    -This forum is SLOW-

    I don't know if you know this already.

    I use a high-speed broadband cable and it takes me a good while to get around this site. The pages load VERY slowly.

    Perhaps your current bandwidth can't handle the traffic of this site....?

    WRONG. I'm on a company network now that uses fiber optic t3 for up and satellite for down. My bandwidth right now is about 1 gig per second, and this page has no problem loading for me. Its YOUR bandwidth/computer bro, not the site!

    We pay for more bandwith than we will ever use. I think what may be happeing is that your computer may be reloading the new Banner we have up. It is making my old computer do the same thing.

    The reason why I say this is because on other sites/forums, the pages load super-fast - and when I came to this site, it was the exact opposite.

    I think the problem is that you use rusty needles. Site is fine, dont be so presumptuous.

    If your say that I'm being presumptuous, then why do you presume that I presume that I am presuming that everybody on this site is presuming this site is slow? So why do you presume that I am being presumptuous?

    your computer won't keep reloading the banner on every page...once it's loaded it's there.
