It has periods af vhen it vorks alright, but sometimes its speed falls greatly.

I have this thing I do where if the forum is being really slow I go do something else and then I check again later.

Or sometimes I don't even check again later because the thing I went to go do instead wasn't pissing me off by being slow.

But I'm just a weirdo.

I just leave the page loading whilst doing whatever in other tabs. I s'pose I'm used to slow loading times. *glares at old laptop*

This might just be only for me but I find if I just copy my post just in case, then click away to the forum, even though the page had still been loading after I hit post, my post was there anyways.

It keeps me from double posting. And if it didn't actually post, since I copied my message I can just repaste it and away I go again.

Yeah, it does that with me too. I'll press submit and then leave it loading for a while, and if I go back to it and it's still loading I can just go back a page and refresh and my message is usually there.

Yeah, usually I just get the occasional REALLY SLOW POST LOADING (but this only happens when two people post at the same time it seems), but last night was unbearably slow.

Bacon sounds about right

a server upgrade would help, but I dunno if Katie would want to buy a better one or however it works

But then again, when it stops being slow, we could like...do something else so the slowness doesn't worsen

buh i don't know we'll probably have to live with it for a bit

Just go do something else is the forum is slow. Also, posting on the forum that the forum is slow only makes the problem worse. Pretty much everyone that comes here already knows its slow so its kind of pointless.

The past three new posts I've seen all said they were done by Le Great Handsome Oppressor but then none of them actually were.

The forum is a binge drinker.

It makes me think twice about logging in sometimes, yeah.

I don't want to bother Katie about forum issues, but it's been really bad lately, and is only showing signs of getting worse.

The forums load times have had their ups and downs, just give it a bit more patience. It shouldn't be that big of a deal WHEN YOU HAVE THE WORLD AT YOUR FINGERTIPS.
