Down hill and down low.

I rarely, if ever, give a 1 ( I figure it will get swept). If it is a good story, but poorly written, I give it a 3 and tell the author why. Also a 3 if I hate the story/outcome, but it is well written. If it disgusts me, a 2. Otherwise, a 4 or a 5.

One of the really healthy things for me about being on Lit, and AH in particular, is realizing that I’m not a total outlier when it comes to being analy retentive .

It's a wonder the site doesn't crumble under the load of every author obsessively reloading their control panel.

I think the site does sometimes take quite a while to load.

Yeah... the control panel can get really slow sometimes, so slow that my browser frequently gives me a nag message about it, that it's the site's fault. Or, rather, it's something in the code that handles the local display, probably hung-up on fetching data from the server. It crashes the browser every once in a while. What I'm seeing is that the control panel page pings the server frequently if I leave it up but in the background. I've stopped this habit.

The bulk of those slowdowns are probably when intensive tasks ( such as sweeps, toplist updates, cache updates, database maintenance etc. ) are running. Most of them happen after midnight U.S. Eastern time in my experience.
