It now takes me 2x to 4x longer to load a page....You guys accessing on company T1s don't have to worry about banwidth, but us living in the Qwest induced technological suckhole do. I thought waiting 45 to 90 secs. for a page to load before was bad, now I can see I won't be reading very much here. Bells and whistles. Besides, It cheapens the special effort people went into to get pics on their sig before. Why do I care if someone else in logged on? I'd rather have my privacy. Pic for "Poll" and a couple at the page bottom are not loading.

Check your profile. At the bottom of the page there are "Hide from Recent Visitors" and "Hide Avatars of Other Users". Hope that help.

The load time is not due to the mod, it is due to the fact that our server is maxed out and it why we will be moving to a new server over the weekend.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">I've never seen any behavior like that.

I only have a 31.2K connect, and I haven't noticed any change in the page loading speed.

It might also be because I cleared the board Cache Last night because of some config issues.

Whent he board has it's Cache up to date it is much quicker.

I love my avitar. It has attitude. To bad I don't have the talent to build a shipset for it.

I like the new board features; they add character, as it were...

Seriously, I really like the "recent visitors" feature, so I know who's available to give fast responses to my Posts.

And the avatars give a little more insight into people's personalities.

Is it my imagination, or did I lose rank? I could have sworn I was a Capt. or Major, now suddenly I'm a 2nd Lt.
