Neopets Lag Issues

I've been experiencing strange lag issues for a while on neopets and I'm absolutely clueless as to what's been causing it. I initially thought it was a computer or internet connection related issue but seeing how it only occurs on Neopets.com, I don't think that's the problem. We just had our connection upgraded and a brand new modem installed, yet no improvement at all. Now, what I mean by "lag" is that I click and it seems like the page is going to load... but it just doesn't. The progress bar doesn't move and it eventually leads to an error page. If I hit back and try again, all is well. If I click again while it's "stuck", it will go through normally. While it may seem like a mild inconvenience at best, the "lag" becomes a serious problem when restocking from main shops, namely the Magic Shop. While the lag can be easily fixed anywhere else with a second click, when it comes to the Magic Shop the lag evolves into pure evil. Every time it looks like I just successfully restocked myself a potion, it freezes for several seconds before finally processing and, obviously, it's already too late. If I didn't get the potion, it takes me to the "nope, not quick enough" screen right away. I thought it may just be unlucky timing at first but seeing how it does it every single time... I don't call this bad luck anymore. Ever since this lag issue showed up, I have been unable to restock anything from the magic shop due to this freezing issue, and that's by far the last shop I wanted to be banned from =( I really want to be able to restock from the Magic Shop again and so I turn to you, NeoMallers community, in hopes that someone here has an idea as to what's going on. Why has neopets been so laggy lately for me? Why does the problem worsen in the magic shop? How can I fix it? What is the secret of the caramilk? Thank you for reading =)

Is it just me, or is neo lagging? I know they're working on something because the censors went out. I screenied a ripe topic before it disappeared.

[font=verdana]Yes, it was lagging. People on the Altador Cup boards were all like "OMGz miy scorezzz dontt seeendsz." I'm exaggerating but you know what I mean.

Yeah, it's lagging quite a bit. Earlier today there were a few boards up on the HC about it. Also, last night a lot of the coding was screwed up for about 20 minutes, (mainly mall banners) so TNT is probably messing with the coding again. =/

I haven't noticed any unusual lag today. Why am I lagging when no one else is and doing fine when it's supposed to be laggy? Computers are evil, I think mine is possessed. These things aren't supposed to suddenly come to life and spout profanities in the middle of the night, right? ..::Cerbie's Collectables::.. http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=cerberus_neo

I have been experiencing terrible site lag. From clicking on links to sending neomails. You name it, it lags on me. It usually is not this way, I have a very fast connection and all my other sites are working just fine. Its just been the last week or so that its been laggy.

the only lags that I seem to have are later in the evening, I find that the search engine is slow. SO I just type usernames in on my lookup url. seems easier and quicker. Check out Hik's books? http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=htieki

[color=gray] Oh sorry Guys. I wrote a program that crashed 3/4 of Neopets's servers *lol* It's probably because of the server downgrade a while ago that took the site down for a day.[/color] --- [color=blue] From the land where Funny is a smell and Peachy is an emotion... [/color]

Is it still lagging or is it just me? Using shop wizard or certain things it takes forever to load. My Shop: http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=desmater

I'm getting massive lag too...shop wiz and my shop are killing me. Boards seem to load fine - I went straight to the TNT board to see if they noticed the lag problem, but of course not.

Yeah using shop wizard and the shop take forever. Auctions is ok, boards, and others are fine. My Shop: http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=desmater
