Been saying destroy that homepage forever now. But that’s illunatics heart and soul so he’ll say no
Fuck his heart and soul.
Give the people what they want. Homepage is wack. No one manages the shit and updates current information. It looks extremely tacky because it isn't updated. And I'm sure it definitely slows the site down.
zunto is wrong, homepage is no more soon.

ive hardly ever gone to the homepage and i doubt i ever will. the forum is where the excitement is... Its how ive known the site and its how i will forever know the site. Although i did at one stage try to draw a badass homepage. It was only an image but it would have been badass graff if i had enough inspiration to continue with what i was doing.
Lack of communication and people not wanting what i wanted stopped me from caring.
Havent purposely visited the homepage or used the url in like 10 years prolly lol.
If the homepage is set up right it shouldn't do much, if anything to the speed. It should use HTML/CSS minifyers just like everything else on the site.
But I agree, no use in having something that isn't current. If "new" people are coming here, and go to the homepage first, they might not go any further if they think it's abandoned.
I just tried to go to the homepage and it redirected to the forum immediately, maybe it's already gone.
Would be interesting to see the google analytics of the homepage, if it was set-up.
Ah it was through wordpress. None the less it wasn't enough content that is should have been so slow, I'm guessing it was still wrong. And tbh everything is html or a variation of it.
only the client side, the server side of it will slow shit down, content don't really matter, depends on whats on the back end and your host my dude, doesn't help that RB has a lot of bots hitting it to. I always tell people only use the plugins you need, and don't install a gang of shit that you don't even need lol.
Definitely. Wordpress isn't exactly my forte, but the limited experience I have with issues around it is people not cleaning up old/outdated/defunct plugins and shit and just "deactivating" them instead. Plus yeah whoever your host is plays a roll, some of them depending on your package won't do anything with SQL or the likes.
Seems to be running smoother now than it was before so good shit.
