    I do not have Windows 10 and still find it slow.

    Noticed it was down for "essential maintenance" again this morning. How safe/secure is this system that has our personal details on and no doubt our D/D details for payments?

    Probably fairly safe. It often runs so slowly, any self respecting hacker would give up in disgust.😂

    This has to be the slowest website I have ever used. Probably due to the pictures in member profiles and adverts.

    It has been getting steadily worse this week.

    It’s been appalling tonight. I’m struggling to post just when things get interesting  😋

    On the next tab on my iPad I have the AutoSleepers forum and it comes up immediately when I select it. There is a serious design problem with the Club’s site (and not just CT, the whole website is too slow).

    Nine weeks on and nothing done.

    Eight weeks on since Rowena gave a detailed reply on three fixes for the problem plus a statement of concern, 22/5/18

    "Please be assured that the performance issues are being treated as a priority by our technical teams involved and has been escalated to the highest level." Really!

    There was a lull in the topic through June so maybe the club thought, Oh well, that's it job done.

    Disgraceful that we are expected to put up with this and that's being polite

    I was trying to post at roughly the same time TW. The site wouldn't take any posts. But still the boffins in EG continue to treat us with contempt. How about keeping some promises or maybe just ditching this monstrosity of a website and starting again? I wonder how many people have stopped posting and just given up because of it.

    I would like to know the view of other members about the charge of£ 25 per annum for a service which is not available in all sites. I have asked the club about the problem I have experienced in the Ayr Craige Gardens site which is that the wifi was not available from Monday to Thursday this week . The reply stated that they cannot guarantee that rural sites will be available 100% of the time, the problem was caused by a switch to a new system which took 3 days to rectify. I would also like to advise the responder that the site is in the centre of the city of AYR.

    This thread relates to the speed of the web site itself sadsac. There is another thread running that has recently been resurrected, that discusses the merits of charging for WiFi. It might be best to post your concerns on that thread. LINK HERE

    They may as well accept that putting small  sticking plasters on a serious injury achieves absolutely nothing to fix the original problem.   The CC (CMC)  website has always been poor and by bolting on the Club together add on, they have succeeded in demonstrating the website's many failures.  Removal of the CT bolt on would certainly speed the main site up but there would be howls of protests from posters who live for  the "What are You Doing" thread.

    Since I have given up the hectic lifestyle, I find the leisurely pace of this website quite adequate and relaxing. Refresh a page and it gives me more than enough time to lift my coffee cup and imbibe some of its content.

    Maybe being on fibre helps, and it is slow in comparison to other sites, but certainly not worth popping another Blood Pressure pill over 👍

    Resurrecting an old thread and an even older complaint regarding this sluggish forum site. 

    Is anything ever going to be done or should I carry on avoiding its use as much as possible?

    Odd you should post this today. I was just thinking how fast it was for a change.

    Well that's done it, back to snail mode now.😂

    It is quite fast today here,I had a very interesting conversation with some Kelly Communications (Virgin) engineers last week who were looking for a fault (very low speeds) in our area for their customers,and they were saying it was probably because so many "customers" were now in the area and they still have to and will into the future use BT at some point via their switching stationssurprised

    We are on BT infinity and at certain times of the day and at weekends ours also gets slow undecided

    Hi all, I say credit where it’s due, the performance of this site has improved over the last few weeks.   Don’t know what they have done but something has been tweaked and it is much better and useable now.    What do you think?

    In comparison with the other forum sites I visit this is still the slowest, and that’s at 8am when most honest campers are still asleep.
