    Is the board running slow for anyone else? It took about 1-2 minutes for me to be able to start this thread. Rep is also really slow.

    Ok, I *never* complain about board speed, and even I'm having SEVERE performance problems w/ WF in the past day or so.

    Is someone looking into the issue?

    I wasn't online all day yesterday due to being sick. Not seeing an issue right now. I do now we've been being bombarded with new user requests lately, and most of 'em seem to be spambots. O2C?

    Seems to have happened since that board upgrade, a while back, to be honest with you.

    I wonder if they just dumped you guys on a virtual box with more clients?

    At 2317 CST, it took 04:01.5 for this page to load. While waiting, I ran a speed test in another window. From here to Clifton, NJ (the same town the server is in), I was getting 15.7mbps down and 1.92mbps up with a 12 ping.

    It seems like the board and really slowed down since the maintenance last weekend. It is still way in the hell slow for me. At least for me, it is just this site other sites and pages load with no problem.

    It's been slower than Christmas last night and today.

    Which kinda had me cussing my brand new laptop computer that I bought yesterday at Best Buy and spent all evening setting up and configuring.

    ASUS U52 with an Intel CORE i5, 4 gig RAM, WiMAX capable. I'm giving Kaspersky Anti Virus a try on it.

    I'm having a problem with rep and I can't figure out if it's the board or the new notebook. I'm having to right click and open in a new window to give rep.

    It isn't your computer. Something is up with the board and the server its on I think. I'm having to do the same thing. This is the only bbs that I participate on that I'm having this type of problem with too.

    The funny thing is the board runs smoother and faster on the cell phone than it does on the computer. :shrug: Go figure on that one. The rep box pops up on the cell too. Don't have to open it in a new window like I do on the computer.

    Remains slow for me (only at Wordforge, no other sites) and I can't give rep. The rep dialog box never appears.

    A couple of the games in the arcade won't load for me, otherwise I'm seeing no issues. I will do a restart, see if that clears it.

    The rep box appears here if I wait but it's a good eight count to a thousand before it does. It's quicker to click it again and close the repeat rep box.

    :ohnoes:

    We've been rerouted through the government mainframe!!

    Something's definitely up. I can't get to the server control panel at all . . . the connection never goes thru. I've put in a ticket with the host.
