Anyone having slow page loading? I have to keep hitting reload it's really slow.
I checked my computer and it only seems to be here that it does this.

Yes, I'm glad I'm not alone. Usually the page loads normally, but every so often it won't load at all and I get a message from Fire Fox stating that the server is taking too long to respond. I go back to the original page and try again and it will usually load. Sometimes it still won't load. This has only been the past week or so.

are you using IE 7.0?

I have it loaded on a computer here at work (and use sometimes to check out TCS). However I noticed that the first 10 minutes after opening IE 7, its just slow in general. I think there are a bunch of system files that are still loading during this time.

Once I've had it open for 10-15 minutes its fine after that.

Its not like that on the other forums I go on
The moderators on this wonderful site have suggested this is due to "spamming" of ultra short messages for the sole purpose of upping their counts. I believe them and I also believe that this will be worked out in the future. Is it just coincidence this has became worse since the point system was installed?

Probably not. I've noticed a lot more activity since the system was introduced. Since that was one of the purposes of introducing it, I can't complain, and also think it will taper off once the novelty wears off, and people run out of room for their gifts and ribbons.

I am having that same problem, I just wrote to Anne about it. Sometimes the screen just goes white and I can't answer to replies. I finally found out I am not the only one and no I do not have this problem elsewhere. For me, this just started about 3 days ago, I hope this can be corrected.
