Think it's loading ads in the background. Been appalling for a while now

It probably feels at home with most of what's posted.

Bettered only by the crap on the field.

You're constantly bombarded with SPAM Ads all the time... it's absolutely awful. needs some maintenance.

Agree with the above. It is terrible and the reason the number of posts are down.

RLFANS was good back in the day but the format and inundation with ads has been dreadful for sometime. I can't see how this helps attract new members. And the subscription rates are pretty high for a service that tends to be free for internet message boards on other subjects. I appreciate there are financial and moderator time considerations, but I would personally prefer a straightforward forum without ads like Redvee (worth looking at right now if you miss the 'Smith out' debates).

Twitter and Facebook have been eroding people away from this site for a decade now. It's on it's last legs IMO

I hate discussing RL of FB.... so many idiotic small minded numpties on there.. shocking.

Same. Twitter is the same. Just look at the reaction of some fans to the news that Wigan and Warrington are going to play in LV.

Yep. Laughable. And it's the reason the game over here is struggling with mentality like that

The Leeds FB page comments sections is hilarious but not in a good way!

This site needs fixing though, its becoming unusable - its as bad as the syndicate News sites like LeedsLive YEP etc

Agreed the site most days is unusable.

Agree, the site is virtually unusable. You cannot quote other posts half the time, or when you do post, it doesn't look like it has posted, so click submit again, and end up with multiple posts. Even using Brave as the browser, which reduces the Ads, it doesn't prevent the issues mentioned above

Sorry that you are experiencing issues and we are aware of them and looking for solutions but you have to remember that the site is run and maintained by volunteers. The issues seem to be with our hosts on occasion and at times the site can be much faster.

Could we suggest that you try a couple of things;
1. Try a different browser if you can, Edge and Firefox (and I guess others) seem faster than Chrome.
2. While we are trying to solve the issues take an ad-free membership for a month or two (option in the banner at the top of the page).

We are in the process of a full site re-write but this takes a lot of resources, we are also looking at options to remove some adverts or at least speed up the loading. Without adverts or memberships then the site would not exist as our out of pocket expenses on hosting, software and insurance would mean that we would have to close the site down.

Please bear with us, we are working on improving the site.

mine improved with samsung browser. not perfect but better
