    I take it the cause is a mega spike of traffic due to the obvious?

    Or is it coincidental?

    Or maybe it's just me...

    Slower than molasses going uphill in the wintertime for me. Hopefully the problem fixes itself soon.

    The forum's traffic quadrupled because of the teaser traffic. Not much we can do about it. I picked a hell of a time to catch up on Rebels.

    The last time I checked there were 900 members online and a bunch of guests. But it's getting better.

    After I saw the teaser this morning I thought to myself "I think I'll go over to the forums and talk about it..."

    You fool!!!!

    After trying to load the front page for a couple of minutes I gave up and played WoW all day. :)

    Hell, I'm slightly amazed Apple's trailer site didn't crash. I haven't even been on the main SW site today, god knows how that held up.

    Unlike the JC Forums, Apple's website has significantly greater processing power. How else do you think they handled tens of thousands users downloading content daily.

    Yeah, we know about the problem. This site is on a hosted server and yesterday's user load basically caused it to run out of bandwidth.
