Since the website has slowed down to a crawl, implement more JS to reduce page loads.

    On mobile Touch, it can take something like five page loads to get to a different forum. Store it as HTML or load it on the fly without doing full page loads.

    If I want to preview this post, it requires a page load, for no reason. Just write some simply JS that fills in a preview box.

    To see the next set page of posts, or next list of topics, I have to do a full page load instead of an endless scroll. I implemented most of an endless scroll here out of boredom one day so I don't see why boards.ie couldn't manage it.

    Reporting a post.. Full page load. Probably about two hundred unnecessary database hits to load a simple report form.

    There are many examples of wasted page loads all across this site which could be gotten rid of with a couple of days of basic JS coding. If my website was crawling, and I had loads of unnecessary page loads, I'd get rid of them. It's been how the web works for over a decade.

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
