ok, so it's not just me..good to know. When did the site change where the page is split down the middle everywhere with ads? I makes reading any of the threads a real PITA.

This is ridiculous..!
Not is this site slower than a dial-up connection but for the last 2 days, I've lost all graphics too. I've never experienced this on any other forum. I can't even upload an image.
Is there something going on with the site? Is is being fixed?

Sad because this site has a lot of useful info. I guess I have to rely on other forums and YouTube until this site is fixed.

Could someone suggest an alternate forum for 4Runners? Which other sites are you guys using. This one has become completely useless.

I wasn't impressed with the other 4Runner forum I found initially. But if enough people want to I can put a sweet 4Runner forum together using Xenforo forum platform with a few forum creators I work with.

I refresh the page and that goes away. Only started recently.

This site was never fast, but recently, yeah, it is way slower. Takes several minutes to load or sometimes doesn't load at all.

I end up going to my local 4Runner FB groups instead. Which is a shame. FB groups are great and all, but it doesn't keep community knowledge in a readily searchable and accessible manner the way a forum does.

Just wiggle your mouse around in circles so it will load a page a little faster.
That's still an improvement on the Commodore 64 this site used originally.

One of our service providers (CDN providers for more technical people) has shut down, causing a bit of a havoc on the site. We are working through it. Please be patient with us. I'll update this thread once I feel everything has been resolved.

Thanks!
