I'm on several other forums at different sites and every page loads as fast as I can hit the link. Actually my machine runs really fast everywhere but here. Here it takes forever. Many pages wont load at all without several tries. I'm told it's my browser but why would it only be a problem here. It's like there is a boat load of information having to load with every page. I have to try several times to get a post I wish to make, work. Any thoughts? __________________ Larry   04-20-2009, 01:23 AM   #2 (permalink) rlm's cents Numismatist     Join Date: Feb 2007 Location: Oklahoma Posts: 5,419 My Mood: Not having any problems here. Not sure if it will help you any, but when you load many pages ("new posts", "today's posts", and I assume most searches) there is a line just above the blue line (Thread / Thread Starter Last Post Replies Views Forum) that gives you the time it took to search. Mine usually take .02 - .06 sec. at least for the typical page. If yours are similar, than the problem is at your computer. __________________ The monkeys stand for honesty, Giraffes are insincere, And the elephants are kindly but They're dumb.

I will be in the middle of browsing cointalk and then it will just cut out when I go to change the page. All other sites work during that time, but cointalk is out for the count. __________________ Shawn Canadian Small cents : 108/124 87% complete Canadian Large cents: 44/56 78% complete Canadian Small cents MS: 64/124 51.7% complete W.I.N.S# 743 ENS Club Member   04-20-2009, 02:00 AM   #4 (permalink) TheNoost huldufolk     Join Date: May 2008 Location: Michigan Posts: 4,276 My Mood: I think I experience what LD is. I Open 3 or 4 pages (at least) at a time before the first one is actually up. It some kind of lag or something. Not any faster loading one page and didn't happen before the new style. Not experienced elsewhere. I just load 3 or 4 pages at once to get around the wait. __________________   04-20-2009, 02:07 AM   #5 (permalink) NPCoin Juxtaposed Oxymora     Join Date: May 2006 Location: Powell, WY Posts: 462 My Mood: I have had problems with the pages loading once in a while. I have found it is usually the offsite adverts, specifically the ones from googlesyndicate.com, and once with the new Amazon.com sidebar ad. The only real problem I am having at the moment is I am not able to edit any of my posts! __________________ Numismatics is a never ending learning process.

It seems to happen every now and again but I just ignore it. __________________ 1914-D Lincoln Cent: A Coin With a Story The Truth About "O" Mint Morgan Dollars   04-20-2009, 06:21 AM   #8 (permalink) Victor Coin Collector     Join Date: Apr 2006 Location: Connecticut Posts: 1,229 very slow Coin Talk has always been very slow. But now it seems to be extra slow loading. I suspect it's the ads which I never look at anyway. Other forums load super fast so it's just here on Coin Talk that lags. I'll be damned if I will buy anthing from any of the vendors that cause a delay.   04-20-2009, 08:05 AM   #9 (permalink) ziggy9 Coin Collector     Join Date: Mar 2007 Location: Pats country!

Its not the banners, it seems that they are static set so they are just viewed as pictures on the pages. Why its just CT I dont know but I have found that it helps to clear out before I come here. I noticed it more after the little my mood things appeared. __________________ WINS, ANA, MSNS, HVNS "Never Argue with an Idiot.

Think about it. CT does have outage and database issues from time to time but most if not all of you are asleep at the time. I am not aware of any real slowdown though __________________ http://kidromeoisathief.webs.com/   04-20-2009, 01:31 PM   #13 (permalink) De Orc P & R COMMISSAR     Join Date: Oct 2005 Location: London.

The tough part is figuring out where the problem is. Thought others might be having the same problem. Looks like only a few. Just looking for fresh ideas to get past this. I did find a workaround that helps some. Once the top of the page loads I can hit the back button and then the forward. Sometimes this will make the entire page snap in. Not a cure but it helps. Thanks all. __________________ Larry   Page 1 of 2 1 2 > Bookmarks Digg del.icio.us StumbleUpon Google Would you like to support CoinTalk? Coin Talk Code of Honor 1.
