Yep it’s lagging like hell last couple of weeks.

 

[Meadow]

I thought it was my ad blocker slowing things down but it doesn't run any faster when that is disabled.

 

[JJ1990]

Yep, painfully slow at the moment.

 

[Alfie]

Slow, slow, slow.
Forum will lose most members if nothing is done.

Yep - I haven’t been bothered to visit this forum as often as I used to because of how slow the bloody thing is.

Needs sorting - as does the stupid pop-up ad!

 

[GTFCfish]

Yep it’s absolutely awful.

If only there was another forum, one where there are no ads, one where things load up instantly, and one where the mods on it actually give a shit about the place……

Mate believe me I would post on the other forum if it wasn't so empty in the lower leagues and I once tried to get others to come, but no matter how bad this forum here gets it is always miraculously saved at the last minute and everyone then just acts like nothing bad to it ever happened and carry on posting.

It's so slow now and that bet365 ad that comes up at the top proper does my head in.

Yeah true but if enough of us went over then problem solved, it worked for the non league section they all post on the other one now and this non league section is dead. Just League 1 and 2 keeping this place going.

It would need to shut down completely for enough people to move over and I don't even know who runs this forum now and do they even care about the place?

 

[Richard Cranium]

Yeah the other forum is run so much better but the League 2 section is virtually dead. This place went down for about a month a couple of years ago and no one really migrated from this section then so can’t see it happening.

 

[Admin]

Hey there! I understand your frustration. Currently, we are in the process of our annual server upgrades. We anticipate completing them soon, and once that's done, things should return to normal. In the meantime, let's stay patient and share any updates we come across regarding the improvements. Appreciate your understanding!

What’s the league 1 forum like?

Asking for a friend.

I’ll let you know next season bud.

Amazing how anyone mentions the other forum and an admin suddenly turns up!

This has been posted about on the support section for about a month and nothing, mention another forum and you jump out the woodwork as you are scared people will run off again.

The non league section was dead too until everyone migrated over, just seems to be a certain section of fans who refuse to move no matter how bad this place gets.

Admin hadn't been online in over 6 weeks until this post

A bit like when you're waiting in for a parcel. Nothing for six hours, you think it's safe to nip to the loo, and as soon as your pants are round ya ankles there's a bastard knock at the door. They do it on bloody purpose.

 

[Indian Dan]

Slower than our ‘defence’.

 

[Master D]

It's on dial-up I think.

Utter garbage forum but nobody wanted to go over to the other place in L2.

Adblock plus on a computer and adblock browser on a mobile does the trick.

Possibly because I tagged admin in my post. Even if they don't visit this forum, they've probably got email alerts set up.


EDIT - seems to be running a lot quicker now.

I just had a look at the L2 forum over there and it is absolutely clogged up with prediction league threads.

That is a massive turn away.

 

[Conker]

Yeah those moaning about L1/2 not going over there just look at the state of it, doesn’t look like anyone cares to me considering all the threads.

Nope, not for me. I don't do predictions. Maybe someone on there could have a word with the admins and make it a vibrant forum to visit.

Alfie's match day threads are very good here and they encourage participation with the stats provided. I'd like to know who he supports.

Difficult to remain patient when it's been like it for a month, people have raised two main issues in the relevant area of the forum and no-one replies.

I have asked him but he did not answer it remains a mystery Alfie

 

[Chris FGR]

Understandable. I like to keep it a mystery who I support too.

Manchester United isn't it?

Admin TractorBoys

I've reached out the owners to highlight the main issues which can be resolved within minutes. Happy to do it for them should they require; but can't make any edits without prior permission, sorry.

Merry Xmas x

Shouldn't have to tag an admin or mod to get a response, a well run forum would know about the issues daily. Theres been a thread in the support section since November with no response and as I said in there, 4 mods and 4 admins on this site and none had been online in over 6 weeks, some in over a year. That's not how you run a site.
