Slow speeds on website
« on: March 28, 2014, 07:11:04 am »
      Is anyone else having problems with speeds on this website ?  Sometimes it is fast, other times it takes up to 30 seconds to change a page or post.
      No it is not my computer.  All the other web sites and forums are fast, just this one site is slow sometimes.

     Sometimes it kicks me off, so I am glad this is not just me.

     I have thought the same thing, but when I have gone back to the home page and looked to see how many users were on, it was nothing more than an average day and sometimes less than 100.

i aint had much of a problem with the site being slow. its slower than other sites but not by much.

one issue i do have is when i log in and click view new posts it takes me to all the new posts since my last visit and sometimes it will say there are 2 or 3 pages and when i click page 2 it reloads page 1 and there is no longer more than one page of new posts ???
