Is anyone else getting fed up with the forum jumping around before it settles down and you can use it? I will click on something and it just jumps up and down and if I click on something before its finished jumping I may end up with one of our sponsor's ads, or something I never really asked for. If I read what's happening at the bottom left of the screen it says:

waiting for pubads
" " facebook
" " amazon
" " skim-somthing or another

These all flash really fast, so its hard to read them, but every time it changes the screen jumps.

Glad to see I'm not the only one this happens too. I thought it was either just my ipad or me being to impatient. Yes, I am tired of it. But can anything be done?

I've got that too. Just when I click on something it jumps out from under my cursor. I also get taken to an odd mostly blank screen with some advertisers info. The "last post" function also won't work for me either. It just takes me to the top of the last page in a thread.

Well it's not happening to everybody just you "special" ones. Does it do it all the time?

I can't say all the time. But most of the time.

I'm not having that problem but the slowness is downright annoying, but that's nothing new.

I spoke too soon. It just happened to me too, when I was trying to send a post. Got an ad.

I am aware of the excruciatingly slow load times. We are moving to another new server within the next week or so. This new machine should be many times faster than our current setup. Thanks for your patience, everyone!

Just so you know, it continues to happen to me. I've lost my place so many times I can't begin to say how often.

I thought the slow was just my Internet and the jumping, well, something else. Thanks Josh for always looking to improve and keeping us informed when we have a problem. Much appreciated.

It's a delicate balancing act! I'm hoping we can get on the new machine in the next couple DAYS but I can't make any promises.

I am guessing the site will be down when that happens, correct? Will you give us some warning when it's close to happening time?
