I have shaw high speed extreme.
All other sites load in a heart beat, but LIVEVICTORIA seems to crawl/freeze at times.
I was slow a couple months back but now it just painful at time.

The site is loading slow for me and when I click on Messageboard that takes a full minute to load. Gathering info perhaps? Using IE 7.0.6 Windows Vista. - Fri, 10 Apr 2009 6:45pm

I use Telus 3G wireless, and constantly get time out errors on LiveVic as well as a slew of other errors, regardless of whether I use Firefox or punish myself with IE. Ah, the joys of a free site... - Fri, 10 Apr 2009 6:45pm

Thanks for bringing this to our attention. The server is running fine, but I just noticed that the third party DNS backup service we were using for the domain name, was having some problems.

We've got our own backup dns service now so I've removed our reliance on the other system. It'll take 24 hours for the changes to take effect for everyone, but hopefully it will stop the problem. Let me know if it seems to help. - Sat, 11 Apr 2009 5:14pm

I'm not sure if this is related, but I'm not getting the right pane loading on the home page. IE 7 is saying "Done but with errors" in the status bar. - Sat, 11 Apr 2009 6:33pm Edited: Sat, 11 Apr 2009 6:34pm

Yeah, that has been a problem of late. I spent a good while looking at it today. I think I know what might be wrong, I'm looking into it.

I've noticed the slowness myself, sometimes you don't get the crawlness/laggy response, sometimes the system slows to a crawl. I know this was brought up before, so frustrating too. - Tue, 14 Apr 2009 11:52am

The initial load still seems slow.
Are the drives on the server not in raid? could that be it?
I don't know alot about servers. - Tue, 26 May 2009 12:33am

Still really slow for me... and just the initial load. Once the first page is loaded, navigating the site is fine. Sometimes it just takes so long to load the first page that I give up. (actually that's not true; I have a lot of time... but I imagine people with shit to do might give up.) - Thu, 28 May 2009 6:24pm

I'm slow again. I think the whole Grimlord vs Yesser thing infected the board with some sort of internet bj voodoo.

The issue isn't the boards server, it's the route it takes. Nothing they can do about that. The issues start whem it routes from Shaw, for shaw users, to vtl.net which is also hosting the server. Average is 400+ms past ia-fnrt-bb02-ge1-1-1040.vtl.net. - Fri, 5 Jun 2009 9:34am

I'm not getting a slow load, but it seems to be getting all sensitive and blurred when I scroll, sometimes even freezing - Tue, 30 Jun 2009 10:19pm

Yeah, it's that damned Skafest banner ad at the top that's causing it. It's really starting to piss me off! - Tue, 30 Jun 2009 10:29pm

Is this causing a problem for anyone else? It all seems to be working equally fast for me on both sites (we haven't applied any banner on the front on LVan yet). - Wed, 1 Jul 2009 1:34pm Edited: Wed, 1 Jul 2009 1:35pm

The banner ads aren't affecting my load up speed, but the constant page refreshing is quite annoying, and they do severely limit the function of the back button in my browser.
