Those other sites are not on the same route to this one. How is it you can drive to one city in an hour, but another city no further away takes two hours? It's not the city's fault - but the route involved. And I don't control the route your ISP uses to get here.

I access this site on my phone. Now I don't know if it would make a difference but when the site was only displaying the sticky pages I was on wifi. So I switched to my LTE through my cell phone carrier and refreshed the page and the same thing happened. I thought it was my browser so I fully exited out of the application. And retried it. Same thing happened. I decided to let it wait a couple hours. And the same thing happened. It didn't work till the next day. Idk if it was my fault, I am just trying to help incase it wasn't.

It had to be something on your end as no portion of this site was removed at any time.

it appears that a lot of people from different places had exactly the same problem at the same time. Hard to believe that it is a just mere coincidence. Just my thoughts.

No it's not a coincidence. As I have tried to explain, apparently to no avail, is that at some point all routes converge. If each of you tried to drive to Los Angeles, and there was a highway 100miles outside of LA on the eastern side that was choked with traffic, at some point people from all those various places coming along that route would eventually all run into that same bottleneck, while others coming in from the north of town might get in fine. But neither case would indicate that LA had disappeared.

Note the postings made on the day in question - they came in all day, round the clock. If this site wasn't working then, how did so many others manage to post on it that day?

Same thing with page loading times. That's always on your end. The site is available, but how fast your ISP can load it onto your computer (that's right - your ISP delivers it to you, not me) depends on how long your ISP takes to route to and from this site and the limit of your internet connection speed.
