| Any other WUS members out there? Is it just me or does your computer revert to dial-up mode whenever you surf through WUS? I asked a mod friend of mine over there but he said he didn't notice any lag in Germany. I find it painful to visit there anymore - - and didn't they just "upgrade" their servers and software? Mission not accomplished! And while I'm complaining...did anyone else notice WUS has put an 800-pixel max width on images. These days 800 pixels are like thumbnails! | |

| The worst is trying to navigate that site on my phone. Even scrolling through the page is slow and choppy. It hurts me. |

| Agreed, I can't even surf it at work anymore, the slow computers and the sites lag make for a frustrating experience. At first everyone said it was faster...but now it sucks. ____________________________________ Later, GaryRemember we are the caretakers of mechanical art.....

| Maybe it is due to all of the MODeration over there... It seems like every other post is either deleted or edited. I find the moderation painful over there! That is why I am glad that XMT is sponsor free...good or bad, you can comment without worrying that you will get a slap on the had for something that makes a sponsor "uncomfortable". Just don't say anything bad about Omega here...or this fanboy will delete it ____________________________________ M A R K

| I'm a member there but seldom post. Do frequent the sales forum and it is painfully slow. I am glad to know its not just my computer. | |

| I'm not a member Tom, but I remember you guys mentioning the whole upgrading thing a while back. ..Maybe there are still some bugs that are yet to be worked out with everything ! ____________________________________ | |

| Add me to the list annoyed.....but only when I use my MS XP operating system! I had recently downloaded Linux Ubuntu within XP as a test...and Linux is fast loading WUS pages, and it keeps me logged in all the time.....FFox browser in XP is a dog too! Never used to be! | |

I have the same experience at work, during lunch, of course, but at home, WUS is faster. Go figure. | |

| Sometimes I find it slow and sometimes it is OK. I always thought it was slow on my end but, it looks like we are all experiencing the same problem stemming from WUS' end. | |
