Its been like this for a few weeks. At first I thought it was either my mouse or internet lag (from all the storms O_O), but now i'm pretty sure its the website itself.
I'm sure people are aware of this (if it isn't only me), but the Scrolling (scrolling down the page) is extremely jumpy. I can use the arrow keys to move down or my scroll wheel, and it's the same thing. It isn't my mouse considering it works perfectly on other sites.
Please fix this, it makes using this website extremely annoying

Are you sure it isn't your computer, browser, or a slow connection? Have you ruled all three of those out? I'm not experiencing this
The only thing that I could think of that would cause that would be dynamically loading elements, Flash, and the like, but the only thing we have that does that is the AJAX-based chatroom, and it doesn't load for non-staff.
I guess it could also be the background image, but if it's that, your Internet sucks. Really bad.
Although, some other members have said that the site is running slowly for them. I don't know if they're experiencing the scroll lag like you, though. Is anything else slow or is it just the scrolling?
I have had the same problem as OP since curse took over.
Then that's definitely on your end and not ours. I'd guess it's because of the background we use, which does require more juice than just a black background to keep in place when scrolling.
PlugY for Diablo II allows you to reset skills and stats, transfer items between characters in singleplayer, obtain all ladder runewords and do all Uberquests while offline. It is the only way to do all of the above. Please use it.

I have no problem using my mousewheel or the likes.. But if I'm reading a thread maybe 5/8 down (doesnt really matter where, just an example), and i press the down arrow key, it goes to the max bottom of the page instead of working similar to the down scrolling of the mouse wheel..
Don't know if it's the website, don't really care.. I just try to adjust to using just the mwheel or the page scroll bar to the left to move down the page..
Btw. I use Firefox on Windows 7 64bit. Maybe it's just me, but i try to use then just the mwheel or the scrollbar to the right so it only messes with me when i forget.
(Btw. I'm drunk, so if i repeated things sosorry.)

Oh, and no scrolling problems for me either.
I know its not on my end because I only have the problem on this website. I've tried hundreds of other websites and only notice the problem when here.
What I could normally do with rolling half of the scroll wheel takes likes 7 full rolls. and it isn't my mouse because holding the up and down keys goes just as slow.
Scrolling on facebook, MS word, etc is perfectly fine.
EDIT:
Loading pages on this site is just as fast as it always was...

What happens when you visit other Curse sites? There's a bunch of them at the bottom of the page, click some and try to scroll there.
I've tried almost all the links at the bottom, and all of them are perfectly fine ..
(and yes, it occurs in both browsers)
I find this extremely weird that it only occurs on this website, and i'm the only one that has this problem (or at least notices it)..
but it is very annoying to use this site with this "problem"
to clarify:
-its only on this website
-other websites work find (including curse sites)
- This was tested on internet explorer and chrome with the same results
-When I use the scroll wheel OR the up/down keys, the screen will move very slow, and be very jumpy.
- If i roll my scroll wheel down or up 7 times
(3lines per scroll according to my mouse's settings), after 7 times, it only jumps as far as 1 post, or 4 lines... while jumping around, which seems like lag (but it isn't from my end)

Are you running any other programs at the same time, and, if so, could you tell us how much memory your computer has? Have you tried this on other computers with the same results?
