It’s not just you. When it peaks I just go do other things.
Happens to me, too. I just go with the flow.
I am having NO problems with Free Republic!
1. Clear your cache 2. restart your modem and computer. see if that helps.
Are you sure it isn’t the Russians? (sorry. someone was going to make this ridiculous comment.)
I have the same problem.
titles vs titles + some body text is a choice on the page.
I’ve noticed this over the last few days too.
Yesterday was bad, but so far today not bad at all.
Same problem here, and I have really fast internet. It has been like this for me since the site went down a few weeks ago.
Okay everybody, listen up.
What’s going on is nothing to joke about.

This issue started when some (broken) hardware was replaced at the server co-location facility.
It started about a week ago when FR had a hardware failure.
I’ve noticed some page load issues since the big outage last weekend.
They may have changed some of the timing tolerances internally.
Sometimes a partial page displays a few lines then pauses then finishes refreshing.
I think FR’s infrastructure is in a large part home grown. It doesn’t work like a lot of the more commercial sites. That’s not a complaint but just an observation. Considering the overall response time and the volume of information and history it’s quite an accomplishment.
That's #RussianHackers to you, Mr. Podesta. /sarc>
Merry Christmas, btw!
It’s all part of the “Skinner Shut-down”.
Hillary lost so all of FReeper-dom must pay!

Yeah the page loading has been a little wonky for a few days.
I presumed it was some sort of a glitch out at the server farm.
Yes, FR has been a little sloggy here also but not bad and the pages eventually load with perhaps a 10-15 second delay.
I can, I think, help you with this: “when I log in, I only see titles”
At the top of the main forum page where there are the three tabs, “Articles,” “Activity,” and “Comments,” you are probably clicked on articles if you’re seeing the article titles. Now note just below those tabs you will see
Brevity: Headers | « Text »
You want to make sure “Text” is selected. Otherwise you will only see the titles. which appears to be one of your complaints.
Free republic working perfectly here.
