I'm not in here as often now as I used to be. And whatever time I can spend here is important, as I love to chat boxing with my fellow "saddo'ers". But lately, for whatever reason, the site seems awful sluggish. I've had to give up on several occasions without being able to post anything. It's gotta be the site, 'cause all the other sites are fast and responsive. Any technical problems y'all know of?
It might sound a bit stupid, but with a lot of people recently getting broadband or using a lot of bandwith after getting new PC's or Xbox Live etc. I think the ISP's are inundated with new traffic. Only a guess but it may be an explanation.
Well, there's a bit of spyware and pop-ups on the site now, which really sux. If you are using a PC rather than a Mac, it becomes a bit more problematic. However, you encounter these types of issues on most sites.Quote:

Doesn't sound stupid at all. There's gotta be a reason, and that's as feasible as any. Also, I sometimes think that when there's a lot of members and guests online, that it might get sluggish... but who really knows. All I know is that the other sites I visit are working OK, so it has to be something with the site itself.Quote:

What type of computer do you have? If it's a PC, do you use adware/spyware removal programs? If you do and you run them regularly, you should download hijackthis and post a log report from your clipboard after it examines your drive. I could tell you what to delete and what to keep. However, it may be best to paste the results in a P.M. and send it along to me. It's not a very complicated procedure to get you back to top speed again. You just have to do an abundance of maintenance when it comes to a PC.Quote:

I think it's just your computer. Delete some of that porn you got saved on it and it'll free up some memory. Bring you back up to decent speed.Quote:

Tough choice I'm getting there, V.D.
(Interesting initials, by the way).
Naw, just kidding V.D. I gave up on boxing a long time ago.
(Just another joke, V.D.)
Seriously, though... I still don't think it's my computer. For instance, right now it's working just fine, and I know being Sunday morning and all, it's probably just a slow time on the site. Oh well, I'll just keep plugging along.
I've noticed the same on occasion....but for the most part it's not that bad....Quote:

I brought this to Saddo's attention the moment it happened and he jumped on the situation immediately.
Hope this helps ! O0
