    You know, I'm running Chrome and the board is blazing fast for me. :shrug:

    Also, when I switch to other skins in Firefox, it returns to blazing fast for me.

    That, in the unlikely event that that's the case (as opposed to, say, a problem on your computer), would be your ISP's problem, not ours.

    Yeah, back after we restored from the Thanksgiving backup, it was the same story - "I'm still getting slow page loads," "Rep takes FOREVER to load HOW WILL I REP WAR?" etc., etc.

    I don't mean to sound callous about it, but everyone here's hitting the same Wordforge and the same AddThis. The fact that the issues occur to a very small subset of users with no discernible pattern indicates that it's far more likely to be an ISP/computer/browser issue, rather than an issue at WF's end. As I've mentioned before, if you see the status bar chilling on a "Waiting for..." asset, let us know about it.

    It got worse when the new feature was added. If you don't care, then you don't fuckin' care.

    O2C and Kyle are looking at it. I'm not seeing anything that looks like it should be slowing stuff down.

    I thought the verdict was it wasn't affecting enough people to make it worth taking any serious action.

    What is a NAT? I don't know if I'm behind one or not.

    I think it stands for something like Network Address Translation. :shrug:

    I remember it coming up when a friend was trying to host a game server from my house.
