p.3 #2FM start to get slow again
Not sure if it is related to the specific slowdown issue caused by the likes codes, but I observed that the site speed took a toll by implementing all those commercial/advertisement videos and banners on the site.

Just another reason why I continue to park here on FM. I knew you wouldn't let go of it until an answer was found, Fred. Thanks!

I do not like them, commercial/advertisement videos and banners. They are annoying at best. Maybe they are necessary though?

Yes they are annoying BUT it provides Fred with adverstising income to help better all the "bells and whistles" that make FM.com THE top site on the internet for photography and photography related discourse.
It has come to the point now with me that although they are there, I don't "see" them.

I only see them banners when I get magically forwarded to where they sell adult ladies and stuff or hear them when they say BING.
Some of them quite clever, looking similar to FM real features.

Hope Fred gets some sleep soon

If the banners you see do not seem appropriate, get the URL it takes you to and PM to Fred. He will block that URL from displaying.
He has done it for a few inappropriate banners.
