I'm amazed this site still exists at all. Whoever owns it seems to have lost interest in it years ago but is still paying the hosting and domain fees.

I am kinda sure the site is using an extremely poor web site hosting service... probably at very low cost or maybe some form of homemade DIY hosting... probably can't handle more than 4 or 5 hits at once so it slows way down to a crawl and your browser finally times out? I have noticed how slow it responds and how many folks will keep hitting the submit button that results in multiple duplicate posts.... logging off and waiting a few minutes may help to clear up some traffic or posting at night when traffic is low?

I've gotten gateway erors or time outs. They do seem to have been getting more frequent. Some days are fine with no problems and then other days it seems to happen half a dozen times. I think as the site has gotten older it has gotten slower and less responsive.

Always figured it was my cheap wifi. Or cheap nook, cheap web site, well.....something cheap.

Admin is probably installing new software.

I hate to see this happening. I for one would be willing to kick in a contribution.

My experience (and outlook) matches those already stated.

I get the gateway error message a lot earlier in the day. It seems to be better at night.

I find myself more frequently leaving the tab I have ag.com on for another tab whilst the site thinks about moving on.

That's been happening a lot more of late.
I won't be surprised when the end comes.
