    I'm sick and tired of logging on here and the darn thing taking forever to load a thread. It's especially slow if I post an answer, or (in this case) post a new thread. What is the problem, and can it be fixed? Don't tell me it's at my end - I've tried all kinds of fixes and upgrades. Makes no difference!

    People seem to automatically blame web sites for running slow - like the web site owner is waving the throttle stick on a dyno and just for fun pisses people off with reving it up and down.

    It ain't so Joe

    At any time, during any day, of any week, any website, can be slow for any number of reasons.

    MORE TIMES THAN NOT - it is IT traffic in general more than a specific web site traffic and bad weather / power line interuptions etc. etc..

    I have been on many sites where it is quick and then at times not - to load info etc.

    More times than not it is NOT the website but IT issues/interference in general.

    I'm no genius, but if this is the ONLY website I visit (out of many) during a specific day that is running slow, then it would stand to reason the problem is here - whatever that problem may be.
    Maybe Ryan can do nothing about it, maybe he can - I don't know.
    The only thing I can do about it is let off a little steam, and hope it gets better, because I'm tired of thrashing for hours just for a tiny improvement.

    Has been fine here. I have Explorer..Firefox..and Google Chrome. Sometimes I switch browsers and speed is much faster.
    Google chrome seems fastest..
