Welcome to IWETHEY!

New Indeed, yes: it's gone White-out. :-/
Prior:
There has been (not quite-) always a hitch-in-the-getalong.. here.
Commenced with an 'improvement' some years back: any clickedon post produces a double-take: quick partial loading .. pause .. a slower reloading and then post is legible.

After various tweaks at your end (I presume - since I made no alterations beyond periodic moz releases), the 'hitch' has varied from barely-noticeable to - many seconds. Rarely.. site has seemed lightning-fast, maybe just after late-night dejunking? - but not always then. That speed doesn't last (for me.)

Yes, still on dial-up. (Ain't THAT cheap, but due to my location -- a tiny GTE-now-Verizon intrusion in county -- no access to ATT $15/mo stuff; only expen$ive cable etc.)

On log-in: any referrer or similar filter left in - gets no log-in box. When that change occurred - character default size became smaller, thus <ctrl> <+> is the rest of the login drill - ever since. (Inured to that, of course.)

__________________________________

Now:
- noticed early AM? PST on Fri.
Clicky on post: the initial 'flash' shows the text momentarily;
the second pass produces a lengthy piece of whitespace.
I mean HUGE: say, scroll bar is < 1/8" high - nada at the bottom, either.

(Fortunately, 'Reply' - works "normally".)

Additionally, and likely a new interaction with the [of-questionable-value] Zoom moz plug-in: the graphics, from iwethey logo --> to the very [LRPD - Itself] {shudder} are also enLARGEd. Setting them to "75%" etc. for normal -- reverts to Big next login. Maybe have to kill that sucker..

Forum list, Active User, Stats: display, quickly - hmm no hitch/getalong there...
Open a post: Flash-text, then All goes white, taking 10?ish seconds to load that Nothing.

Guts:
SeaMonkey, same old P-III, ancient 98SE-Lite. Dialup. No alterations here - nor strangeness seen at other sites. AVG,Ad-Aware etc. clean.

(Haven't logged-in on Mepis, Ubuntu etc. boxes.. this is, after all the Designated surf-junker, kept free of any Interesting data.) Scripts plug-in: is, of course set to allow IWE, with no restrictions. I have only the two plug-ins atop SeaMonkey 1.1.4

I'll try the usual easter-egging, next.. but for now, I'm blind.
Sorry to be the outlier. Again.

New Re: Indeed, yes: it's gone White-out. :-/
Just tried rereading my post: ~ 6 seconds to a tiny vert. scroll bar.
At least it did post - hey it's a WOM!

Karma? is there a plug-in for that?

New It's working now.
Clear your cache if you have issues.

New Hah! if I hit ESC just at initial 'flash-text' entry
- there's a bunch of white space, but the Eraser from CrawfordHell is arrested, text appears!

OK, now it's a game for awhile.. No sweat. I can just {sniff} limp along . . .

New I hate to say this, Ashton, but...
It's probably you. I've made no changes other than a point release upgrade to the database (didn't even have to upgrade the database data files), and I'm getting 159ms response times here. The pages are being built extremely quickly.

Any delays you see are likely network or local to your machine, and any visual changes are likely Win98/SeaMonkey/whatever funk-ass setup you have. You're on Windows; things are changing whether you know about it or not. :-P

The screen looks pretty much the same as it has for the past ~5 years here, other than the few additions I've made.

My suggestion: try it on a different machine in a modern OS and a modern browser. You might just be seeing Windows Rot.

New There is no reason...
...for you not to run Firefox 2.0.0.6.

1.1.4 is ancient. Whilst it's true that you can run anything you like, you will receive a better web experience if you run a better browser.

I've had flawless performance from Z on everything from dialup to mobile phones over GPRS to my Mac on a 20Mbps cable connection. If it's not working right for you, you have something wrong in your setup.

New 1.1.4 isn't ancient, d'oh.
Never mind me.
