anagain Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 You're not using IE are you? Saying that, it does happen to me on occaison with Firefox. I just reload or go back and try again. It usually sorts itself out then. I don't know why it does it. Also pictures. Are you trying to load a page with pictures when it happens? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 firefox mate , when the page takes ages to load its all blue like its highlighted then loads fully , this can be on any topic even in the general disscussion Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
anagain Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 I suppose you could check the usual things such as whether firefox is up to date or whether you have any add ons interfering. You're not running a tool bar such as yahoo or something are you? Those things are evil. I'm no expert, it's just some of the things I'd check or have heard might cause a problem. To be honest if it was happening to me and it was just these forums then I'd forget about it. Just try reloading the page when it starts to stall and see if that helps. If you really are getting annoyed with it possibly reinstall Firefox or try these forums on a different browser...even IE if push comes to shove.

slipknot67 Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 I get this with the forums from time to time, deleting my internet history usually sorts it out although that does mean having to log in manually once after the history is deleted.

mintchip Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 its just you. So apparently not then.... Maybe unhelpful replies like that are filling up the forum cache and causing the slowness. Tut. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

crouchaldinho Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 It's this crap forum skin. It has been slow ever since the update. All of the Twitter and social networking seems to be part of the problem. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
