Hoyoymac Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 Has anyone else found the website and forum taking increasingly longer to load and navigate? The frequency of ads and pop ups seem to have caused things to get slow and buggy. Interrupting typing and causing inadvertent crashes for me. I’m finding it to be a less satisfying experience for navigating and reading the content and finding myself getting frustrated and moving on to other sources more often. It is a shame, but I’m getting increasingly disappointed with the user experience.

tony@CIC Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 I don't have any issues (using desktop/chrome/windows). You might want to check your internet speed - I generally just use my phone to find out my internet speed - go to fast.com - here's a screen shot. Also check your task manager - you might be running programs that are taxing the system.

NM01 Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 No issues on mobile with loading. Only issue is the shrinking of the window then going back to full size. tony@CIC 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

russtopherb Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 I've actually had the opposite experience on desktop - the site appears to be running faster which is nice. The mobile version, unfortunately, has become more and more unusable. And I tend to do my surfing more on mobile nowadays... tony@CIC 1 Quote In my Big Max hybrid bag: ST-X 10.5* Kai'li Blue R Flex ST-Z 15* Kai'li Blue R Flex ST-Z 4h Linq Blue R Flex Halo XL 5i-DW CBX 54* & 58* ER5 Tour S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoyoymac Posted November 16, 2021 Author Share Posted November 16, 2021 Good news! After installing AdBlock Pro for Safari on my IPad and IPhone the forum and website have been restored to blazing fast speeds again. All of my complaints have been resolved.

dru_ Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 This is an advertiser problem. A couple of the ads link to a server resource that is very slow, and blocking. If you are using an aggressive ad blocker, you won’t see the issue, but mags gets no revenue from the ads….. catch 22 tony@CIC 1 Quote Dru - Owner, President & Janitor, Druware Software Designs RH 13.1 Handicap in soggy Georgia WITB * 1W 10.5* @ PXG 0211 ( HZRDUS Smoke Black X-Stiff ) * 3W PXG 0211 ( HZRDUS Smoke Black X-Stiff ) * 5W 18* Tailor-made AeroBurner ( Stock Stiff ) * 7W Sub70 949x ( HZRDUS Smoke Black X-Stiff ) * 5i-PW @ PXG 0211 ( Gen 1 ) * 52 @ Hogan Equalizer * 56 @ Sub70 * 60 @ Hogan Equalizer * Carbon Ringo 1/4 * Vice Pro Plus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
