Is it just me or this website is very slow.
It's very annoying to wait so long for a page to load.
I know is a popular forum but is there anything they can do to make it faster.

You could put the database on a seperate server (decicated) because of the high traffic to the site.

Are they hosted with you? What sort of load balancing do they use? Any PHP caching software installed?

Yeah - that site is painful to browse.

imho - they have too many boards and sub forums and "stuff" going on. A good streamline is overdue. Maybe even a "lighter" forum skin to speed downloads up a bit.

Speaking of forum skins: any chance we can get a new forum skin for this place ? the one we have now is fine - but it could be better.

I thought today it was incredibly slow, I had a PM which I replied to. Opening my inbox, reading the message and replying seemed to take an eternity.
