iOceanus Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Hey guys, I recently added the "Adblock Plus" to chrome so that I could browse through neopets faster. Ironically, the site is now incredibly slower. When I say incredibly, I mean each page takes a minimum of 5 minutes to load. Help would be appreciated, but nothing along the lines of switching to a new browser please. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebecca~ Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Hmm. :/ I have Chome and Adblock Plus, and I haven't noticed it being terribly slow. Have you emptied your cache and cookies and everything recently? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xepha Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 I don't think it's related to installing the ad-on. Why? Well for one thing I'm a premium member so I shouldn't be getting lag from ads. But I have an adblocker anyway. And some areas of the site (userlookups being one) are taking forever to load and I'm not on chrome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've noticed the same thing -- certain pages (user lookups, expellibox) just aren't loading. Maybe they'd load if they left them, but if they're not up within like 10 seconds I just get impatient and don't bother trying to load the page, lol. Might be an issue with the site itself?

I've seen the Red Pteri of Doom quite a bit this morning -- they must be having some issues. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iOceanus Posted April 28, 2012 Author Share Posted April 28, 2012 Thank you guys for posting! I just tried to get on right now, hours later, and it seems to be working for the time being...I guess it was just being dumb -.- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moni_rawr Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 It may just have to deal with the issues that Neopets has been having. I've been using ABP for quite some time now (on Chrome) and have never had any issues with Neopets going slower. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
