I have found that when I am logged in and I click on a thead, it can take up to 5 minutes to load the thread.

Same when I click reply to someone....up to 5 minutes before I get the screen to type my reply. Like this reply, took almost 5 minutes to come up. Then once I finish typing and click SUBMIT, it can take another 5 minutes to post.

If I am not logged in, I can get to any thread with normal speed (can't post of course) Been going on for 2 or 3 days now. That's why I haven't been here posting the last few days

Anyone else experiencing this? If not, administrators--you guys have any ideas?

This used to happen to me when I used Internet explorer..I switched to another browser (safari for MAC) and can get in easily!!! don't know what the problem was....but Safari has no problems reading the site.

Gamer03 · 08-14-2004, 1:48 AM

I also noticed that Shizam.

But our internet was acting slow a couple of days ago....the problem isn't happening right now.

larry · 08-14-2004, 2:06 AM

I use Internet Explorer and yes this site can be slow sometimes. But not nearly as slow as you described Shizam.

Gamer03 · 08-14-2004, 2:14 AM

Hey larry, you finally changed your caption underneath your username!

It's better now.

I had the same issues...

JFB · 08-14-2004, 11:03 AM

I have noticed this problem on an older laptop running Win 98 and IE 6. Also only in the past 3 - days. It is annoying. We'll see if we can track down the problem.

Since it only happens when you are logged in, give this a try...log out, delete your cookies and then log back in.

This seems to be happening to various people, including me. There is another thread from ronnieg56 on the same topic.

I'm using Windows XP and have tried all the suggested fixes. I even used the IE browser on my Apple Powerbook and had the same problem! My solution has been to use AOL's browser (no problems). Its odd that I don't have problems w/ the same IE browsers on HoFO since I think WA and HoFo use the same software?

COtech · 08-14-2004, 12:00 PM

I've noticed this on my company's corporate network; computers are running XP and IE6. I was willing to blame it on the IT admins, but I see now that I am not alone.

COtech

Tony E! · 08-14-2004, 1:39 PM

this happens to me also but strangely only happens when i try to go into certain forums or when i reply to a PM, i try deleting my cookies but it still doesn't help.....

larry · 08-14-2004, 2:47 PM

I also found out that this site and a few others aren't friendly to the Earthlink dial-up speed booster program I installed a while back. I ended up having to delete the program.

COtech

Yep....at work we run windows 2000, so it is with that as well.

Joe...I usually delete my cookies frequently, so that hasn't helped. Thanks for looking into it

This works for me, but I have to make sure I uncheck the "Remember Me" box. As soon as I let it use a cookie, the problem comes back.

MOTOhooligan · 08-16-2004, 8:32 PM

I'm having the same issues now but I wasn't before. I use Windows 2000 with IE browser.

Gamer03 · 08-17-2004, 4:56 PM

I don't know if this has been said before but...it sounds to me like certain version's of Windows and IE screw up the load times....which in turn makes the process of surfing WA difficult...but that is just my opinion so I don't know I am right or not.

Tony E! · 09-16-2004, 3:36 AM

Getting the old delay again.......

AnthroMatt · 09-16-2004, 8:57 AM

This thread just goes to prove no one should be using IE!

ComicalMoodyDan · 09-16-2004, 9:03 AM

I had problems with this web site being slow also. I switched internet browsers and now this site works just fine for me. I'm using Mozilla Firefox. It's a great browser and works great for this website. I like it so much that I've even now set it as my default web browser. I highly recommend you guys give this browser a try!

Mozilla Firefox

Gamer03 · 09-16-2004, 10:29 AM

It's slow for me again too.

And I'm connected wirelessly at 11 Mbps at my library in my school.

I agree but I haven't had the slow loading problems in a few weeks.

Gamer03 · 09-16-2004, 6:52 PM

I also haven't had the "slow" load problem in a few weeks.

Tony E! · 09-16-2004, 11:40 PM

Well i went ahead and logged off and deleted my cookies and that seem to help...we'll see for how long...

Scrumhalf · 09-17-2004, 3:17 AM

Agreed... Mozilla Firefox is an awesome browser... that's what I use exclusively now for non-work stuff. Unfortunately, the lame-o's at work appear to have written a bunch of scripts using some custom Microsoft stuff that doesn't display on any non-ie browser, so I am stuck with IE for work stuff.
