    AR site speed

    Is it just me? I've noticed in the past few days the site takes forever to load. Anyone else having this problem?

    Just what I didn't want to hear. lol Ok, I will see what I can do everyone. We have had a surge in traffic on all of our websites lately, which might be slowing us down, plus that arcade is a major bandwidth hog. I bet it's the arcade that is slowing things down honestly.

    I come on Ar virtually everyday and I haven't noticed any speed delays. I think some of you really need to check your pc's or internet connections. For me, i'm on cable, and AR is fast as hell. Not sure if it is your connection or what not.

    yes, I have noticed the loading time when entering the forums to be longer as well as the time it takes after you hit submit post to when you return to the forum taking longer...

    Well even an OC3 on a Pentium I 75MHZ is gonna be slow Just kidding, I'm guessing your PC is pretty good too

    I really don't know, it's weird, I haven't experienced any slowness at least for the past month. I guess i'm just lucky!

    If it's the arcade slowing things down can you run it from a different server or just get rid of it?

    Maybe have the arcade available on a set schedule? For example when I'm not on AR.

    If the arcade is what's slowing things down Jason just get rid of it...

    Take a poll if that's the problem, but personally I'll never use it...
