Mb/s
Don’t ask me mate. Holland seems to be full of dieselgate-scammy ISPs. When I’m downloading something, I rarely get over 5mbps, it’s an occasion if I crack 10, but in speedtests it always gets 40. 
try to use vpn??
The last time I had this much loading, I was playing Sonic '06.
The forum is working fine for me now, I could even upload my new car.
It’s still not stable for me. In the morning it was working quite fast, all of a sudden now I’m getting loading times longer than… yeah, it’s long.
This should work as a work around for the time being:
http://discourse.automationgame.com:8000/Basically, discourse forums runs it’s own web server. Our server also runs apache2 for running the front page and the old forums. I then use apache’s ProxyPass to pass all :80 web traffic to discourse’s :8000 transparently. This appears to be where the hold up is. A bit of googling does bring up lots of people have issues with this configuration in general (not just discourse, but this transparent passing connections through, and a many second delay on initial connection). And lots of people have issues nailing it down.
So for the time being, put :8000 after the .com and it should be nice and speedy.

@zeussy 
that made it inaccessible for me. All other ports other than 80 are rejected as either unsafe, or in the case of port 8000, taking too long to respond.
EDIT: TIL that the Automation game website was hosted in Canada. Hmm 
Weird, it’s working for me and the forum is pretty snappy
Very strange, what setup do you have that rejects port 8000?
I don’t know anything about this stuff, but I did a TCP Port Scan that showed only port 80 and 8000 were open and usable, after clicking on your click to that 8000 port, I just get a message that tells me it’s taking too long to respond. I am at school, maybe the admins here have set something up… that doesn’t seem like it to me, if you put up a ProxyPass to 8000 anyway the dress and port should not be new to the network.
I know my internet is working, my AV has never blocked any website like this. I’m also not using a proxy server (as far as I know)
I went to school now and am able to confirm that my school blocks connections on port 8000, the regular site still works tho
I came home and the 8000 port does work snappy and fine
Port 8000 works much faster for me now; like the site used to work before about a week or so ago.
@ramthecowy, @cpufreak101 Does http://portquiz.net:8080/ work for you at school. Port 8080 is a common secondary port used. But it is used by proxies so maybe blocked. Just trying to find the best temporary work around.

@zeussy No, strangely enough that doesn’t work either. You know what’s really really weird? Certain ports are blocked but - I kid you not - NSFW websites (you know) are fully accessible. Port 80 does work, sometimes, the website itself is just slow, but I can live with it. At home the snappy port 8000 works. So don’t worry about me, I’ll live with it.
Also I heard you fixed the CPU load bug, big 
for that!

Also doesn’t work here. Though like Ram said it’s 100% ok at home, only at school
@zeussy
Port 8000 no longer works for me; it gives me a time out. It was working fine yesterday. Anything change?
