in Site feedback and Forum Help
Site has become nearly unusable.

5 pages of complaints on the feedback thread - one post from MSE.

Affecting a whole heap of people regardless of location, ISP, Browser.

It needs to be fixed. Frustration is mounting.

    It's not affecting me, site as normal, no problems, no speed problems, maybe it's not a site problem after all ?

    Surely if it was a site problem, it would be affecting everyone ?

    you must be one of the lucky ones then because it is atrocious here (also on Firefox) - verging on the unusable most of the time due to the extreme slowness and pages constantly hanging.

    It's NOT fine here either !
    Three machines a PC, Laptop and Netbook all very slow and have been since the updates.PC @ work and DD's laptop just the same.
    Different locations and providers all give me the same problems.

    I'm probably reading about 30% of the pages I used to and no other sites give any problems.

    The lack of concern and feedback is alarming and to be honest I was expecting better than this. :mad:
    It's not just about the money
