I find that when I go to make an advanced post, the smileys show up slow and not all of them. Sometimes I find myself wondering if the site is working right or not. When I am in the same window to make a post none of the quick buttons to add a link, picture or email never pop up. I tried several other sites and don't have that problem.
I live in Colorado and connect at 28.8 on good days lol and its way faster for me now than last week it took forever sometimes I would think it wasn't posting what I had typed and I would hit submit again then it would come up several minutes later twice!!
Love this site and the people here so I delt with it anyway, works awesome now.
