  • Due to issues with external spam filters, QQ is currently unable to send any mail to Microsoft E-mail addresses. This includes any account at live.com, hotmail.com or msn.com. Signing up to the forum with one of these addresses will result in your verification E-mail never arriving. For best results, please use a different E-mail provider for your QQ address.
  • For prospective new members, a word of warning: don't use common names like Dennis, Simon, or Kenny if you decide to create an account. Spammers have used them all before you and gotten those names flagged in the anti-spam databases. Your account registration will be rejected because of it.
  • Since it has happened MULTIPLE times now, I want to be very clear about this. You do not get to abandon an account and create a new one. You do not get to pass an account to someone else and create a new one. If you do so anyway, you will be banned for creating sockpuppets.
  • Due to the actions of particularly persistent spammers and trolls, we will be banning disposable email addresses from today onward.
  • The rules regarding NSFW links have been updated. See here for details.

Site running abnormally slow

South-east Asian here.

When using PC, on Firefox, I experience longer wait time for pics to load recently.
I never get gray blank screens, but I sometimes get Firefox reload page, but that is simply because of provider and occur often enough for years that I don't see that as a new thing.

When using Android phone, on Firefox, recently the loading bar keeps stalling at 75%ish and the page got cut off.
I also regularly get gray blank screens and Firefox reload page, but that similarly have been happening over the years because of shit provider and wi-fi.

EDIT: Additional data, I don't get these new lags all the time nor very often, just often enough to be worried.

Point in case, I am opening stuff normally in Android phone now and not seeing the loading bar stuck at 75%ish right now.

Every time I open a new page or click a link, it's a gamble of how loading will progress, or if it will finish at all.

My current strategy for browsing QQ is to spam open five new tabs at the same time, and usually at lease one will complete loading in a second, while the rest hang.
 
[Datapoint] Desktop, Firefox : No issues. Site operates smoothly.
[Datapoint] Desktop, Edge (Win11) : No issues. Site operates smoothly.
[Datapoint] Mobile, Chrome : Site white-loads (browser displays site loading as complete, but no content is actually fetched until refreshed. This includes text, images, links, etc. Basically, need to double-tap site nav)

Australian here. Happening to me too on mobile, Chrome browser. White loads occasionally, which sucks as when I refresh it loses where I was up to, but mostly it's just really slow. I read long fics on reader mode, and it can take most of a full minute to load a full fic. Also pictures load really slowly (an image can take a minute or two to load, if it decides not to stop part way through the image).
 
Seems to be getting slower now. Pages loading in pieces and took an hour to jump to a specific Post when I went from the Quote Thread but that was the longest. There was a minor time a few hours ago where it outright disconnected from it taking too long. Phone is doing moderately better but it is still occasionally happening.

I have been dealing with blank pages requieing a refresh for a while, yesterday the picture loading time got ridiculous. It can now take minutes.
I'm on avChrome and mobile.
 
Was having some slow loading for the whole website, is mostly solved but the pics still don't load properly, I'm lucky if they do load. Neither mobile nor pc, multiple browsers at that.
 
I have to also say that im running into issues with the site being slow it was fine for most of the the week but yesterday i started to experiance slow down on the site with it some time taking 5-10 seconds to open a thread sometime and other it opens fine but when i scroll down only have the page i loaded and i have to wait for the rest of the page to load so i can scroll down and see the new comments also it seems like the pics are also being affected since some loaded just fine after clicking on the spoiler tag hiding them and other time when i click on them they take forever to load or i have to refresh the page to see them.
