395. The more people there are on a single WiFi network, the slower it is. But if your school has unstable equipment, the IT department there needs to take care of that.

Personally, though, I like my school's cafeteria more than the student lounge because there's more natural light in the cafeteria. /minimized Civ IV for the moment to install some software to take screencaps with since Civ is being weird about screencaps

395. Perhaps one person has a terrible computer that is slowing down the network.

393. It's probably either shoddy equipment or just too many people on at once. Either way, the school and its IT department need to do something about it. A terrible computer does nothing unless they've got boatloads of malware or download huge files while on campus.

392. Which isn't uncommon considering most university libraries are open to the general public, not just students.

391. However, the public usually doesn't go out of its way to visit unless the municipal/county facilities are full, terrible, or nonexistent. (b'-')b

And I took 177 screencaps with Fraps for a Civilization IV Let's Play I plan on starting chronicling tomorrow.

Well, there are more students on during the lunch hours, but they're over in the Cafeteria for the most part. So if anything, it's the IT department, because the internet over in the cafeteria is fine during lunch hours now. It's funny, because the cafeteria internet got better, while the library internet didn't seem to. Idk, I'll have to see the next time I need to study or something.

... I'm typing this whole post while I have no internet. What fun! Luckily, it was just me stupidly pressing F2 or something.

Chrome for some reason likes to spaz or whatever and causes me to double-post (the last three double-posts I made were because of Chrome). I'm on Safari right now see if it'll do the same thing, but now Chrome is strictly going to be for Alts. :V

391. I get that no matter which browser I use, and it's pretty much independent of the computer I use, too.

I don't get it when I'm on firefox back home, and I'm not getting it now on this computer that has IE. But I got it when I was using my Mom's laptop the other day. Sooo yeah, it really depends.

391. I just deal with it. Pain in the neck when I make a typo, though. Then I have to go back to the forum index (or first page of the thread, though that usually takes longer to load) and then back to the last page of the thread just to fix it. Also a pain when I post incomplete ideas like I did just now. Fortunately it didn't do that to me this time.

That wouldn't be the part that'll make me cry. The part that would make me cry is be always having to delete my second post. xD;

Firefox doesn't spaz, but yet it STILL attempts to double post for some reason.
I wish this double posting bug was a priority for the staff to try to fix. >< It's annoying, even for them!

Sooo... it does the 'whatever' part I said for Chrome. I do recall Rukario trying to find the source of the problem a little bit ago. But meh. As long as I have one browser on my laptop that it doesn't to do, I'm okay.

393. I would probably be very annoyed after a while if I always had a second post to delete.

Steve's been looking into which plugin's been causing it. It probably is a top priority, even if it doesn't seem like it from where you're standing.

EDIT: Ninja'd. I also got the "double post" treatment from the server.

392. Maybe you guys have too many add ons with your firefox. Too many can slow down startup and if they're out of date it only adds to the problem.

391. I've got barely any addons, to be quite honest. :\ And, like I said, for me, it's browser and computer independent for the double post issue.

I have no add-ons right now, because the add-ons I would usually have aren't compatible with Firefox 4 yet. Even if Add-ons were the cause... it doesn't explain Chrome and Safari doing it on my laptop. XD;
