I have spent the last 35 minutes paging laboriously through the member list at around a page every 90 seconds or so and am totally disgusted by the load speed of the pages. In fact, EVERY page of the Forum and N3V site load between 15 and 35 seconds. Before anyone starts quipping about my browser and my ISP and all that let me state that THIS site is the ONLY site that loads that slowly. It will load slowly for IE, Opera, Sea Monkey, and Chrome also.
I have network monitoring software and it is telling me that the arriving page bits and pieces are arriving haphazardly and very slowly. My browser of choice (Firefox 13.0) is constantly showing a status of "Waiting for forums.auran.com" and the throbber is spinning up in the tab.
I have complained time and again to the "help" desk and they haven't even had the decency of returning my emails.
So, I may come back here from time to time, but I definitely won't be here regularly until SOMEONE looks into this and FIXES it.
By the way, all Content Managers of my Trainz versions tell me that the maximum download speed I am getting (despite having a FCT) is around 45 to 55kbps where I used to get over 300kbps. My ISP tells me that my download speed is fine, and the various "test your connection speed" sites tell me I am very close to the advertised upload of 250kbps and download of 500kbps so it ain't me, folks. This is undoubtedly tied in to the throttling going on by Auran/N3V.
