We made some changes later yesterday and hope you are experiencing faster loading of the iboats forums pages...especially the main forums front page. We need to hear from you (particularly those on dial up) if you are experiencing a faster loading forums front page. Thanks!!!

I'm not on dial up. The speed doesn't seem any faster to me.

Sorry,

Re: Are the iboats forums faster today?

I guess I should have also asked how long it is taking now for all of you. Please repost with how many seconds it takes for the front page of the boards to load now. We are expecting the change we made to most help those on slower connections and with fairly newer browsers (newer than 4 years old). Thanks and have a great weekend!!!

One thing I noticed, the drop down box for the different forums is ...S...L...O...W.

Whether that is my 'puter or your software, who knows... also when I high-lite to cut my post and run it through a spell-checker, it takes 20 or 30 secs. to cut... again, my 'puter or yours.

You guys are doing a great job, the forum is much faster and you should give yourselves and the code guys a pat on the back.... and 3 weeks paid vacation d:)
