The main page is incredibly slow for me. It takes about 13 seconds to appear, but the main forum page only takes about 1 second to completely load. Why the long loading times? :confused:

same here. Is it just the browser parsing the ****loads of code in the HLP site?

Probably.:sigh:
So as through a glass, and darkly
The age long strife I see
Where I fought in many guises,
Many names, but always me.

There are only 10 types of people in the world , those that understand binary and those that don't.

It does need some work done on it - but I think we're aware of this. If anyone has any suggestions... well you can view the source code for yourselves so I imagine it'd be helpful if you had any bright ideas for speeding things up.

It's not the HTML code at all, sorry. It's the gazillion SQL querys that the page runs to fetch the content. Styxx needs to go through and optimize all the MySQL query code he wrote to make it more efficient.

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill
