Is HMW Slow?
- Weapon: Double-Barreled Plasma Shell Shotgun
Okay I've done some initial searching of the forums but I haven't found anything yet. Does HWM and even all of Seibertron.com see slow to anyone else? Sorry if this was discussed somewhere and I missed it.

Yes, since the upload of the new skin, Seibertron is slow as Devastators mind.

I've had more issues with Siebs being slow at home than at work; it may be my connection, it may be beacase my 20G hard drive is 75% full, it may be because my computer is 5-7 years old. I hope to have someone look at it and see if it's any of these.

I haven't noticed much of a slowdown at all, but then again my current broadband is pitifully weak and those technicians keep messing with the cables

I get 5mb per sec at home and it's quite slow, other sites zip by.
Here it crawls and takes 30sec plus to refresh the screen.

It sems to drag its heels the most as everyone rushes madly to give the Sharkticons a good kicking. But sadly, as awesome as the new site skin looks, it does seem to have slowed down bits of it.

It's not really slow when I use my laptop at home, but when I'm at work, it's slow. It's so slow, it hurts my head.

For me, it's not so much that the pages load slowly but once the page loads, the menu refresh is slow and scrolling is painfully slow.

There are times when the page hangs after loading the banner, just sits there doing nothing.
Other times it loads fine.
Probably should stop up/downloading porn.
