Is it just me...slow GM? 

Post#1 » by magickingdom » Sun Aug 24, 2008 11:41 pm

Is it just me or has RealGM gotten real slow? Every page now seems to load way to slow. Did it happen when they added all the new graphics or what? All I know is I get tired of waiting and just leave. And that is not something I really want to do. I am on high speed from Bright House so I know it is not my speed. Any of you having this problem?

i'm not having any problems. If you're using firefox get ad-block plus. It helps with loading speeds here tremendously.

Actually since we moved to the new style I hadnt really set up anything and the site has been running a little slow for me.

I've just re-done my Ad Block Plus - basically blocking everything, but making sure that the scripts are enabled so I dont get a horrible mess at the top. Runs 100% smoother and quicker.

lol.....I thought this was going to be another thread about Otis sitting on his hands since we hadn't heard of any rumors or signings of another PG/PF.

and no I haven't had any issues with the site being slow

I've hacked my hosts file to redirect some advertising domains to 127.0.0.1 so it's (and other sites) working fine for me :D

Yeah, this site is mega-slow. There hasn't been anything to talk about for months.

I think it's because that wiretap headlines takes a long time to load. As well as the advertisements. That's what seems to slow it down for me.
