Updated Asean website slow??

[stupidfarang]

Not sure if it is just my connection or is the updated Asean website very slow to load? I posted a reply to a post, it was very slow to load the reply, also wanted to close one of the pop up adverts on here and that took a long time to close. Anyone else experincing the same?

Gave up yesterday as taking more than 2 minutes. Today opening your OP was 6 seconds, so more acceptable.

Yes, not very slow only also I have to reload the page at least two times before I can open any post.

Same same.

The tech chaps are working to get the forum fully up to speed.

 

It's slow for everyone (even mods), please be patient.

Asean Now is not just super slow (it just took 26 seconds for this thread to open for me), it's unusable. For days everytime I clicked on a thread a full page ad would pop up that I couldn't close. That seems to have been fixed (however ads still take 5-10 seconds to close for me) but I just tried to open a new thread about a border run and an ad covered the text box so I couldn't see what I was typing (so I gave up). And now same with this post, an ad I can't close is covering what I'm trying to write...crazy bad

 

Edit: Fixed typos I couldn't see while typing initial post

Super slow and not usable IMHO. Asia Now should have sent an email to explain what was happening and what is going on which would have more value than an email with a list of new threads.

I wondered why it was so slow. I can't read my own content. Hopefully this site will not die out.

Yay, all ads appear switched off and forum is fast and usable again. Who knew so many ads would kill the functionality of a forum lol
