Really, it's really slow these days.

It does seem that way, but I haven't been here enough to know for sure.

It's a bit slow for me at times.

I've also noticed that it's a little on the slow side.

Are you referring to the load time of the site or the rate that content is added? Because the load times haven't changed for me, and I'm not really on the site enough to notice whether the rate of new posts has changed up or down.

Definitely the content added. I know it's not my computer acting up, because I just defragmented it.

I agree that the influx of content has been rather slow lately. I would make new threads, but everything I want to talk about has already been covered in other threads, either currently or in the past.

I've definitely noticed the same thing, both quantity and quality - I just naturally find myself posting less in reponse...

I've also noticed those two things. The posts have slowed down and the threads that are started change over time. I understand that there are over 55,000 of us here and that everybody in my WP family is different. I've also noticed that more of us are clashing with each other, because everybody has such a different opinion about everything. I'm glad that we all have different opinions. If we were all the same, WP would be a boring place to come.

Maybe content slowed down because I wasn't here

Nah, I don't think any one member could make such a difference anyway, but I have noticed it also.
I also agree with CR.

Are we talking about page load speed or the stagnant quality of posting lately?

I find myself posting less in response as well, although we have over 56k (not counting the spammer bots on here) members. Maybe everyone's just really busy.

Stagnant quality. The page loading speed is fine as it is. (Even for my computer

)
