games lagging
iwant to join this site, but with all the trouble i have with the games, i wont. serious lagging, to hte point of making you lose games is not acceptable for a pay site

It is possible that the problem isnt the site. Its possible that it's your pc .Maybe you need a bit more ram:)
i have the same problem, so how much ram do i require to play on this site
Heh well my subscriber status finished the other week so I've been playing the online game a bit and it's possible that adverts could be lagging you up. 

I'm having a problem with some "koi carp screensaver" advert, everytime it loads up it's impossible to play a shot. The game is fine the rest of the time :| 


Well chris could be right in sayin the ads lag up your game however it also depends on what ram you have when i had 512mb it was ok but lagged every few shots now i got 2gb ram and its fine no matter which ad is displayed. My advice new comp :D

those requirements probably haven't been updated for years... and definitely don't take into account the increased memory that today's ads use... though it shouldn't be so significant as to cause huge problems.  anyway, those are just minimums and suggestions... you can play the game most of the time with what you have... but as has been pointed out, a newer, faster computer will make life better ;)
