In Reply to: Pages slow to load posted by Rob on February 28, 1999 at 19:08:19:
A lot of it could be due to your ISP. Our servers are very reliable and put speed of serving the pages first, but your connnection to the internet may not be. ISP's connect you to the internet in sections and the traffic/routes from wherever your ISP is to where our server is may be what is having the problem. That would explain why one site might load slower than another. There have been no changes to the server on our end since May 98 except that we got so big we had to add another server in feb 99. This particular page , the bulletin board, does get slower and slower because every time someone posts a message this page gets bigger. That is why we cut the page in half and archived the first part. It is almost getting too big again so we will be archiving again very soon so the bulletin board doesnt take forever to load - Ghosttowns.com
