Complaints about the forum being slow

[jwirecom109]

There is a new update for the forum, I'll be installing that and see how that and if that changes anything.

Waiting on the host to get back to me on a couple things (don't worry it will take place over night)

[RangeBob]

Is it also isolated to those who use Rogers?????

No.
Someone else, and myself, are using ISP Cogeco, and noticing a speed drop for the past several weeks; although for me it got hugely better two days ago.

There was a rumor that it's only those in Southern Ontario.

I'm at the south end of Lake Simcoe. Rogers internet. This is how my current menu looks like when I hit "what's new".

So.... from what I can tell about the previous posts in this thread, this seems isolated to those of us in Ontario???

Is it also isolated to those who use Rogers?????

On Bell in Manitoba, and things were stupid slow a few days ago.
No funny formatting or anything, just sloooow.
It would be easy to blame the XP, but it's running fine now

[RangeBob]

Right now everything is working, and it's working really really fast.
Speed is best ever.

What's New: 1 second
Advanced Search: less than 1 second
Opening new threads: less than 1 second.
Making new posts with Quick Reply: 1 second
Editing existing posts: 1 second
Search for my posts: 3 seconds (that's fine)

What's new menu is correctly formatted.
Notifications Inbox menu is correctly formatted.

On Wightman in Stratford; It was very slow loading on all forums sometimes timing out, but much better now.

I think you were doing some server work a few weeks back. I assumed that it might have something to do with that.

[chuckbuster]

For those of you posting about slowness and corrupted/mis-formatted "What's new...." pages, please post your geographical location and your ISP please!

I'm using Eastlink in Ontario.

Edit: Issues seem to have disappeared now...everything is working normally.

I am back to normal this morning too (GOC-wise, anyway).

Well that didn't last.

"Reply with Quote" hangs. Waited a couple minutes and gave up.
"What's New on GOC" incorrectly formatted again.
Opening new threads many seconds
"Advanced Search" many seconds. "Search single content type" tab, several seconds

Well, today the slowness and the "What's new..." formating issues are back, plus a new wrinkle, the icons that allow you to format text and add pictures etc. are now gone! Sorry I cant post a picture because those icons are gone. So, not fine on Monday, fine on Tuesday but not fine today... Man Trump has a long reach

[Magi]

A small test, if you had problems before but all is well today, clear you browser's cache and see if everything's still okay

[RangeBob]

"Post Quick Reply" about 10 seconds.
"Edit Post" was quick, but SAVE hung (waited a couple minutes) and didn't save.

EDIT
"Edit Post"'s SAVE doesn't work with Microsoft Edge,
but it works just fine with Firefox.

While I thank people for letting us know about slow forum pages, the pile on of complaints without any helpful information isn't needed.

If you are having issues with the forum, we need more data then "it's Slow", at that point your just complaining.

So if something is slow, note what page it was that loaded slow, what browser your using and version, check your internet speed via http://www.speedtest.net/, what time, ect.

After clearing my browser history and changing the URL to the https version, Firefox is secure and fast with Chrome just a bit slower. Mind you Chrome seems slower on my computer for everything.

I have a new one, the "Canadian Forces Member" icon on people's names is a broken image.

This helped my scrambled formatting on mobile but wont retain the "remember me" function. Have to log in every visit.
