Default Board is STILL slow

This board is pretty frustrating waiting 20 seconds to load each and every page. It's no wonder there's hardly any new postings on here, everyone is jumping ship to FaceBullshit. There is a LOT of old heads that used to post prolifically on here that are no more.

I'm on a Mac running Foxfire and Safari and both browsers have the same delay; while the page is stalled loading, on Firefox a little window pops up "looking for adserver.finditquick.com" and the page doesn't load until adserver loads up.

Seems that the adserver glitch is killing off this board. Kind of counterproductive when the ad program glitches drive away the readers that might read the ads. Not going to sell anything that way.

I realize this Board needs revenue to run, but can another advertising program be used instead of adserver.finditquick.com??

Try these?

https://www.rctruckandconstruction.c...ad.php?t=13326

The top/bottom of page navigation links still throw you off the secure (https) url back to slowed down (http).

What Frizzen posted works for me.

I'm using firefox and I can confirm that it is the adserver is slowing down the forum, the reason changing from http to https works is your web browser creates secure connection and blocks all unsecured web domains so all it's doing is blocking the unsecured adserver. I also run a Ad blocker which I disable on this site because I want to support the forum but when I enable it on the http version of the site it loads just fine, this proves that it is the adserver slowing the forum down.
