: why is this forum so slow?
dxpxe 12-10-2008, 01:13 PM and here i am thinking its my computer, actually stopped coming on here so much becaus the page just would not load sometimes.
as of i dunno earlier this week it seems to have gotton better though. im asuming the new server has been installed or your injecting the old one with a spare zex kit?
JTstyle 12-11-2008, 04:22 PM This forum has ran slower and slower every since the "take over" it's all the popups and ads, no matter the connection it will continue to drag and drag and drag. Like T-Pain said this forum has officially been CHOPPED AND SCREWED!!!!
dxpxe 12-14-2008, 07:35 PM bottle musta ran out, slow as balls on a old guy again
eric96ser 12-17-2008, 09:45 AM I use Firefox with Ad Blocker Plus, and I don't notice any speed difference between this forum and any other, with or without ads.

It's not so much the traffic that causes slowness.... You get slowness when loading pages because of all the garbage ad servers that are being contacted to populate content on the page. Many page sections will not populate until the ad server has been queried, resolved and transfer data to the destination. Great way to wreck a community.
Coheed 03-11-2009, 09:05 AM I agree, this forum is slow. Sometimes pages don't even load. Hence why I rarely contribute anymore.
Why doesn't the problem get fixed?

Problem's on your end, then. I never have any issues with this site loading...
BORNGEARHEAD 03-11-2009, 12:48 PM This forum is def. slow and the pages don't always load. It just extra loaded full of advertising crap.
chriscar 03-11-2009, 01:37 PM I'm going to ask the support group to look into this, but I don't have any problem with the site loading slowly.

eric96ser 03-11-2009, 02:14 PM I don't have an issue either, and I use a different computer at home and at work.
swiss 03-11-2009, 02:16 PM Mine is very slow sometimes when I'm at work (on a fairly new ThinkPad with 1gbps connection), but I never have any problems at home (older Compaq on Comcast high speed). The difference is my home machine has AdBlock and NoScript.
Administrator 03-20-2009, 03:12 PM I as well experience no slow downs. Can we start reporting times of the slowdowns? Also, your location may help too. I will see if anything corresponds with my performance graphs.
