Just wanted to say hi...

unbroken_halo mentioned this comm to me, and I finally got over here to join in. Would be happy to breed or trade with anyone if there's anything you need. My scroll is here

I am really bummed out -- I'm having no luck catching the new Crimsons (which I just found out about last night) just like I had no luck with the last one (thankfully I got 2 from a kind person on the forum). So if anyone wants to trade any CBs for something, please let me know. I used to have amazing Dragon-fu, but not any more!

Welcome to the comm!

I am behind with the new release too, as I was without internet at the time, but I'm already working on it.

I generally use Firefox, and switch Javascript and images off when I'm trying to catch eggs, there's less lag that way.

I just missed that there was a new release until 3 days after they started dropping, and even though I can see the little buggers in the main cave, I am no longer fast enough to nab 'em. *sigh*

I've been trying IE, FF and just downloaded Opera w/ Java and images turned off. (Esp since now if you turn images off in Chrome, there's not even a link on DC which is just plain bizarre) The lag is just unbelievable. It takes like 20 seconds for the page to reload, and clicking on anything is like not clicking it at -- again, a good 10-20 seconds before a tab even opens. I'm totally baffled by it, esp when my connection is fast and my internet speed just fine otherwise.

Argh.

Ok, here's another trick: Click using the middle button on your mouse, that way you don't need to wait for the page to change and then go back when you haven't caught anything. Just keep clicking and refreshing till the end of the drop (or till you get bored) and only then check if you've caught anything. It works for me.

I use a laptop so have a trackpad, and either ctrl/f5 or ctrl/R without checking. I should see if a mouse would work any better. :)

I still don't understand why I'm getting such an incredible lag with my browsers though.
