Lot of ads here that are slow to load, and cause problems.
Most guys here use Firefox or Chrome for their browser and install a free add-on called Adblock Plus.
Solves all the problems, and speeds things up nicely.
Good luck.

Typing a message is real slow and it's not typing all the letters I hit and I have to go back and fix lot of mistakes.

Solved my problems. Blocking 22 adds right now, that really clogs things up.

Browsing the campfire on my IPad or phone is painful due to the very slow ads. Very painful.

With laptop and FireFox/AdBlocker I don't notice a thing. Perfectly fine.

I have the same problem as Mad dog but it is only sometimes so must be specific ads that do it. I think it might be the ads that are continually changing.
