Yup... super slow here as well.

Rumor has it this new feature was implemented to address several issues:

1-Cuts back on the large number of challenge submissions.
2-Reduces abusive comments on challenge entries.
3-Decreases DQ requests.
4-Eliminates forum flame wars.

lol, same here at work the site is so so so slow. All other website load right away.

Yeah, same here. I lost 2 long posts (do I ever make any other kind?) in the wash and was VERY annoyed.

If you are posting to the threads, Please use CTRL-A to select ALL the text in the box and CTRL-C to copy it into your windows (or whatever) clipboard.

If the page fails loading, and you reload or do a back, your post will have been lost in the ether.

If you do that, then you just need to do a CTRL-V to put it back painlessly.

I forgot the second time and had to rewrite it.. Stupid me.

Yup, hit a roadblock on the information super-highway.

Been getting those as well.

The cute little red "x" adds nice color to the composition but it is really hard to tell if the submission meets the challenge or not... so I've just been giving all of them 1s. ;)

This got linked on FARK, and apparently we were set up to handle such a load:



We're tweaking things now to find an optimal setting.
03/22/2006 11:08:43 AM · #19

Ask Strikeslip about it ... ;)
