I had to finally switch to Chrome to view this site and now it won't load at all using Chrome. I had to use IE this morning to get into the site.

New here and frustrating waiting for the pages to load, plus the ad blocking the banner at the top of the page, wtf.
I hope this is something that can be straighened out by the web designer. I have better things to do than wait for page to load, and eventually load, or have to click re-load to load. It seems to do with whatever host is using to revolve flash ads. Really distracts from the site, imho.
oh, also the long lag when one clicks "submit reply" is rather annoying as well.

Default slow loading!

I have to suspect that the site in general loads slow because the amount of add ons. The constant advertising takes alot to load which slows down the site browser. I don't know if blocking add ons will do the trick.
