Anyone notice how slow FBGs forums home page displays compared to other sites? (2 Viewers)

For the last few days, maybe longer, I’ve noticed how slow FBGs is compared to all other sites I visit. Is that an issue with FBGs, or my service provider? I suppose it could be either, but if it were my SP I would expect other sites to load slowly as well, but I’m not seeing that.

Edit, @Joe Bryant it happens loading the forums home page. Whether newly entering the forums, or by clicking “ Our Forums “ once you’re already in a forum. Any other clicking, such as in different threads, is fast.

I have noticed the same over the past month or so. Not a problem, but yes, slow enough to be noticeable. Not an issue once in.

It's been slower-loading than other sites for quite some time for me, on both PC and phone. But the last 3-4 days have been noticeably worse.

Same for me.

Seems to happen when loading the home page of the forums. After already there it’s not noticeable. @Joe Bryant

Same

If I am in the FFA and want to get to the Shark Pool and click the "Other Forums" at the top it takes about 10 seconds to load.

@Joe Bryant I just did a test. One, entering the forums home page newly, second, clicking “Our Forums” once already in a forum, both are slow to load the home page for the forums. If you do anything else, like clicking on a thread, looking at reaction etc., it loads fast. In conclusion, it happens loading the home page of the forums.

Agreed.... Much slower than previous experiences ... wonder if this is fall out from the AWS server issues recently

pretty sure they will want you to log a ticket with the service desk

Pretty easy to duplicate if reading my previous post.

Yes, thought it was just me, was checking my internet strength, tried other browsers and devices and concluded it was not a me issue.

It's not that it's hard to duplicate. It's that Joe is not the website tech maintenance or developer. You have to tell the right people.

Yep, literally just now I was wondering what was going on. Been like this for a few days at least.

 

[Neal Cassady]

Yes, last few days have been worse than usual.

LOL, if only that were accurate.

I've noticed that if I click on the "our forums" link, it takes a long time to load. The individual forums, such as the shark pool or the free for all, and all of the threads in those forums, still seem to load quickly to me.

Thank you. @IHEARTFF is right. Everything for topics like this has by far the best chance of being solved if it can go to our Help Desk.

This link is best. Thank you!

I'll pass this along to the help desk people for this one and they'll take a look and see if it's anything they can address.
