Argentina
So today again SimHQ seems to be acting up on me. And I got curious if it's just me or there's something to it, it happens from time to time, it's not the first time.

I obviously connect from Argentina so there are tons of hubs and stuff that can mess up the connection.

It's not that it goes slow, but rather it will just not connect. For instance when posting it gets stuck and "adding pos to your watch list" can last for like a minute, the speed bar reading 200 b/s. biggrin

So anyone from outside the US, does this happens to you too or it's just me?

EDIT: I'm actually trying with a proxy right now and it works perfect... so it kind of answers it. Something smells with the route between SimHQ and me.

When you're feeling sad, just remember that somewhere in the world, there's someone pushing a door that says "pull".

I am in the US and had the same issue. The add server was the downfall as I watched it try to connect.

Yeah, but I have always had intermittent problems with Sim HQ....what do you guys want for your money?

Most of the time it's great and worth way more than every cent I don't pay for it. yep

Look for me on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook or Tic Toc...or anywhere you may frequent, besides SimHq, on the Global Scam Net. Aka, the internet.
I am not there, never have been or ever will be, but the fruitless search may be more gratifying then the "content" you might otherwise be exposed to.

I had some intermittent problems today. So I watched an original Star Trek episode and I forgot all about my SimHQ connectivity issue. smile


The issue is not p*ssy. The issue is monkey.
