I don't usually have a problem. Sometimes a page will get stuck and Ihave to reload it but for the most part it works fine for me.
Lucky I guess.

I really didn't want to be the one to ask the question. I've got a connection that's about 15Mb/S, and these pages load SLOW, which is anything less than instantaneous.

it's because you have a slow, bogged down computer. mine works just fine. If these pages take you minutes too load you need a new or cleaned up computer. Maybe if you just dump your cookies, clear your history and defragment you hard drive things will work better for you. Also find whatever spyware you have it and delete it. Good luck

I am on cable internet and this site is a just a little bit slower than others. I have never had to wait more than a few seconds for any page here to load. I never clear cookies and surf all the time.

Uh, no. I assure mine is fairly fast, with a connection twice as fast as a fast cable connection, and it loads slow. It loads slow on my (other) cable connection, and the other three computers on the network. That's like saying if my car doesn't start, it's out of gas........all due respect sir, but just an instant answer for a problem with many possible answers.

To further implicate the servers, no other forum or web page I visit is this slow, but it's a good site so I'm not the complaining ,only verifying.

ORIGINAL: ILTim

I have a FAST internet connection. Often takes 3-5 minuets to load a page. MINUETS!!!! I'll open five windows and go for a beer. Finish the beer. Go for another beer... then the first page is loaded. It BLOWS. This is, by far, the most very slow site of any type I have ever been too. Activity or not, its F'ed up. Really F'ed up.
See!!!
