You don't have anything to complain about until you use Safari.

Internet Explorer loads Newgrounds really laggy on mine, and everything looks all fucked up, it looks a lot more clean and runs faster for me on Firefox, so it must differ for everyone.

Lag issues are not due to different browsers but due to low connection speed.

Well, you're so mad about NG being worse with FF, why not simply get Internet Explorer? Use Firefox with all the stuff except NG, and use IE with NG only. I, personally, use IE for everything, and it works just fine.

No, lag can be induced by the amount of toolbars and extensions installed on the broweser as well, not to mention other things such as a firewall blocking certain processes which are being run on the browser, then you get stuff like the browser might be trying to run other processes which eats up memory, and as far as I know this stuff usually all happens on IE, with all its toolbars and such.

Low connection speed would affect all browsers anyway, he stated clearly that IE works fine and Firefox doesn't.

I have Avant Browser, which is basically the same as IE but way better, and there are things I cannot do with it that Firefox can. So, I'll keep using Fx, kthx.

Could be just me (or, just you), but for me they show up instantly. ok, they take a while to load, but probably none longer than with IE.

3. BBS- The huge error where it would take forever to type, with IE it types instantly, no hodlup!!

I'm typing this on notepad. Then cut+pasting it on the message post. Yeah, that bad.

Anyway, don't know about the other two (Scrolling works fine, though). But won't be giving up Firefox anytime soon.

If NG is more IE friendly, it is probably because most traffic coming in is on IE..

1. Uploading- Uploading images taks a long time, and you have to restart your computer for the images to appear, IE does it INSTANTLY

i think your internet connection is too slow maybe


2. Scrolling- It scrolls twice as fast

control panel mouse properties set dcrolling speeds there


3. BBS- The huge error where it would take forever to type, with IE it types instantly, no hodlup!!

wait ultil the page loads then start typing


4. Page loading- It SSOOOOO much faster

as i said before get a faster internet connection, or go to a friends


As much as I hate to say it, IE is better for newgrounds.

i don't really like firefox, i have found that on other websites the links have been demented

Newgrounds more IE freindly

I'm not using this account any more.
