Sooooo Slooooow

[brodels]

I would love to browse these message boards as a time killer, but it's just so slow. I know it can't just be me, it's the same at work or at home, wired or wi-fi. Any message board link takes at LEAST 30 seconds to load, after my 3rd or 4th thread I try to read I usually get frustrated and give up. I can't be the only one that experiences these super slow load times... can I?

I have no issue from home, cell or work... Maybe try pinging paizo.com and see how long it takes through each relay. I've seen threads in the past where AT&T for the western US flagged the Machine the website is stored on in the web by the ISP provider as an issue, and no AT&T subscribers in that area could access the page at all until Paizo made the ISP deal with it. Maybe its something like that.

according to Pingdom (https://tools.pingdom.com/#!/bFT8Ya/paizo.com) from NYC to paizo.com and the page to load averages 3.8 seconds, which is about what I have been seeing.

The actual paizo site works fine, its just the message boards that run slow for me. I used pingdom and tested paizo.com and got a load time of 2.12. Then I tested "https://secure.paizo.com/paizo/messageboards" and got 14.06 X_X. Everywhere I connect from uses optimum, wish I had something else to compare to.
