Default Why is SN so ruddy slow????

Is anyone else having problems with SN??

Today, I've tried a number of times to get into SN only to find it's gone slower than an automatic 900cc Mini with flat tyres!

This has been getting worse over the last week or so, so it's not just today that's the problem - it's just that today is SO SLOW I'm getting Pi**ed off with it all....

To do this new thread - It took 8 seconds for Internet Explorer to log into Scoobynet, then ANOTHER 13 seconds for the page to display!

Going onto other web sites it's practically instantanious with no delays at all - then when I go back into SN and I might as well put the kettle on and wait for it to boil!

If the other web sites I use are all loading and working fine with no delays at all - What the ruddy hell is going on with SN??

Just previewing this post before submiting it took 17 seconds to redisplay the thing.......

Rant over........

Surely I can't be the only one having problems..........

I quite often find it slower than a slow thing in here. ...

Usually I just open snet in 2 tabs so I've got something to read whilst the other page is loading.

SNet needs a remap after all its recent mods. Is SNet hosting the 'my scooby' photos it pulls off your PC ?

I thought it was my laptop, but MotorMeet is nice and quick, as well as Fleabay, also the Met office website is notoriously slow (I have to keep track of the local weather forecast as I work for Calor gas and basically, the colder the weather, the busier it is), but now not as slow as S/Net

Thank gawd it's not just me who is having these problems.....

Hopefully someone at SN will give a response (but not holding my breath over it) and get it back up to speed soon, 'cos as it is at the moment, it's beginning to be almost unusable.....

this is the reason its so so slow peeps
the server cant keep up
they need to up the bandwitch to max
or stop the posting silly stuff...

maybe stick to hosting your own stuff like via photobucket,
or using thumbs to view
