WHY does my computer HATE this site ???

Anyone else having the same issues ?? The page is super slow to load IF IT LOADS. I lost the use of the emoji's (unless I hit the A/A sq up top) and then they are code to me but show up fine in the post. BUT THE BIGGEST ISSUE IS my keyboard all but quits, skips letters & words, freezes up. As I type this out is about the best it's been for a week or so BUT it's driving me nuts. This is the ONLY site I'm having any issues & my internet speed is in the high teens, slowest test I've ever had was 14MBPS.

its the number of ads they have on the site... my P1's have the same issue.. cant keep up with them. Flash codings getting longer and takes more processing speed to get through it all.

I agree with the ads and them impeding data speed. Which is why I only visit this forum on my phone or tablet, my laptop hates life if I try to navigate around here.

Yep. every computer I log on from, even my tablet and I phone6, does the same thing!

Sometimes It gets so bad I just give up. the advertisers are losing a lot of money because of it!

My computers used to do the same thing until I installed the ad blocker. It was very aggravating.
