Check out the support forum, it's not a feature of the game its a bug/server problem... or something technical like tha! :shock:

Hmm, well it's been annoyingly slow for days... weeks... I forget how long. I don't remember it ever being very fast. Certainly it's nothing special today - I was going to post that comment yesterday but, well, ran out of time ;)

Just comparing it to other websites in general, it loads slowly, frequently over 5 seconds per page.

It's been worse in the past, then it was cured, but it is indeed slowing very much at certain times again.

I haven't been doing that much hunting recently because the browser just hangs when I try to get to the animals page with some characters. Everything has been slow - with intermitent spurts of normal speed - with an average of 5 to 15 seconds delay per click.

Really eats up the time and cuts down on role-play... it's a real catch-22. I want to role-play, but doing so eats up so much time, but what's the point of having time if I don't role-play...

Is there some kind of obnoxious diagnostic running for so much of the day? If it's just the server being overwhelmed, can we start a "Get Cantr More Bandwidth and More Servers" Campaign or something? I'd contribute money to that.

It's frustrating because there's not much to be done on our end of things... we just suck it up and get on with it. But if you only have an hour or two to play in a day, then you end up neglecting characters because half that time is spent waiting for a page to load. :(

Yeah I noticed it was when you click on the animals page the most...

Animals page took me about eight minutes to load just now. Attacking the selected animals took another five minutes. In total, in order to go in and out of a building, check the activites and objects, do a bit of hunting, and make a few RP comments - with just one character - took me from 149 minutes remaining to 125 minutes remaining :(

That page was by far the worst, but the others are not exactly speedy - 5 to 15 seconds modal average is pretty much what I experience as well.

I don't really care about wasting the minutes as I don't have 200 minutes spare to play so never run out - but of course it's because I don't have 200 spare minutes that I need it to run faster, or I'll have to kill off a couple of characters... or give up work... ;)

Edit: Even posting this post took about 20 seconds to submit - not sure if that's related or not, but internet for me is working fine on the other game and forum I'm using at the moment.
