This is really strange. Since a few days, the 'Word game' thread freezes my internet connection when I wanna look on that same thread.
The other threads work fine and open up, but not the 'Word game' thread. It freezes the screen sorta. It keeps loading, but nothing happens. So, how comes??
I can open the first page, but whenever I wanna go to the last page, it freezes.
Does anyone else have this problem too? I don't think I've been slapped or banned, because I didn't post anything against the UAP (at least, I don't think so)?

Cheers

Yes.

I've just visited that thread and the last page takes forever to load and the system is very slow to respond to scrolling requests, text input, etc, while I'm on that page. It's fine again when I browse to the thread's previous page though.

Could be a forum bug or something unusual on that page - budokaiman's image looks suspect but doesn't seem to be unduly large. You could email Paul Johnston at TGC and ask him to look into it.

Edit Nevermind. I've just emailed Paul about it.

Well, I'm glad I'm not the only one. I thought I was slapped or there was some kind of trouble with my internet connection.

I just edited the post, and removed all of the pears. Sorry for causing that much lag for you guys, I never had any so I didn't think anyone else did either.

Especially if they come in pairs and you forget to pare them before eating.

You merely needed to repair your reputation by paring down the appearance of your pears.

Why? You're being treated with respect compared to some on this forum.

How long can we keep this up till a Mod steps in? Or better still, a pair of Mods.
