| Wasn't this MUD upgrade supposed to increase speed ? well, everything is either slower than before or just as damn slow
I don't need highschool-age features for handing out pats-on-backs or flower bouquets
is there a way I can inactivate this newfangled stuff and continue to live my luddite life

| It is faster for me?
What kind of throughput do you get on Speedtest.net - The Global Broadband Speed Test (and what browser are you using?)

The complexity of the pages has, however, increased. Using a poor browser (or poorly setup browser) or a low bandwidth connection may aggravate a problem that was causing mud to seem slow for you in the first place.
There are often some tweaks you can apply to enhance your experience.
