It's bad enough that the GR tree isn't working properly but I'm finding that the A'y site is also unusually slow. I suppose it is just too many people using them today.

Incidentally if you get the 503 error or if GR sys there is trouble with the site and gives you the option of Refresh or Cancel then it is worth trying Refresh.

Apart from help from individual members, this site is total pants for building a family tree. I just enjoy the boards and leave the serious stuff to Ancestry.

Really don't care if I do get RRd!

First time I've seen it

HTTP Error 503. The service is unavailable.

I hope the GR staff are having a relaxing holiday. They should be busy when they get back to "work".

Getting REALLY fed up with this disaster of a site.


:-P :-P

PS Still laughing about GR's posts getting RR'd, and not back yet lolol :-D Would have thought they'd have a fix to stop their own posts being RRd

That happened to me as well Pamela.........typed in a whole load of info and it wouldn't save it.

It's becoming a 'part time' tree. :-|

Yes had same error code, just when I've found 2 new branches to add to my tree.
Looks Like I'll be dragging the mass of files out too and writing it all down again.
I'm still trying to find the best way of logging all my branches on one tree, but the paper is never big enough.

So I have folders with my main tree's, with loads of sub trees for other family members. There's one folder for each of my parents parents.
This seems to work although takes up loads of room as I also have an email folder, a photo folder and a few message folders. I need help or a bigger house lol

Fed up.

Home by myself.

MOTH is playing golf.

Good day to add the new names I've found to my GR tree, maybe search for some matches.

NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :-P :-P :-P :-P :-P :-P :-P

What else is there to do? Not in the mood for any housework.

Kindle is recharging.

I think I'll go out on the deck with a box of choccies & watch the ocean....... it's a warm day so I'll have to eat really fast :-D

getting really frustrated they should start giving us credits on our subscriptions. :-( :-( :-( :-( :-( :-( :-( :-( :-( :-(

Can't get tree -service unavailable - tells me someone don't exist after clicking on the exact link they have suggested under relatives - never get any new hot matches -every time I try to work on this site I have problems and error messages right left and centre- when I first joined this was a good site but now what exactly am I paying for? :-( :-( :-( :-( :-( :-( :-(

Why was I not surprised this morning to to see this "HTTP Error 503. The service is unavailable" and also to discover that the Gedcom facility is still not available :-(

I have a heart problem and I am getting worried because I will log on one of these days and the shock of finding everything working will be to much to cope with ;-)

'If you go to open your tree, it will open a new window. Click in the URL and change the 3.3.3 to 3.3.1 and press enter, this works for me'


It works for me too :-)

Did not work for me.

No tree, no keepsake access either. What a waste of time!!!!
