[quote=NucleusG4] 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?
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 guess you haven't ever been to ARS Technica? http://arstechnica.com/civis/ It's Ars' forum...both Mac & PC are discussed there. It has 23 subforums/subfora, however you want to call it. The site moves fast and they have a LOT more moderators. Yet...it seems to be a busy site!
Yeah, I think we should roll the Mod Hacks/NOW forums sections into others since they are not being used.
Yes, we do have a life outside of here. There are 4 of us, and really, not all of us are active.
A new user who posts comments that are only personal attacks on a fellow forum member? How would you like to treat him?

I have never saw such a ill informed bigot who hates the US as you. Why don't you go to Afghanistan and live there for a while and see how you like life there.You would not survive 1 day without bringing your sorry pathetic body back to your merry old england.

You are right. I am sick and tired of keymaker and his bigotry against the USA.He is a narrow minded man.J
I don't know where he learned how to speak douchebag but he speaks it 100% of the time. Needs a little more training though. He misspelled schmuck.
If I was moderator I would do my job and tell him he needs to add some content to his posts if all he is going to do is hurl slurs at a forum member. The target of the ranting is likely amused at these things but they break up perfectly good threads.
jerry's opinion of keymaker isn't any different from a lot of other peeps. We all have our own ways of expressing ourselves. You for instance. Condescending and cruel.
You cherry picked his posts. He's posted many more, in the Box, the Lounge and in the different Mac Forums. In fact, his first post was over in one of the Help forums.
Honestly, the tone of everything you've posted since your return from "I'm outta here" drama-rama has just been . . . gosh. Now that I think about it. Typical.

And maybe the other peeps should learn how to not post this kind of 100% douchebag too. John asked me why I was so mean and I told him. When I am condescending and cruel at least I have a point to make. Speaking in pure douchebag is just that, acting like a douchebag.
And I did not cherry pick. I selected his last posts and they were complete. I did not cut out any actual content. If you want to cheerlead this type of posting you're acting like a douchbag too.

Real classy, Paul. But, hey, to you I'm just another peon at the base of the pedestal you keep yourself on.
At least I'm in good company. Lonely up there?
O.D.G.

Could it be an OS issue? As NucleusG4 posted I am getting the exact same issue like the pics he posted. I am using Tiger the last version & the latest version of Firefox on a Mac & those ad blockages started appearing like that a few days ago.
Makes it very difficult to read the forums & to post.

I have not had the visual problems in 10.5 just only the slowness. However, the slowness has improved some but still seems to be sluggish compared to other sites.
Nana, it's not an OS issue. I have had that problem with the ads overlapping for awhile now. I forgot what Neil said was the problem, but it's not something they can address apparently.
