Yes man, this site is rather slow. But it could be all the members coming in to have a look.

It's too slow for my computer. And i'm using hi-speed cable! It took me 5 minutes just to get onto this site. It used to take me 5 seconds or less.I guess i won't be on this site anymore unless it gets quicker. For the rest of you who can get on it quick, enjoy.

i think with all these new functions, if it even increases server time by 1 or 2 seconds per hit, then if it gets a hundred hits per second, then you can imagine how slow it gets...
so even a 10% increase in loading time per user would affect the server drastically..
