Net Code Work?

I am NOT a programmer by any stretch. I am also stuck with crappiest ISP (Mediacomm) I have yet to use. With that said, traversing your website is quite painful...
I use Firefox, mainly, but also make use of Opera when Firefox fails me when surfing. What gets me wondering about your netcode is as follows:
- It takes an inordinately long time to open your site
- surfing your categories
- opening your threads
- and using the "emotes" on a post may take between 10-30 seconds.
My usual practice is to make use of tabs. I'll open a tab for the areas (The Pub, General Gaming, PC Gaming, and such) I want to visit and then open individual topics in that tab. Lately, I'll go to opening a tab for individual topics simply so I can see if it has NO communication from your site for more than a few seconds, which happens all too often.
I realize that you want us to spend time here, but are you making your site act this way? It really is NOT fun clicking a link and waiting... and waiting.... and waiting... and waiting for MMORPG.com to respond. The same with an emoji that takes 20 seconds to tell me "something went wrong."
I don't know if this is just my experience, or even if it has anything to do your netcode, or how you communicate with other PCs. Is this fixable?

Personally the only modern MMORPG trend that annoys me is the idea that MMOs need to be designed in a way to attract people who don't actually like MMOs. Which to me makes about as much sense as someone trying to figure out a way to get vegetarians to eat at their steakhouse.- FARGIN_WAR
