    Exclamation WOD running slow on Firefox...

    Is it just me or has anybody else noticed that in the past week or so, WOD seems to be running excruciatingly slow on Firefox?

    Runs blisteringly fast on Safari on OSX and Windows though... so am thinking this is perhaps something Firefox related. Just that all page refresh or navigating to any other page takes almost 20-30 seconds as compared to 1-2 seconds in Safari. Huge difference...

    @Gazer - Can we have the bank and buying gifts back please? Its a great way to show your appreciation when someone goes out of their way and helps you... well I think so anyway Hidden Content ... maybe I'm wrong.

    Also, there used to be an indicator under the avatar to show the person being online/offline... used to be a big help in deciding if you wanted to PM or page that person...

    Which brings me to the next request... PAGE !! or message... can't seem to find that... that was a neat feature... please can we have it back?

    And can I please have ?10000 while you're granting all my wishes? Sorry boss... its just my lucky day today... just wanna see how far I can push it Hidden Content

    Not having any speed issues here on firefox, I was having loading problems at one point but they seem to be fixed for the moment. Have you tried updating FF or uninstall and add it again, maybe a problem with itself.

    Re: WOD running slow on Firefox...

    I had a problem with firefox but it was one of the addons/plugins that was causing the issue, I uninstalled it and everything was back to normal.

    I think the pagers and vbplazza etc were outdated once gaz upgraded the board, I could be wrong and probably am but there was deffo a good reason for them not getting put back on.

    Oh and there's a wee ball next to peeps names, if its green then they are online, if its red they are offline

    Re: WOD running slow on Firefox...

    Hmm... have uninstalled FF on my work laptop and work desktops. Just using Safari at the moment. A lot quicker.

    Perhaps you're right MzB... must be one of the plugins I installed. I just didn't have the patience to uninstall them all one by one! Safari is quicker... so for the moment, I'll just stick with it... although I miss xmarks and the link preview.

    Hey... what about the ?10000? That's not fair... you guys answered all my other questions!

    Try latest Opera browser. I prefer it to FF tbh.

    I have no probs with FF either, but I miss some of the other bits like the gift tags. Shame if they won't work with the new layout.
    I have to admire Pande's cheek slipping the last request in though! Hidden Content
