    I mean i understand this place gets lot of traffic but honestly, can't something be done to speed up the page load times? It takes several minutes to load up the main page during daylight hours, only in the wee early hours of the morning or really late at night does the site load up at a decent speed. Is it just me or is everyone experiencing the same issues i am?

    I don't notice any drop in page load time...I think it might be your Internet.

    As others have said, there front page shouldn't be slow. I'm not sure if the issue is with your connectivity or something like that.

    Might be your internet speed. I have a <150KB internet speed (which sucks IMO) and it loads fine. maybe it's your internet browser.

    at my computer?
    well if you have cable internet... then it's probably because everyone else around you is using the internet at the same time, thus lowering your available bandwidth. Late at night everyone else is sleeping so you have pretty all that you can use.

    My internet connection is pretty terrible but I've never had problems with the main site... it's just trying to load gameplay videos that kills me.
