Yes I'm really new but it didn't work on firefox so I switched to IE and it works now.

Yes I had "Gateway Timeout" but it only happened one time..

Last night and tonight, it's painfully slow.

Yes, me too. I report it every time it gets really bad.

Yes. Engineering is aware of the problem(s). Feel free to continue to report them, ... doesn't hurt. Use the feedback form, .. and give details.

Very slow.

Are you kidding? Ever since I've been a member of DS the whole site has been slow. DS is slower then most other sites on the net, I think the cause of this is there is not enough servers to handle the load. But yes there are times in cases where the site is extremely slow and your waiting 2 minutes for a page to load. Or it doesn't load at all and you get the error page like you were talking about.

I've also had times where I went to post a personal message, but DS lost the last quarter of my message and meshed my message up with the reply to person's message in the same message body. I am like, WTF? DS so needs more servers to handle the load, and it could use more internet bandwith as well.

Oh an the mobile app would be nice to top it off, then everything will be perfect. :)

I've been having problems since Thursday, but tonight is the worst it has ever been.

AAAAAAHHHHHHHH yes. Me too.

It is slower than ever. Oh, and is anyone else sick of the psoriasis pictures? Gross blown up to that size. Change ads to things more pleasant. Perhaps DS could use an ad for one of the newer antidepressants that has lots of nasty/lethal side effects. Just kidding.

Hahahaha-that's SO funny!!!! I was thinking the same thing Heather!! I
only ever use my Smartphone for the internet now and STILL that picture is as ugly and big as ever!! Lol The site seems to be just a little bit better now but this morning it was taking a good 3 minutes for a page to load or I was getting an error message.

Slow slow slow slow slow........... and irritating.. I get the Gateway Timeout thing too.. I figured it was a ' DS' thing and not just me. Happens from time to time. *sigh*

I wasn't able to access the direct link to the depression forum for 5 hours today! Something has to be done cause DS is becoming BS. Also I agree with what has been said about the adds, they are abnormally obtrusive. And to top it off, I too do not like seeing desgusting skin condition pictures and 3/4 naked ladies.

Get a hold on this DS, please for our sake!

Well said!
