The site is VERY SLOW, ALL THE TIME

Postby hiddenbeauty » Sun Jun 12, 2016 11:18 am

It loads so very very slowly. Why don't you use a cache, CDN, or something like that? Load the ads after the main page content loads. It's awfully, awfully, sickeningly slow. How can you run a forum like this in 2016?

The site isn't slow for me at all. Depending on your browser, there may be some extensions you can download that would improve the site performance for you. I have ads, tracking, and non-essential scripts blocked, although I can't say how much each of those contributes to page loading speed.

Adblock makes a huge difference.

This site loads very slowly for me, too, regardless of the device I use.

I think it is the ads.

I like this website. I would be thrilled if page load time could be improved.

What is ad blocking? The term is self explanatory but could anyone give me a bit more info? If I can block the ads, that would be great!

I use Firefox (rather than Internet Explorer or Chrome) with their ad-blocker. I don't see any ads at all and the page loads instantly for me.

Chrome over here, loads just fine. Ads are not a problem. It's either your browser or PC, OP :wink:

If you have Firefox or Google Chrome they have extensions downloadable from their websites. Ad-Block and Ad-Block Plus is where it's at.
