i know this should be in site discusion but this is really been bugging me and I dont know if its just my computer but a random abort thing pops up and it puts me to a error page and then i cant get back to NS unless i exit and pull up a new internet explorer. Or it freezes as im loading a new page. My freind is haveing the same problem, anyone else. What is going on?

I'm having some problems.  First of all, when I click to reply to a thread, like 75% of the time it takes a few minutes for the text box to load.  The page appears, but I can't type anything into the box for a while.

Another problem occured a little more recently.  Pages in the forum are taking forever to load.  Hell they are not loading.  It looks like they are loading but they don't.  And when I 'x' the page out I get a message saying that the server is busy blah blah blah.

I don't know if this is my computer or NS, but every other website is working just dandy

same here. well not a few minutes but a good forty five seconds.

and also when i type in the text box to respond to a thread the lag on the letters showing up is really bad. it will take like 1 minutes for the letters to show up.

Firefox has been no better for me, but Chrome is good.  I just don't like having to use a different browser every time I want to get some NS action.

i've been having the same problems too, especially with the text box thing. sometimes the text box straight up won't load. there'll jsut be what i'm quoting and a reply button and a big blank space where the text box should go.  We're on the verge of blowing up the NS servers!

People that run NS need to get on top of this.  Maybe IE sucks dick, but the other websites I go on are running fine and NS isn't.  I'm probably going to download firefox or google chrome and see what happens.

I am using IE 7 and I keep getting some error. This has been happening to me on several different computers now, so I think it is more an issue with the site than anything.

NS, please look into this as it is dramatically decreasing my user experience.

Yeah, I cant read the forums because IE keeps crashing.  Yes I understand that firefox is better, but it still should not be crashing my IE.  I barely check the site now, please fix it.

Im pretty sure its a script somehwere on the site. probably the backround, when that got put up is when it started happening. and i was at my dads house and logged on on his comp and a pop up came up that said "Script on the page may cause internet explorer to run slowly. allow or No" i just hit allow because i didnt think it was anything but i guess i was wrong. pardon the double post
