I'm serious.
Something needs to be done. Sorry, don't want to upset anyone.

I can't post a post...then post one after it. I get the 0second BS.


I can't wait aaaallll day for pages to load.

I can't use it on my iPhone.



I can't send a PM w/o it telling me that I have a PM.

I can't make a decent post w/o crap in the wayyyy...


Helloooooo....

We don't get new users/registrations... and we are about to start losing old users...

Interesting when I visit the site in Chrome on Windows it exhibits none of those issues as when I visit it on a Mac. smile

Your Jack Nichelson and we can handle the truth.

Could it be because the forum has been sliced and diced to 76 different sub forums? The slow downs I see are all from trying to switch from one forum to another.

I don't want to upset anyone either but the slicing and dicing has killed a potentially OK forum. You have five moderators switching threads to the "right" forum and you are killing it all. Do these moderators actually have a life outside AppleCentral land?

KISS is something one should always start with and branch out to complexity. You f up. Instead of someone visiting and seeing a multi-forum vibrant forum you diluted it to dishwater.

Question: when did you acquire a new forum poster who has posted more than twice? Please do not count jerry who only speaks "douchebag".

I do most of my email reading, Huff Post, CNN, MSNBC, weather, TCM, IMdb, Google, TV Guide, ALL on my iPhone. Every now and then I go sit at my iMac and try and catch up on the Forums.

Reading the forums on the iPhone is impossible!! I thought I'd just read the Lounge stuff each day, but it's too slow to bother.

I have finally been weened from my passionate attachment to the forums though. I get more yard work and reading done now wink.

Guys,

Are you seriously seeing some significant difference that's causing all these comments? I'm not seeing it, and not sure what to do about it as a result.

Neil

Neil

I get the same things as David, not as frequent. Maybe 3 times a week.
