Hi Guys,
In responce to your reviews on site performance recently we are interested to do some further research from your keyboards as to how you think work is progressing on streamlining teh site code and improving its speed, so if you can please tell me how things feel today?

Just click one answer to the multiple choice question above so we can evaluate the move and upgrade with real world results from the end users.

23 views, 9 clicks. Is it really that hard to make the extra click?

I've had to vote unacceptable because it's worse than the last test. However it's still acceptable.

I've been away for some time and now find that whilst the pages seem to load acceptably OK, I find it very disconcerting and annoying whilst the page jumps around to accommodate the adverts.

Is it not possible to create fixed slots for the ads to load into?

Hi Guys,
Thanks for your feedback, I Have made a change to the way information is sent from the site to try and help those users whom had buttons missing. The problem is it seems to have caused a bigger than expected slowdown. Will look into it further soon.

Very poor speed - approx 20 seconds to load a page . My time on Scoobynet is getting less and less if I'm honest. Adverts that I'm not interested in slow load up speed . Sorry to say this but other forums are getting my time and input. It could be goodbye Scoobynet for me
