BuzzerBeater Forums

Hi,

Love the game, so I'll try and report rare instances of bugs where I can.

Lately, BB has been REALLY slow to load; it often takes over a full minute to load the next page. Now, if it is for entering a lineup or so, it's not too bad, but for just browsing, it is a big put-off. I start doing other things when I want to browse/prepare for a match and come back every 5 minutes. No way to use a website.

Status bar messages that typically show while waiting are:
- waiting for www.buzzerbeater.org...
- sending request to buzzerbeater.org...
- javascript:_doPostBack('ctl00$$contentHolder$lb...
- waiting for www.google-analytics.com
- waiting for ads.yieldmanager.com

Don't know whether it is the code you use, the servers, the add-partners or whatever (or my PC, browser or ISP for that matter), but I just thought you should know.

(btw I use Firefox, I have a 6MB line and do not suffer from this problem with other websites)

I can confirm this. Sometimes pages will just get stuck for a while loading. You could open BB in another window and that one might go fast while the other one is still stuck on loading. It happens to me very regularly.

edit...just happened when I clicked send message.

FWIW, I am using Firefox, and using Adblock Plus (so I'm not loading ads or triggering Google analytics), and I don't recall having any of the type of slowness reported here.

Since posting my comment, it seems to be happening a lot more and has actually gotten quite annoying.
