Elixant, our host, have informed us that BurstNet, the datacentre Elixant use, has been subjected to a DOS (Denial Of Service) attack. An attack of this sort can flood server connections, resulting in very slow server speed or in the worst case a total crash.
If your SayBox is loading slowly and stopping the rest of your webpage to finish loading, you should remove the code from your page until the server speed is back to normal - we hope the downtime won't be last long and would like to apologise to any members who've had this problem.

Yes, I noticed that at first, but now it seems much better. I think they fixed it.
