GFY, slowest site on the internet? - GoFuckYourself.com

L-Pink · 03-11-2008, 12:02 PM

Everyday GFY is the slowest site I use. For a site targeting webmasters it's pathetic ......................

baddog · 03-11-2008, 12:03 PM

It has gotten pretty bad over the last few days.

MattO · 03-11-2008, 12:06 PM

Yea it's pretty slow compared to most sites.

Monique Niccole · 03-11-2008, 12:08 PM

The last few days its been soooo sloooow. Worse than Myspace.

Bojangles · 03-11-2008, 12:24 PM

Yeah, it's been pretty slow lately. I wouldn't call it the slowest site on the internet, though.

boneprone · 03-11-2008, 12:25 PM

Contact the hosting company with your suggestions on how it can be better.

aico · 03-11-2008, 12:25 PM

I don't think anything can be slower than Myspace

Roald · 03-11-2008, 12:32 PM

GFY is terrible, has been like this for as long as I can remember. One would think they can afford a better setup

I don't think I've visited MySpace more than 6 times but it looks like when creating their pages there the dudes think something like: "hey, can I stuff 300 gifs + 179 annoying midi songs on one single page? well, lets find out!"

hehe so very true

I took to surfing myspace with my speakers off and if I open more than one profile, images turned off.

with the $10k a pop or whatever they get for running these shit awful skins you'd think for sure they could speed the forum up a little. gfy makes it's entire profit off the fact that we all come here, and they make coming here sooo damn laggy...

Database errors that result in pages that request we send email to TexasDreams, at that.

SABAI · 03-11-2008, 07:16 PM

It's because they dont host with WEBAIR

Wanderlust · 03-12-2008, 06:21 AM

campimp · 03-12-2008, 07:18 AM

definitely slow, but i guess to be expected as big as the forum is.

Jens Van Assterdam · 03-12-2008, 07:21 AM

slow as fuck for me.. but only in the evening.

sniperwolf · 03-12-2008, 09:25 AM

WebCashMaker · 03-12-2008, 09:37 AM

Does anyone know how many servers they use to run GFY ?

Or what the set up is ?

u-Bob · 03-12-2008, 10:08 AM

sad but true

MattO · 03-12-2008, 10:33 AM

You can't say it's slow because of the size of the forum, there are plenty of mainstream forums than can handle 10-20k logged in users at a time and aren't nearly as slow as GFY.

And a lot of those have all kinds of features you think would slow them down, user avatars, large signature files, last read in thread features, etc...

I'm reading lots of dangerous sentiments being expressed in this thread.
