*tears out hair*

Oh my GOD, LJ is driving me up the WALL with how slow it is lately!! I'm trying to reply to the comments I've had in my journal lately, and it goes like this:

read comment
click reply
wait forever to get the page to load
write reply
click preview & check spelling
wait forever to get the page to load
check and correct
click post comment
wait forever to get the page to load
rinse repeat.

And that's an easy one. For some replies I want to check back into another specific post/journal/fic/whatever and I have to wait for every page to take endlessly to load even if I'm not interested in that particular page, but I just need it to get from one link to another, because links don't work until the page has come to a 'full and complete stop' [/gratuitous Sheppard quote].

So basically I'm spending most of my time waiting, while gnashing my teeth and muttering 'hurry up you mofo' under my breath.

Oh that you can turn off in your settings, I've had most stuff disabled and forgot that even exists. I looked it up for you - uncheck the relevant boxes at http://www.livejournal.com/manage/settings/

I've adjusted my settings a couple of times (in fact, almost every time lj thinks it necessary to force some new gadget on us, I just change it back to the way it was before) but I'd never noticed that option! It's turned off now *parties* Thanks!!
