Not that anyone should care, and I'm not whining, just stating fact.
The only reason I clicked on to the site is because my email notified me as to a reply on a thread that I had posted. I seldom come over here anymore, just cuz its soooooo sloooow.
I donno, I'll buy all kinds of parts for my trucks, often throwing $$$ around, but I cannot seem to pay to join a site.
Again, I guess I understand, just telling it the way it is for anyone who wants to know. There are other places to go...slim

The site has been running really slow the last week or so for me but now it seems to firing right up. I feel it's useless to complain about the speed of the site because the speed seems to go up and down all of the time. I only complain when something other than speed problems occur. I have a feeling this site has lost a lot of regular viewers because of the hassles their advertising policies and making features, like the classifieds, harder to navigate. We like simple. The board specific "Swap Board" was a great idea, the current classified are useless and cluttered with useless filtering features, IMO. It doesn't make sense to me to make the site user unfriendly by adding more ads, with the added problems, if it drives viewers away.

We are making some significant improvements to the speed shortly.
We recently made some significant updates to the hardware, and just in the last couple of days we have built a piece of software that makes loading a site much more time efficient. We are currently completing testing of that!

Adrain,

The site seems to running fine at the moment. I haven't been on because my desk top can't seem to hookup with this site. I'm on the laptop and seems to work just fine.

Same here. However, the fact that I even got an email is a change for the better. I didn't get any email notices for 2 months... long enough to find other places to visit on line.

It does feel like that.. but in numbers game probably not noticeable.
