I thought when internet brands bought it they would maintain or improve.
Seems like it's slower, now. I wonder if the traffic has increased a lot??

Last night it was so slow I just clicked off and went to bed. This morning at 6:00 AM it is if fine -- Probably too many folks on for the servers available. Maybe it's time for the new owners to spend some of that extra advertising revenue on equipment.

Yeah.. This site is really slow for me sometimes too. Particularly in the evenings, especially Sunday.

Herniated servers. We need faster silicon. Internet Brands, are you listening?
