I think I am, but my service is slow anyway.
What happens a lot now is "Error. No response "
Usually if I go back and start over RF comes back.

It is getting difficult to post anymore. The lag is so long I literally have to move the screen around to get the words I typed to just show in the reply box. It then goes smooth for a bit and locks up again. My pc is low end too. Can't afford a better one yet untiI get my medical bills paid up. Even so, this really blows. ÷0(

For what it is worth, certain browsers for me lag on different sites. Firefox is the biggest offender. Also be sure to clear you cache and cookies from time to time. Finally, disabling any memory sucking add-ons will also help improve performance.

The five stages of a T-Mobile service call:
1) It's your phone. Shut it off and start again.
2) I'm sorry you feel that way.
3) That isn't how the system works. That can't happen.
4) Do you have another phone number? I'll call you back after I check a few things.
5) No, I can't help with the problem you called about. Is there anything I can help you with?

I am having constant problems with "Firefox is not responding" and freezing up all the time. I close the program and "Window is checking for a solution" but they never seem to find one. Getting very sick of it. Never had problems with Firefox until recently.

I browse the site with all ads enabled and have experienced no issues.
I guess it all depends on the machine.

Mines an old one (Laptop) with Windows 7. My smart phone has even worse performance and it's a G Vista LG model.

I have varying issues with all ad sponsored sites. Not just this one. I had no major problems or issues here until the recent ad expansion. Thought the feedback could be useful.

Perfect compromise. I have white listed the site, I would encourage others who haven't yet taken the plunge to do the same. :)
It just takes up space on my screen as I don't check out the ads or visit them. I like my internet experience ad-free.

Is it with this site, only? Or is it across the board? I used to have those problems with firefox all the time, I prefer Chrome.

Since I am on this site just about every day, and it freezes on a daily basis, it's hard to tell what the cause is. It only started a couple of months ago, so I am wondering if an update threw something out of whack?

I am grateful for the "save draft" facility on this site as it freezes without warning and I would lose lengthy posts that have taken me hours to type. When I shut it down, and it says "Windows is looking for a solution to this problem".....it never does. I am not very tech savvy so things like this are just annoying because there is no explanation for them or easy fix unless you know what you're doing.
I have Googled the problem but don't know how to implement the solution. :(

For me (and I don't see ads on this site), I use google, but there are other sites that frequently lock up (especially newspaper sites, it seems) that run lots of flash player stuff, or small videos on the side.
