PF does seem a bit slow.

I'm on a 2gb connection so I don't notice it so much at home but if I'm browsing on my communicator (11kbps) it's unusably slow whereas it's just about acceptable on most other sites.

Ive missed nothing. Its free for you to use, if your not happy, vote with your mouse button. Leave... whats the problem with that?

Weve been here many times... the slowdown has been traced to a time.. were looking into it, its not PF itself, weve proved that too... if your not happy in the meantime, plenty other sites to play on, or even, maybe, go try out www.life.com see how you get on with humans and stuff....

Kinda weird how mine works, I'm with NTL who are notoriously slow anyway.

But running a 2meg connetion, some days I get no problems at all, click, couple of seconds open.

Then another night, click and it takes at least 10-15 seconds to load up.

I can't get my head round it

Seems to mainly be slow between 9pm and 11pm... unknown as to why but tests suggest its a fact.

As for folk commenting "All other sites i use are normal"
How many sites do you access in Southern France exactly?

Without that info its a bit like a conversation that goes:
Mr A: "Im sick of teh M25.. its fooking grim at 8am"
Mr B: " Its fine for me"
Mr A: "Do you use the M25 then pal?"
Mr B: "No... i use the M8"
