How has this site loaded for you lately?
Another week, another new poll ... This new poll is rather easy, and will prove to be very helpful to the staff and I in the next few weeks.
We have been getting emails about how the site has been sluggish as of late, and we need to know from you regular visitors how it loads for you personally... this will help us ascertain if OTS.Net is once again outgrowing the server. So consider this a survey rather than a poll 
So, how has OTS.net loaded for you in the past few weeks? Please be kind to include how fast your connection is

Sometimes it doesn't load at all or I get a "server too busy" error.
I'm on a T1 or T3 or something

Is it just me, or does it feel like this site would be loading faster if I was yelling "1011010011010101", into a cup/string phone?

It has been slow, but nothing that I can't stand. Some days are worse then others, but it doesn't seem that bad yet.
I am on cable

Some days are better than others, but for the most part, load times are fast and consistent on my Satellite connection.

Loads fine for me, never had the "server to busy" error on this site either. I'm on a 4Mbit/128Kbit cable connection. I probably visit at other times than most people though.
