I don't honestly recall having this much trouble accessing the site ever before. And it's been going on for 2+ weeks now. Usually very slow, most threads come up with the error message oops (so the site loads with a huge lag, but none of the threads), occasionally also (on a daily basis) the site cannot be reached at all. Every other website I access on a daily basis, works just as usual. Just DR1 does not. I hope Waitman finds the root cause.
EDIT; just right now again: saving this post took almost ten seconds...
