Is the forum running slow for you??????????

[AB]

Have any members noticed the forum taking a while to load some times?

In particular, members who are not forum sponsors so members who see the advertisments???

When it loads and it starts to hang I have noticed it hangs on trying to load ad.amgdgt.com.....You can see this in the bottom left hand corner of the screen if you are running Chrome...Not sure on Explorer or Firefox.

This is an ad management program from the company who runs some of the ads on here. Can anyone please confirm if it happens to you as well???

Also, how are the forum sponsors finding the speed as they do not see ads. Is it acceptable speed too?

Even if you are a new member, I would really appreciate your feedback on this please???

I'm happy to remove this to ensure everyone is satisfied with using the forum!!!

Seems pretty good here mate, no complaints. The "what's new" can take a while to load up sometimes but has been pretty good of late

I think the Whats New can hang because we are all impatient buggers and probably have hundreds of people trying to run that one call to action every minute of the day....You dont see adds so your happy with the speed when you browse posts, etc???

All good here, AB.

And since we are chatting, thanks for all you do!

[AB]

Thanks guys....Cheers for the comment too mate. I'm pretty sure it is the company who run the adds on here. The ad program takes 10 seconds to load sometimes and I dont want members getting peed with that. I might have to remove it unfortunately.

I really need non forum sponsors to reply...I noticed it hanging today and Growler is having problems now. He sees the adds being a moderator.

I just logged out and played around as a guest and it is a bit slower but not concerning slow. About 4-5 secs to load the forum. Similar when jumping into different sections

seems pretty normal to me ab

Just removed the top and bottom adds and it seems to run lightning fast...Just waiting on Growler to confirm via PM.
