Default Is This Site Slow

Is anyone one else having problems opening pics on this site or changing subjects. It seems to take for ever and some pics never open. I don't have this problem on other sites, just here?? Anyone else having problems??

Painfully.

I usually don't look at photos anymore unless they're embedded in the text itself.

When it loads it is OK for me. Sometimes on launch it will stall though.

Yes Sir,

Have also seen the site Not Load At All on two different days/Nights in the past couple weeks.
I could hit other sites no problem.

Love the Site!
Specially the Tanks Part...

I have the same problems with the loading speed on this site...


If this site was a tank, It would be a H.L.:It's nowhere ready to run, often broken and needs upgrades; but We love it and keep coming back for more...

Not only slow, but RCU crashed at least two times that I'm aware of in the past three weeks. But hey, look at the pretty and larger than necessary banner on top of each page now, along with the new font type! Isn't that worth suffering through the crashes and constant excessive refresh times? Some would call that progress. Kind of like the Affordable Health Care Act that won't be affordable to anyone next year when the premiums more than double as well as the "deductable."

Keep in mind that we (tanks? Those are RC?) are probably less than a full percentage point of the traffic on this site, so I'd imagine the volume is tremendous. Couple that with the fact that it is free, none of us are asked to lift a finger to do anything to help, I won't complain about ads.

It's the best place available for us to get our fix, slowness is the only price we pay.
