Is this website really slow?

[Matiash]

Is it me and my crappy computer or is this website reeeeeaaaaallllllyyy ssssllloooow?

[Kay Four]

it was slow about an hour ago, but seems to be okay now.

[Rob Van Der Sloot]

It depends on how many users are online. If a huge amount of users is online, sometimes the website refuses to load at all.

[Demented Soul]

Been completely fine, but when I was logged out a few hours ago, the ad server was delaying the load alot.

[Darksungames]

For me this site is usually slow..

[jerseyjoe]

No slower than usual. Guess it depends on server load.

ad server was doing that to me yesterday.

The ad server does seem to be the slowdown most of the time. Pages will lag for 10+ seconds with "waiting for server ads.____________" or such.

Yesterday it was bad. So far today it's responsive.

[Zeldane]

Runs perfectly smooth and all for me. I've been on these forums since 2003.

I give this forum thumbs up!

[Nigel The Great]

mine is slow... :sad:

[Findariel]

It depends. Sometimes it's almost unaccessible for an hour or so, but usually it runs rather smooth.

Ever since I became Silver Pal and so I don't have to load ads anymore it's really fast. :smiley:

(shameless advertisement!)

[snowkissed]

Funny. I was a silver pal, lost the ads, was made a moderator, got ads back.

Not a pal at the moment, so I'm still looking at ads.

[Nigel The Great]

what are these "pal" things?

They are people who have donated to the site, either for perks of being a pal (signature, ad-free browsing, etc) or ust to help with the networks ;)
