I visit this site all the time, and see people complaining about it being slow all the time. But it loads right up for me, every time. Granted I'm on DSL, but I've heard others with DSL or cable say that it was slow for them too. Why is it never slow for me?
I'm on Concast, this site has gotten really slooooow!
Other sites loading / launching appear fine on speed.

I have about the fastest connection possible. IT IS SUPER SLOW!!! I bet I stared at the blank page for a minimum of 30 seconds. This is the only site I have ever had any issues with.
It seems like it has gotten alot slower in the last few days compared to normal.

The speed of this site comes and goes, one day it has no problems and then the next you can drink a beer while it loads. The funny thing about it is that the administrators seam to not to want to do anything about it and blame it on our computers, and everyone thought that it was bad under Jason.

It all depends on the browser. I just opened it with IE, and I could have went and got a haircut waiting for it to load. It's like an AD hell here for some reason. (They really effed this site up.) I just killed IE and restarted with Firefox which has the NoScript plugin and FasterFox plugin, and the page loaded in 4.485 seconds with only 2 ads. The autoforums one at the bottom and the powerstrokeshop banner at the top. This puter is running XPpro SP2 and it's on DSL, so nothing special there.
