    I wasn't sure if this was something to put in Troubleshooting and Questions as it isn't related to the game itself but I noticed that this website can be rather slow with loading and input, even with good internet.

    So I want to ask if anyone else has noticed this, knows why, knows a solution (if there is one), or if it's just a problem on my end.

    Also I don't know if BeamNG hosts their own, but it could be that thy don't exactly have the server resources of the normal hosting megaliths. (media companies / tech companies)

    They aren't hosting themselves, beamng.com is hosted by Hetzner (Germany) as far as I can tell.
    I haven't noticed BeamNG being slower, than other websites.

    I notice the forum can be quite slow sometimes, but I think that's understandable given the very large size of some of the attachments being added.

    also when downloading via the game itself, as its popularity grew I realized the speeds going down, its not slow as in 2kb/s but its not my speed. in off peak hours I see a spike in download speeds
