    I have zero problems.

    This is something for the Player Support forums but works fine for me still. Sounds like you need to cleanup your browser cache, update your browser, or something along those lines. Sorry, not a DBG issue.

    Could also be a connectivity issue, but to digress again it’s really not an issue players or DBG can likely help you with.

    I have done all that with Firefox and the issue persists. It is very hit or miss though. I have been lazy and I have not tried other browsers.

    Neither Chrome, Firefox, or Safari give me issues, I’d use all three depending on the device.

    Sometimes these forums suck, they're slow and it can be annoying.

    It's been pretty hot garbage lately on Firefox, Chrome, and Palemoon.

    I've cleared my cache, deleted cookies, restarted the computer a few times, and these forums are still laggy as all get out about 90% of the time. stop load, refresh, wait 2 minutes, stop load, refresh til it finally pops up.

    Try using a VPN/proxy and see if that helps.

    The forums lag at times. This is a 100% Daybreak issue as it does not happen on other websites.

    Its the only website I have trouble with - honestly. Especially in the morning it takes forever to load oftentimes.

    100% a DPG issue. This isn’t the first complaint about it. Forums take forever to load, and I find myself just going somewhere else. This website is garbage.

    I have no idea how they could NOT have compression enabled. That is Web Development 101. And no browser caching for png images?

    As a comparison, my website has PageSpeed Score A (100%) and YSlow Score A (91%). The only reason mine is slow sometimes is I have the cheapest hosting possible and I'm running several wikis and a forum on it..

    What's this mean?

    Yeah I’ve tried other browsers too and I have the same issue. Even doing it on my phone. It’s been like this for awhile
