Yep, slow here too. Every time I load a thread with pictures in everything starts to jump around as the pictures are loading too. It's doing my head in!

I for one and I am sure i am not the only one who is Fu@king sick of this website. It takes far to long to load a page, double posts all over the place, fails to display a page. Second the ad thing if using google chrome. Getting soo sick of this, the people on here are spot on, well the majority are anyway been on here for years and have met some really nice people but this level of service is sh1te since Internet brands have taken over it has got progressivly worse and worse, they IMO are killin this site, you even have to pay a full membership now to be able to advertise your parts. To me hey are bleeding the website dry and it's about time the did something about it as they are forcing people to have to pay full memebership to use the website fully and not giving the support or service it needs.

Internet brands sort this **** out before you kill it off and have no members let alone any members willing to pay for it, the end result will be worthless

Rant over

TBH, it's been much the same since early this year. IB, who own the site, are based in the USA, and either can't fix it, or can't be arsed to get over here, see what's wrong and fix it.

And why should they? They have HUGE advertising revenue, and most people on here have already paid them............

They don't need to get over here to fix it as it is over there I believe.

You miss the point: the SERVERS abd TECH GUYS are over there. The PROBLEMS are over here, as is 99% of the traffic, but THEY say, "Oh, we can't replicate it, give us more time."
FFS: You've had FOUR months, get someone over here, look at the problems WE have, and SORT IT, please, IB
