    I'm curious why this site is so slow today and yesterday, it's like I'm browsing off a dial up connection, yet I got a dedicated 20mbit line, so I know it's not my connection..

    What's the deal? Do you guys need better hosting? heh let me know :)

    I'm having the same issue, got a Database Error earlier. Seems to be slower handling PM/iTrader sections. Sure it's just a small hiccup and will be speedy in no time :)

    Edit: Healing words of mine made the site quick again lol

    It's due to the fact that there's so many users online at once. It's bound to slow right down at times.
