I'm not sure whether this is the correct place to post this. Of the 3 F10 forums, downloading the pages for this forum is the poorest. There's no problem for me for the other 2 forums.

Without knowing more about the connection, etc., it's hard to say what's going on. Pardon my ignorance but doesn't the Singapore government pass internet traffic through a proxy to filter/censor content? If so, maybe this site is being slowed down somehow?

good point, but the OP said the "slowness" is only apparent in the f10 section

" There's no problem for me for the other 2 forums."

Or did he mean 2 different discussion board sites and not 2 sub sections of 5series.net

but what do I know, i'm not a mod, just a douchebag



BTW, nice avatar professor

At first, I also thought he was referring to one forum out of the others here but I'm pretty sure he's talking about 5series.net being slower than other F10 related sites...

Oh, and yes, you're not a mod, nor are you a super mod!

I don't think internet is channeled through proxy etc cos anti-govt matters and porn can be downloaded It's not due to photos either, but yes it will take longer if there are photos. Also, I've no problem with the other two F10 forums.

My problem is eg I can usually download the F10 topics discussion main page. Also, eg no prob downloading the first pages of http://forums.5serie...e-showdown-lol/ and http://forums.5serie...et-up-f10-535i/ but I have difficulty downloading page 2 of these 2 threads.

Also, if I wish to edit my reply, I often have difficulty accessing the full editor function. If I don't use the full editor function, my edited message is often garbled somewhat.

Does the above make sense?
