I am not saying that the webpage cannot be displayed all the time. About 90% of the time I can load the webpage without problems. The other 10% is when the loading time takes too long (like more than 10 seconds or so). Perhaps, my computer doesn't have the patience; if the webpage takes more than 10 seconds to load, it will stop loading and gives this message
"Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage".

I have the same thing but with firefox and during the old version already ...like a timeout when it's taking too long to load but more than ten seconds (quite annoying actually

).

it is time to dump the IE

get Chrome or FF. free things are better.

here, our internet line is much slower than AUS or other countries nearby. yet, i mostly use 2-4 tabs for BC. i able to load faster than the previous software, subject to my ISP is in good mood, or else it still load but slower.

chris-ccc, if it shows that message and you can see BC 90% of the time, during your surfing time, then most likely it's the (internet/ISP) connection issue. I've encountered similar issue before but very rarely..

Thank you all for giving me info.

As ctjcad mentioned; it's most likely an internet/ISP connection issue.

**demolidor** · 06-01-2010, 04:31 AM

I don't think it's an ISP issue. This is the only site where it happens at least once on every visit. Perhaps it's just too busy and can't handle the request

Was just gonna specify a bit more: every longer session, say 20-30+ minutes with multiple tabs.

o mai god...

at the first, i think BC got hacked..
but then..
hmmm..i like this new BC..

GOOD JOB Kwun..!!

for those who experienced speed issues, can you let me know if it feels faster now? i upgraded the caching software and turned on more caching features. it feels speedier from my end.

**ctjcad** · 06-02-2010, 07:04 AM

dear demolidor, i've also never encountered that issue, on *every* visit, even if i have several tabs or windows open for 20-30-40 or longer minutes..

kwun, i haven't noticed much yet..still quite fast or the same speed on my end..

Also? Like your clone?

You never had a page not load?? Try opening different threads in new tabs from the main page at the same time. With the old software there was bound to be at least one not loading at some point. With the new software I had it a few times in the beginning but none yesterday (only when I was uploading but that was to be expected and not the normal situation I meant).
New software feels faster to me as well, already used to the colours and font size by now (even on 12").
Although it didn't seem to have anythnig to do with having multiple threads open, just a random occurence (only mildly annoying when posting a reply, otherwise a minor delay only).

dear demolidor:
- No, there's no clone (whatever you meant?). I meant to write "i never encountered that issue also"....pardon the early morning typing..
- Of course i've had a page not load (who hasn't??)....however, not *every* time (as you mentioned); rarely if it happened..
- What do you mean by "opening different threads in new tabs from the main page at the same time"??..at the same time?? what do you mean??..is that even possible?..
FYI, i hardly use the tabs (in IE or FF). I only open new windows, if needed. Sorry, can't help you there as i hardly encounter such issue with the current version or the old version..

I still can't tell if the speed of the forum is faster than before or not..

**ctjcad** · 06-02-2010, 02:04 PM

btw, demolidor,
i also tried to open different threads in multiple tabs (in IE), as you suggested, and so far there is no problemo..

Post #159 and #162?

~At the same time = one after the other in quick succession but that's probably not the cause since all three or so I opened were stalling yesterday whilst I was uploading to YouTube but during the same upload I had no trouble loading bc pages later on or before even. So I'll just stick with the peak usage explanation. But as I said it's a minor thing so a non-issue already imo ...

**ctjcad** · 06-02-2010, 02:31 PM

dear demolidor,
posts #159 and #162 were in response to your post #158. #159 was in response to your first comment. #162 was in response (late response as i didn't notice it til today) to your second comment abt opening mult. tabs..

well, hopefully it's already a non-issue..i hate it when it comes back and you encounter it, *every* time, again...

btw, what do you mean by every time? do you mean every time you logged into BC?..or once every day?..

Another thing kwun, in our previous software, I can easily search for our Bcers' last post.

Now, I cannot find a BCer's last post. It just informs me which thread a BCer's last post was made (not directing me to his/her last post).
