anyone else notice that, or is it just my computer... cuz before i could jump around from page to page like in a second or two, but now it takes like a good 10 seconds in between pages for loading... :shrug: i don't know, just tryin to get the most bang for my buck when i find time to spend here

Funny, Im have the opposite experience. The old ubb took ages (on cable)...the new one is instant.

Same here. I'm on a highspeed broadband connection so figured it's either the mx-3.com server or some gateway between me and the server that's gotten slow as a dawg.

I have a 5mbps cable connection as well. It worked fine for a few days since the new ubb came up, but yesterday all of a sudden it would say "page not found" it was like that for a few hours, then it started this slow loading thing. :(

Sorry for the downtime yeaterday folks.

I was upgrading the PHP backend on the server and there were a few issues to deal with.

I myself have also noticed it is a bit slower now. I don't have time to look into it tongiht, being New Years Eve and all, but will try to looking into it in the next few days.

Hope everyone has a safe and exciting New Years Eve!! Welcome in 2005 with a blast.

Don't Drink and Drive!!

ive noticed a lil slowness too on dsl. but it might have to do with the change from wired network to wireless.

It's the forum. Anyone who says it's loading faster than the old one is full of BS. I have Rogers Internet EXTREME (which is wayyy fast), and this forum is SLOW!!

Sometimes it's so slow, my browser gives up trying to load it. And I've got 4MPS service. It's like the server is being run on a Commodore 64 with a 2400 baud modem. :lol:
