future proofing mate ;D

It's really bad on the iPad and iPhone!!
Takes forever
-
It's horrendous now.
Some topics open quickly, others take a minute or two.
Feels like I'm back on dial up!
-
There's no lag on other cleaning forums. (what, there are other forums)
;D
-
hav patience lads

The server for this site is based in Germany - transferring the forum to a server physically in England is all thats needed,..

People have been complaining about this problem for YEARS.
If the site owners cared they would have fixed it years ago.
My opinion is they don't care. It works well enough to get high traffic so why spend money.
-
some german prisoner runs this site :o :o :o, whats the world coming too

I think this forum's days are numbered.
Its so old and outdated its painful.
personally I prefer the newer modern type of things popping up on the likes of facebook.
On here you need a degree in computer sciences just to post a picture, its ridiculous.
Its so slow I usually click on a topic then go make a brew while it opens.
Contacting other members is frowned upon so disabled.
I cant easily get it on my phone so most of the time its old news.
The facebook groups are dynamic, fresh, lots to look at and therefore entertaining.
Sorry guys but this old dinosaur is on last legs IMO

+1
And I really hate to agree because I run my own forum too - but facebook pages & the like are really taking over and have many more options. :'(
-
Who actually owns this site?
Another forum I'm on "mr foggys" (that's not the name of the forum so tosh don't delete my post) lol recently updated, and it took a few hours, and all runs nice and smoothly.
Surely there is a relatively easy way to do this?
Or perhaps the "moderators" could report back the issues.
-
likes been said they could have updated it years ago.. but dont care.. its no full adverts ::)roll thats what its all about to them
-
adverts are all they are bothered about every day another pops up on here. forum admin advert .££££££££££££££
-
One day it will fall over, but in the meantime, it suits us old lags logging in dead slow and don't worry about it. Anyway, most of us have other more interesting sites in other browsers going on, so it's not as if cui matters that much - it's just a bit of fun. Relax.

I'm afraid I agree. I could imagine this on an old BBC computer, but we have the internet now!

But I bet you don't spam Facebook with adverts for subbies. ;)

As said UK server req'd or just get an ipad. The only lagging for me is going to work in this crap weather.
-
Direct comparisons to the lag on this site can be drawn regarding window cleaners that are regularly behind with their work.
You're in it for the money just the same as the site owners.
You don't spend out unless you have to.
Customers expect freebies.
You take on more than you need.
There are high and low customer demand periods.
Its always f***ing raining. :P
You don't look at it from any other angle apart from your own.
The only difference is you expect payment from your customers.

Hi Guys,
Many thanks for bringing this to our attention, without feedback it's difficult for us to know about these problems. We are looking into the speed issues currently, if you have any ideas about how you would like your forum to work/be different please air them in the "Forum Development Suggestions" section here:
http://www.cleanitup.co.uk/smf/index.php?board=26.0
We are looking to make certain changes this year and want to make sure that the investment we make benefits you all.
Thanks for your time here.
Mitch. ;)

I posted on there on 26th October.
You've replied (and locked) the post today.
Professional and responsive you are. ::)roll

PoleKing what do they owe you? What have you paid to use this place?
If you don't like it pi$$ off.
Alternatively take your own advise
It's just the internet. Try not to worry.

Apologies for the locking of the topic, the admin login is default to lock topics! I have now unlocked this for discussion further if need be.
We are in the middle of discussions for an overall update including all plus more of the issues raised. Keep the ideas coming in the development section and then we can make sure every effort is made to fulfill all issues.

Nothing.
I'm not worried just odd to portray that admin is bothered about individual requests when they're clearly...not.
It takes 3 pages of moans to get a response but responded they have, better late than never.
I'm happy with the forum to be honest.
But annoying hanging but as has been said, it's free, so I'm not bothered.
But get you being all sensitive!
-
Not sensitive, superior ;D ;D

To a CIU member? That's like being the most trustworthy scouser innit?
