If we disagree, it's nothing personal, opinions are opinions.
Antagonizing me to build a false sense of worth is so damn cute.

Brighten your day with science.

First, show are they for you? Good? Bad? Average?


For me they're great, I just wanted to ask though, why is it that other forums like Waypoint are as slow as they are and this is immensely faster in comparison?

Is it because the Waypoint login process is associated with xbox.com and Hotmail?

Bungie.net always loads much faster than slowpoint. Halowaypoint has terrible load times. I don't know how those guys can put up with it.

I broke one of the cords for my X11s because I couldn't get past the final American course in Doritos Crash Course.

Its all pretty good, but that bungie blog - god dayum.

I can't. 90% of the time, it says I have no Windows Live ID, but then it works a few refreshes later...It's so slow when it works though...

Average, especially compared to other sites I visit. Alexa ranks it average as well.

That's not an easy question to answer.

Extremely unlikely.

What would be your best guess on why it is as slow as it is?

Traffic would be a major contributor, I think.

Traffic to the site
Load on their servers.. cpu/mem/disk
Amount of content they're serving on a page
Database response times
Your connection to their site

I'm a stubborn guy. I love to argue my opinion, but unlike others, I'll try to see your side of the problem. I'm a triathlete, with a very heavy empephis on the swimming bit. Also, don't hate on the ~Quinton~ at the end of my posts. Why are you still reading this? #creeper #hashtagcashmoney for hashtaging on Bungie.net

The forums, stats, PMs, and the stuff if the such loads pretty damn quick. But the Bungie Blog, holy nuckin' futs that is bad. I load it on my mobile device and the amount of lag is poo brain.

Man of God. Fan of Bungie. Eater of many Jr. Bacon cheeseburgers.

Mine has been a little slow lately but it's been like that for everywhere else, too. I don't think it's the site.

lol there was a .17% increase over the last month in "Justin Bieber" queries leading to Bnet.

That stats given from that link seem to change every time I refresh the page.

Bungie.net is fast for me, login process is no problem at all either.

Halo Waypoint, on the other hand, is usually a disaster. It sometimes works well, others not so much.

Seeing how Bungie.net is also connected to your Microsoft Account, I doubt that the Waypoint issues are related to that.

Oh yeah, since somebody does not believe what YOU believe; that makes us vapid...
I cannot grasp that what you call "Something happened to nothing, and that nothing became something, and it was smaller than than a period."

It is normally fast for me, unless the Mail Sack has been posted withing the last hour.

In that case it is slow. Slower than the activity of the Community D:
