    Does anyone else find that the web page on here loads up so slow?

    Sometimes it is okay for a few hours, but almost on a daily basis, you reply to someone, hit send, then the page just hangs...:bored:

    If you press send again, you end up with a repeat message.

    Sometimes refeshing the page helps, but I find it all disrupts the flow of debate somewhat.

    According to Google there was one creature that was slower than this webpage - but it is now extinct.

    Couldn't run from it's predators fast enough...

    The more traffic this forum recieves, the more slowly it will run. It is the same for all websites. It will always happen. Just try to listen to some calming music and open tabs when this happens :p

    Its not only this forum, it is other forums too. If it is busy, it slows down. That will happen and I admit, it is bloody annoying!

    Yeah it's been very frustrating for a long time, not just the day long or longer down periods just everyday posting and having to log back on, and back page to get to the post you were trying to post and resubmit it. I've been over at a forum I used to post on, left because of the childish foul mouths and am pretty invested there after two days of posting and the threads here having died.

    Shame I enjoyed the posting here with the mods at least attempting to keep it civil and keep the juveniles out.

    If it was slow before, the problem was 'resolved' over the past two days - the site was down entirely!

    Wow ... I'm a patient person, but sometime the forum is so slow that I move on to other sites and forget this is still trying to post or refresh.
