It seems to depend on the forum but it's taken almost three minutes to get to FlyerTalk Community and open a "new message" box.

Other forums are much faster than that (else I'd have lost interest days ago) but sometimes take many, nmany seconds to load.

Others disagreed when I first made such an observation, but I've logged in from home and work at all times of day, and am quite disappointed at the "improvements".

Of course I'm a crass ingrate for complaining about a free service, and a good one at that, but it hasn't stopped me yet. Maybe something will get fixed.
