Is the site loading very slowly for everyone else?

Last couple of days, pages take for ever to load. Having the problem on my computer and iPhone; on wifi and 4G. Other pages are loading normally, so I think it must be SportsJournalists.com.

Posts seem to be fewer than normal as well, which leads me to believe others are frustrated too.
 
You are correct, shawty. Use Chrome most of the time but this site causes Chrome constipation, even with adblock.

Using TorBrowser just for this and Chrome for everything else.
 
Maybe someone who matters will look at this thread instead of the other, more esoteric titled one. Taking the question mark off might help. :(
 
I haven't had any issues the past few days, on my computer or iPhone.
 
I sent a note to a couple of folks who helped us get back up after we had our most recent meltdown and I'll pass on anything I hear back from them.
 
I've had problems on both iPad and iPhone, but not on the work computer. SUCK IT STEVE JOBS AND YOU TOO ASHTON KUTCHER.

I don't have a tablet and I don't use it on my phone, but both work (Thinkpad) and home (Inspiron) take 45-60 seconds to load each page. As FB noted on his thread, it's hanging up on "waiting for api.easyjquery.com."
 
extremely slow for me on my Dell, bringing back memories of the mid-90s and 56k dial-up internet
unlike others, my iPhone is loading pages just fine
 
I'm still on 3G like it's 2009, but this site is basically inaccessible from my phone.
 
Wasn't on much yesterday, but it was slow. Working fine now, here and on my Pad. Not sure how anybody reads this on a phone so I got nothing there.

I had no idea that other thread was about this issue. The thread title was pretty whack.

+1 on the whack-ness.

And the slowness. I noticed it starting Friday night. It's actually fine on my iPhone (probably because I haven't cleared cache lately), but it's brutal on my Mac laptop. Glad it's not just me.
 
It would be great if the site owner could add the feature to optimize this for smartphones.
 
Not sure if it's any way related, but streaming avatars on here seem to freeze my computer (spinning colored ball) and make pages take much longer to load.

Chrome handles this site much better than Safari for me.

I've stopped trying from my phone. Takes forever.
 
It's loading just fine for me today - knock on wood.
(Wasn't on much yesterday. Though I think it loaded quickly when I popped on to see if any progress had been made in the XBox dynasty).
 
Is there a fix for iPad Safari?
Dumping cookies cache didn't work.
