It’s nice that I haven’s seen the alligator lately. Whenever I actively participate in LB, I always see the hostgator. I was thinking why this is always popping out and some point, I lost my comments and restart again. That’s the reason why I kept on copying the comment before having the super punch in submit button. I am not sure if it is connected to internet connection speed. It wasn’t likely since I had upgraded my internet service provider’s speed. Do you have any ideas?

The alligator has nothing to do  with the site but the ISP.  If you wait for some time the site will open as soon as the ISP connects you.

@bestwriter I guess my notion is different. It is nice that there is no connection to my theory. My ISP is the culprit then.

@Shavkat Ha ha.. Yes even I haven’t seen it since yesterday. As support said that they are working on it. So may be that problem is got solved. Good for sites and good for us too. It was too annoying in starting when it keep getting popup and we need to refresh to get back the page. But now it working fine. But it would be great if they improve bit speed of site.

I never saw the alligator… I have a pretty good ad block/pop up block program

@anand It was really annoying. I hope the alligator will be gone. It takes a lot of time doing some activities.

@kaylar I guess you are so lucky then.

@ Shavkat.. That’s true that it was very time consuming when we have to refresh the page again for going to page. I just saw it one time after commenting here. Lol. But surely this stuff has reduced in compare to past.

@anand I hope they repair it. The site is slow in terms of submitting the comments. I need to wait before I can proceed. We hope for the best in everything. Be positive!

yes, I still see the alligator most of the time when the internet speed slows down, like 2 bars of WIFI.

If the wifi bar is 3 and above, nope I don’t see the alligator

However, if I had hot the submit button for my new post and the alligator pops up, my post had received by the LB team because I could see “awaiting for approval” stated.

So, that is good news to me.

Otherwise I had to retype the whole thing again.

THEN, i will KILL that alligator!

@peachpurple I am not sure if the site is too slow to downloading. Since the speed of my internet is 8mbps. I can’t get it.

my internet speed is at 5mbps

worst than yours!

However if my internet speed goes up to 10mbps, i don’t see the alligator screen.

i think it has to do with the internet speed especially if i post new article with images, the situation worsen

Commenting doesn’t pop up the alligator because no images for uploading

@peachpurple That’s what I am also thinking. However, the site sometimes is too slow to download. It is a bit slower than the other sites.

@ Shavkat Honestly saying now I haven’t seen alligator since many of last days. But just now when I click this thread it reappears for one time. lol.. what a coincident.

I don’t think it is related to internet speed. I mean if that is then we could have seen same thing with other sites too. Since last 3 to 4 days I haven’t seen it with my 1 mbps internet. So you can imagine. So I guess it was related to server issue or something, but I am happy that issue get solved now.

@ Shavkat  hahaha! This is a very intriguing title. I was wondering what this discussion was about 🙂
