Southpaw Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 Since these new types of ads were added to the site a few weeks ago (things circled below) the site has been running super slow for me. On my phone it takes an extra 5+ seconds to load every new page. Each new page will look like it's loaded expect for those ads, but I can't click on anything for another 5+ seconds until the ads load and if I try to click on anything before that either nothing happens or, even more annoying, it will often then open some other link often no where near what I tapped on, then I have to go back and wait another 5 seconds for the same page to load again. On my computer it's also much slower too, maybe an extra 1-2 seconds per page, but at least I can tell when the page finishes loading as the pointer shape will change once it's done so I can click on a link. On my phone if there's none of those ads within view I have no way of knowing when it's done loading and I can finally click on something. Anyone else having this problem?

Sarge Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 I am not seeing any ads but the forums have been slow on my phone and PC since the latest upgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChuckS Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 I am seeing the same stuff as southpaw on my Kindle. Same URL as the "Unresponsive Script" thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benos Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 The forum loads consistently loads lightening fast for me. I did, however, remove all the (key)words that display on the forums home page from the AL code. Depending on your browser (and now I also have to say "device"), you may have to clear the cache / history / data for the changes to be observable.

Southpaw Posted October 18, 2017 Author Share Posted October 18, 2017 I just tried clearing all history, cookies, cache, etc. and still having the same problem. So for example to get to this page I went to the forum homepage which appeared to be fully loaded in about normal time but I tapped on "Report Bugs or Feedback" forum link about 7 times with no response before it actually would recognize the tap. Then same thing once inside the forum when I tried tapping on this thread title to open it. I tapped it a bunch of times with no response because it forces me to wait about 5 seconds after loading each page before it will recognize a tap. And just before that I tried opening another forum, but instead it opened a different one that wasn't even visible within my screen instead, so it read my tap as being in a totally different spot on the page.
