This forum - terribly slow?

Since I bought the game last week I've come here often to read up on the details of the game, browsing through many of the tips and tactics threads. BUT the forum is terribly slow on my 5MB ADSL connection with Firefox. The main Sins webseite loads ok, but the forum takes easily half a minute to display. Every time I open a thread I stare at the screen, waiting... waiting. Sometimes is works ok, but in my brief experience about 2/3 of the time the forum is slow to the extent of uselesness. It's worse than trying to surf the net with a 14.4 modem... ;)

No other site/forum I frequent gives me that problem.

Sorry for posting this here into the general forum, but I don't know where to put it otherwise.

Yes, it is screwed up. In one of my threads, my last two posts have a line in the middle of the words just like underlined but in the middle of the words...

Someone inadvertently used an unclosed strikeout tag.

Well there are a lot of problems. First, the software is severely limited. The worst of any forums I use in fact. I can't even get email updates to threads! Font is too small and can't be reset, etc. Those are just a couple of the complaints.

But yes, I have experienced a lot of slowdowns as well. Sometimes posting takes a second, sometimes 5 minutes. That is way too long.

The forums load nice and fast for me. If there is any slow downs or lagging it doesn't last long(location: Germany).
