Can I suggest that the technical guys consider posting a banner, or something similar, so that everyone knows the current state of play with Auctiva as soon as they log in? We would then be immediately aware of issues with any parts of the site, slowness, etc.and could try again later, rather than hanging around trying in vain to list. It is very annoying to be faced with a variety of 'error' messages or interminable slowness and not know what is causing it, or how long it's going to last.
I understand now that there is a current problem with the firewall. However, I could load fairly quickly early Sunday morning from the UK, but by lunchtime it was getting tricky and by tea-time well nigh impossible. This , to a non-techy, HAS to be a bandwidth issue, surely?
