Slow To Load
 
I am having a problem with this forum loading very very slow. It take 2 to 3 minutes for each page (kinda resembles dial up). It is that way on my PC (both Goggle and Goggle Chrome) my tablet and my smart phone.

This is the only site I have that problem with so what could it be?

Probably all the ads. They have to load first as thats the most important thing to IB. They could care less about the rest of the forum so long as the ads load.

Does It load slow for you Odin?

Same for me. The whole page won't load until the pop up video plays on the lower left.... Boy that's frickin annoying

RCtech is always slow or gives me other problems. Pop ups, redirects to other pages, redirects to play store on my phone, etc. They will try and tell you its your device or computer. But that isn't the case. They cram so much advertising on here, and they don't even know what half of it is, that's why they ask users to screen shot the problem ads.

Go to any other site on the net and no issues on any of my 4 laptops or the 3 phones in the house. Come to RCtech, same story every device.

no trouble here, load times are fine...maybe internet connection settings/firewall and or antivirus.

I use RCtech on my phone all the time. Never had any issues. Ads quetly load on the side and bottom, etc... but have never seen a redirect to playstore, etc.

I can't say the same. And, I'm guessing depending on the ads trying to load, my phone will freeze and the site wont load. Have to close my browser and reopen the site. What's funny is that my phone loads the site better when I DON'T use WiFi. :weird::weird:

I too have just been hit with the redirects to the App Store.

Just started about a week or two ago. Very annoying.

I have tried turning pop up blocker on and it still does the same thing.

Run Firefox and the NoScripts addon and it will be rocket fast without the annoying ads. Redirects from the site are generally from accidentally mousing over one of the adchoice banners (will drift up the page if you inadvertently hover over one). Noscripts is annoying at first but once you start configuring it you'll wonder why you ever surfed without it.

No redirects or anything like that, just a white blank screen until the page loads. It took me 11 minutes to get on the site and to post this reply.

That's something on your end my friend.

Edit: took 3 seconds to post this.
