I noticed this week the site loads really slowly unless I log in. Wonder why that is? Instead of being able to just click once on a category or thread etc. now have to double click or triple click etc. to get a page to load. I searched for loading issues on the site but nothing came up. It was too slow to actually load any answers. And when it did search only returned answers about the game loading slowly.
But if I log in and keep my cookies then it's faster. But this didn't used to be the case when just surfing through the site. So, is it maintenance, or some ad buried somewhere or what that is making the site very slow (and must click several times) to load a page etc.?

You could try turning off any addons like adblockers and update Java etc........
I added EA to my list of trusted sites.
If all else fails I turn off my modem/router and laptop, leave it for a bit and try again.
I always do a bit of Google or Bing checking online to see if anyone else has the same problem as well. It probably isn't EA's fault but your OS or search engine. (my experience anyway).
I think the site should continue to support IE 11 until at least MS stops supporting it and Windows 7. 2020.
I used to use a Favorite url to get to the main Forum page but that seems to have changed so I have saved the new one to Favs. and hope that gets me straight in.
I wish you luck.
If you do see issues with loading times with different browsers as well, please let me know.
Thanks,

(PS: personal opinion only. I think M sabotaged it deliberately).
I have all the major browsers installed, but I usually revert to Opera or Chrome for most of my browsing needs
