    For much of the morning, the site was unreadable for me. The menu across the top shifted to the left and covered the text boxes as well.

    I didn't experience any of the issue mentioned her lately, but I can't help being curious: with which kind of devices they happen? Is there a reason or a common clue bringing all of those who got these problems together? :cautious:

    I get the "long running script" and generally freezing on my work desktop.

    It always starts when I see the "Coming up!" ad that has a series of things dated today's date. It is below "trending threads" in chrome, and below my profile in explorer.

    And while it doesn't freeze my iPad, it does crash it repeatedly.

    right now there is a 10 sedond delay between what I type and what appears on the screen.

    This has to stop if Bigsoccer expects me to actually lend my eyeballs to their advertisers.

    same here. I'm actually spending less time logged in . I'm wondering if anything is being done since no comments by technical staff appears here.

    I don't know if I'm spending lest time logged in, but I visit fewer forums than I used to. I don't know if that's a result of the new design, or if it's a result of the problems (or maybe that's the same thing), but, yeah; it does seem to be going unaddressed.

    Today it seems better, less dragging in page loading and quicker posting lapse.

    nevertheless it is still slower than what I was accustomed to. Is it the case that only some posters are experiencing difficulties, or is it a large, but silent, number of posters having these difficulties ?

    @dark knight - is anyone monitoring this, or should complaints/feedback be somewhere else?

    There are page elements taking a long time to load

    Maybe configure your browser to lighten the load until the techs confirm alles in ordnung

    So it doesn't affect your comp. Do you have a paid or free membership ?

    My access shouldn't be any different. I'll compare your setup with mine.

    I need more guidance on what is going on since I'm not seeing it - pages are always loading slow on all platforms for you?

    People using browsers are seeing serious lag issues when posting.

    I'm usually on Tapatalk, but have seen the issue when using Chrome v59 on my my Windows 7 laptop.

    Anecdotally, I experienced this when an ad was loading - as described recently.

    Edit: has more to do with typing the post and appears as a memory issue with the browser.

    I've seen it the most egregious in Chrome, but I have also seen it in Edge on both Windows 7 and 10.

    I'm probably posting 99% from my phone these days, but things work great.

    (I'm also premium which is probably why I'm not suffering any.)

    Is it just me, or was this site easier to navigate in 2001?

    I dunno about 2001 since I started in 2006. But there's some truth to what you say. But then again there are probably new features that didn't exist back then which we totally take for granted now, like multi-quote or jump-to-top or automatic-social-media-formatting or ??

    p.s. When are they going to add the ability to add a 2nd or 3rd club to your profile list/display?
