Later that day suddenly it works fine and I can post and read, no problem (like right now).

I haven't had this problem with any other forum or website, just the Arduino forum.

What's going on?

Did you pay your dues?

Yes, sometimes the forum has issues. The Arduino team is aware of the issues, and attempting to fine tune the system to improve it's reliability. Rumor has it that changes are coming this week to improve things.

Thank you, PaulS. I was wondering if it was me who was doing something wrong (that's usually the case). Kudoes to the Arduino team for all their great work - thank you for providing this forum!

I am also getting a blank screen when I use my PC with Vista and IE 10.
I have no problem with it when I use my Android tablet.
