Anyone else back to crashing out of BWW?

After the redesign, things went quite smoothly for a while. Then a week or so ago, it started to get gnarly again. And the past few days, i've been freezing up and crashing out of BWW on a regular basis.

Anyone else having issues?

I think the ads and BWW TV are way too memory-intensive. They try to load in their data and their scripts all at the same time as a "first load" command and crash everything. Just a guess.

That's why I use an ad-block. I know it's their site and they need the revenue and all, but it's a programming nightmare.

I miss the days when the search worked properly. And when you could block people.

I crashed out twice yesterday. Though I do like seeing that Goggle Chrome perplexed crazy face from time to time! Thanks BWW!

Do you use an ad-blocker? That really helps to quell the background nonsense, I've found.

I haven't crashed out. Yet.

However, I can't seem to edit any of my posts which annoys the hell out of me.

I can't log in on my Blackberry now; no way I can get to settings on it.

It's also tedious having to scroll through all the sidebar junk and the names of every country in the world before I can read anything.

It's happened to me on both my Macs and my desktop PC. The weird part is that everything was so much faster and smoother after the redesign. Then it all clogged down again.

I have a pop-up blocker that works just fine with Safari, but I'm not using an ad blocker. I guess I should now.

Crashed again on my iMac. The "crash report" said Flash playback issue. Such a pain.
