pfft, for YOU yeah, what about the people on dial up :dodgy:

It's dial up. It's not like you should expect it to be fast

As has been said, it's been in MyBB pretty much since the beginning.

You need more than that. you need to close the ob and flush it too.

Server load for something pointless.

RE: Gzip

A couple of suggestions for those who are having problems when loading the forums:

* Change to a lighter (less images) theme. There are a lot to choose from in your User CP.

* Choose to view less threads and less posts per thread (I know, annoying, but if you really want to save loading time, it might do).

*-)

I can't come up with anything else...

Edit:

Oh yeah...

* Turn off signature & avatar viewing.

* Turn off image viewing (I think this forum had this option, not sure...).

I myself am on Dialup, the forum loads just fine with me. I haven't seen a load message in ages (

).

I would have figured it would be enabled on server level :undecided:
