• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

i notice lots of times this forum taked FOREVER to load, and sometimes won't load at all. there are alot of times i don't bother coming here because of it. i use alot of other forums for different topics, and they don't do this. why here?
 
Strange as I'm at the same location as you (earth) and I don't have any problems. Try clearing your cache and delete your cookies. Perhaps there is something wrong there.

Same here; like Huub, I've never found the forum, or any other pages o the site, to load slowly.

It must be something about your confuter, or the way your browser interacts with this site.
 
from 6 am new york time until 8 am ny time I run the updates and security scripts, this may be what you are seeing
 
I occasionally get a message "server too busy try again later". No big deal but it does happen at various times.
 
I also get the sever is too busy message, but I'm usually here around 6AM Eastern, so the security updates might be causing my problems.
