Before you answer, be aware of all the definitions of the word 'congress'

Any special definitions in use in WA that the rest of us might not be up to speed with? :lol:

Must be something us oldies are more familiar with as a term, definitely not limited to WA. Melania Trump would probably have one or two things to say about her husband's relationship with the term :lol:

Yeah, I was well aware of that one, just wondered if there was anything else out there... ;)

I hate it, everything scrolls slower, it take ages for each thread to load.

Performance does indeed seem to have taken a substantial hit.

I'm on a fast link here and this thread took 8 seconds to load. In doing so it reorganised the page 4 times when it found out the size of newly loaded elements (mostly ads). This wouldn't be so bad if it did it quickly but it's not - you start reading and then 2 seconds later the page changes. You find your place again and it loads another element, so another page adjustment and you lose your place again.

I know you can turn the infinity scrolling off but I'm willing to persevere. However, scrolling to the top of a thread takes multiple attempts which is annoying.

Where's the link to the Wiki gone?

Oh there it is, was that there before or am I going blind?

Works fine for me, but then I'm using adblock.

No it wasn't. Lots of nagging got something fixed.

Probably the same thing that happened with Who Quoted Me. Was momentarily forgotten about, then magically reappeared when enough people mentioned it.

This is the only way to go.

Hey All

Just an FYI, I use Chrome as my browser and the site is fine, I just did the Win 10 upgrade and used Edge just to see if it was better (it isn't) the formatting is totally effed up in Edge.

*Edit* Hmmm so I fired up my laptop, which has also had the Win10 upgrade, And the site is fine on Edge, further investigation required!!
