Slow Post Typing

[JustNicole]

It seems like once a message in the windows gets beyond a certain number of characters, the website's ability to process and enter what you are typing on your keyboard slows down dramatically, to the point where I am sitting here waiting for five minutes for the website to finish registering my keyboard clicks on a long post I am writing. Is there a reason this is happening? Some sort of character limit that I am reaching? I have never struggled with such problems before in the past, this has only started occuring since the most recent website changes. For reference, I use Windows 10 Google Chrome with plently of RAM so I am sure such a thing is not the problem.

Other people have said they encounter that also, particularly when using the Night Life theme.  Are you using it?  Have you tried typing long posts in the default theme, and is it still slowed?


I seem to recall someone saying that typing delays are generally on the computer end, not on the site end, but not being a technical person I can't confirm this.  I do use Chrome myself (Win7) and haven't had that problem, but I could just be lucky.

I'm using the standard RPNation theme (not Night Life)

I switched to the Color theme one and it happens to me on this one as well. I also use Chrome. Windows 10.

It happens to me occasionally with the default theme using Google Chrome but only if I have copied and pasted a large amount of text from another thread.  It just might be a software issue.

Yes, it did happen to me when dealing with a large amount of text I copy and pasted from another thread.

My advice for now is to type what you want to type before pasting in anything that comes from a separate source (be it a thread or a word editor).  This way, you can get what you want done much quicker.
