SLOW Connectivity & Surfing on MyLot. Server Upgrade?

mylot grows bigger everyday. lots of new members, lots of new posts. i think server upgrades are already under consideration. i guess the new upgrades, specially the sorties, loading altogether during startup, really slowed down the site.

I had also experienced a very slow speed in mylot which affected me much as I already had a slow internet connection. I need to take long time to load a page,especially after I gave comment to the replies, it would automatically redirect to the first page of the discussions, but it did not finish loading for more than three minutes, it caused me much inconvience as I had to wait until I finish on comment,I had to do it one by one,I could not open too many windows or my compyter would get frozen, I thought it was because of the new feature which made the loading speed much slower than before. Anyway, I think the server of mylot is quite good as you seldom see the server down, unlike other forums, they may even close down for maintanence, but there is a need for mylot to upgrade the system to cope with the increase numbers of members and keep the speed smooth for every members.

I've had this happen on and off since I joined Mylot 2 months ago. However, I find that if I log out for a little while and then log back in, it's okay again. I think with the new look that they gave Mylot just recently, and the sorties for the home page and the profiles, it slowed down the server something crazy. I hope they upgrade the server too, it would make for a much better enhanced service for all of us.

the changes here in mylot may have contributed to the slowness of mylot. They also have noticed this slowness and will surely make possible changes to improve it.

I am second month in myLot, and after i read your discussion I remembered, that really i checked that last period it become slow , even my pc have high speed. i think that it can be really related to big number of members. As i started on myLot, there were about 75 thousands of memmbers and now number grow up effectyvelly.

In my response to your "apology to my myLot friends" I already talk a bit about connection. Right now I am at home in Switzerland and am connecting with a DSL 5000 line. Top speed. Nice and phantastic. But in Sudan, where I live and work, it is all different. Some websites load "normal", but myLot is slow. And yet we have a huge server we are "hooked" on. But with some 100 users. So, I think, this by all means, has a slowing effect. It seems that our system will be upgraded. But I do not know, whether is to have more users or the speed. The fact is that to earn a abit of money from myLot, you need to post, answer and start discussions. Now, to resond to you, it took me about a minute, all included. Would I have done this in my "normal", usual day to day "place", this would have taken me 5 minutes, at least. In conclusion, I think you just have to be patient a bit. Indeed, myLot is growing very fast. And I am sure they are going to do something about it.

Yeah maybe you're right the site is a bit slow...I guess they should really do something for improvement. Faster site means more discussions done and will equal to great opportunity in earning. I really do hope they can do something about it.
