Having real problems with lag

[Ses 0]

What is going on with this site? I've been here for YEARS... since before my surgery...

Technally, it is lagging like anything. I have to open up notepad, an external typing program, to just WRITE. I can't write anything in the forum now, it lags so bad, 1 letter per 10 seconds bad. It's slow, Jerky, incredibly hard for the computer to load again and again...

I am in AUSTRALIA. Why am I being shown all these American adds? There aren't just a few adds... I am counting 29 alone at the moment! I bet these are what is screwing with my use of the site! ALl these adds re-download everytime I change pages! Holy cow...

I really don't want to leave after all these years here, but I'm starting to wonder if I have much choice anymore. (At least it keeps reminding me why I treasure our public healthcare system!)

It's funny but before the adds loaded, it was easy to type in this new thread creation... now I have to go back to notepad.

Please PM me your IP address. You can find it by going to What Is My IP Address - Shows Your IP Address . I haven't received any complaints from members similar to yours regarding latency etc. I'll investigate and we'll try to get to the bottom of this.

We're in midst of planning an entirely new design and layout for LBT. It should take care of the other issues you've mentioned above.
