Honestly, I think the ads are making the website (for me, at least) slow down until they're finish loading. Whenever I scroll, the website moves in a few frames, and when I type, the letters don't immediately appear until after a couple seconds. I feel as if its the ads doing while they load up.

Any help?

They load asynchronously with javascript, so loading the page shouldn't be slowed down any. It's possible they might be bringing your computer down if it's low-end or old (I know the desktop I just replaced was starting to lag a bit on this site).

How does it work for you when the ads are off? Have you tried adblock to see the difference?

My laptop is fairly new, with an SSD and i5, even as I typed this, it still lags a bit. I'll try with adblock on and tell you in a few minutes.

No, never mind, I just tried it out and there is a small amount of lag (and I have a pretty high-end computer).

*sigh*

I really hate these ad people, but the ads are just now starting to make more money than adsense... I'll send another barrage of emails and try their twitter to see if I can get this resolved.

It's more faster without the ads. I mean, I have no problem with the ads, but they slow my browser down a lot, especially when they move. When the page loads, I see so much going on on the bottom left where it shows multiple links every few seconds.

Feel free to bitch at them about this until it's fixed: @sovrnholdings.

Fine..

I've already done it and hope to get a reply back, and if they don't send me a reply to my email I'll send another one of those (and another and another) until they reply.

The site has been running quite slowly for me the past couple of days. I figured it had something to do with that server maintenance stuff, I never suspected it was the ads.

Might be a bit of both.
