    I wouldn't ticket 'em. I'd arrest 'em.

    We didn't have this trouble when Elwood ran the board. :elwood:

    I can't get a rep box to come up at all.

    And it's taking MINUTES to load one thread.

    No problems at the moment, but the board was slow to the point of uselessness over the weekend.

    :lol: Yeah we did.

    This old Battlestar was patched together and barely functional. O2C slept under a console in Aux Damage Control because the starboard flight pod (The Green Room) would lose life support every minute or so. Nick, well, Nick was great until the night of the tragic zero-g toilet incident.

    Entrails for miles... :cry:

    It's getting worse on my end. The site never seems to completely load in either. Apparently, I'm not patient enough to wait several minutes for it too.

    Suuuuuuuuper slow.

    On the old, crappy computers at work the board is nearly useless. Takes several minutes sometimes for pages to load and the rep function is nearly noexistent.

    Slightly better on my home PC, but not by much. Rep barely works here, too.

    The board is getting worse for me. The damn thing hardly loads into my computer at all. For whatever reason the board loads in best on the cell phone and ipad. Even then it still drags big time.

    Still have a ticket open with the host and they're looking at stuff. But I'm not seeing a performance issue this morning. Anyone?

    Not here, and not during any time over the past month.
    The board seems instantaneous, which is odd.
    I usually get slowdowns at least as bad as everyone else.

    I'm getting a very slow connection. It took 35 seconds to load the main forum page, 15 seconds to load the help desk forum, and this thread took so long to load, I was able to log into my board, upload my latest set of nudie pics for the Velvet Orgasm adult lounge, check my email, close that tab, and the little indicator was still loading.

    I've had no problem with other websites. This is the only one right now. Even graphic intensive sites load in much faster than WF does.
