That wouldn't make much difference, really, since only one tab at a time would be active... Unless you do something silly like have it auto-refresh each tab every 10 seconds hoping for new Posts. The main page would be more practical for such a thing anyways...

Re: Slow Forums
Anyone else having the text input boxes being incredibly small? They're apparently still working but you can't read what you are typing.

Re: Slow Forums
And it appears that all the text from all of Fyron's Messages have dissappeared. At least for me they have. OH and Arkon's too.

Well I stopped using the "refresh all tabs" option when I realized that I had a dozen tags open to the same forum. Of course apache can handle me doing that. But I realized that I was being a system-load all by myself. If many people did it then they would probably end up lining up and waiting their turns.
Its like using XNews for newsgroup reading. Works like a charm if you are using multiple servers at once but if you have multiple windows open to the same server it can be felt.

Re: Slow Forums
My vote is on the CA broadband shortage problems. They must be having rolling broadband black outs or something. Now watch all of our broadband ISP companies tell us we must reduce our broadband usage by 20% so they can help those poor saps in CA.
(OR what ever state Shrapnel Games is located in.)
