Default Anyone else having very slow loading on this site?

I don't know why, but every time I open up this site it takes a very long time to move between posts. Anyone else experiencing this issue? This is the only site I seem to have this issue with.

No. Been here off and on all day. Must be something on your end.

HELP forum might help if you don't find it.

They have so much garbage adds on every page and sidelines I think it slows things down on some computers.

I just got on for the first time tonight, but it loaded the couple of pages I've looked at so far just fine.

Those ads allow forum members to have a forum without having to pay to be members if they don't want to.

Just open up a "private Browsing" page, then launch the forum. It will be much faster. MS Edge, Firefox, Chrome, etc, all have private browsing options.

What version of MS are you running, if I can assume that's what you surf with?

If you don't sign in, the site is painful.
With low bandwidth the site is slow.

Now there's a revelation I never thought of. I wonder where they would be if they didn't have all the contributions of members experience and knowledge.

Seems a two way street is more reasonable considering you have to disable and ad to see a whole picture or continue without something else popping. JMO

You may have something on your computer or you're logging in as Guest. It is not normal for the ads to cover the content nor is it normal to have pop-ups. Both of which are things IB generally does not allow.
