So I've been using this website that loads terribly and after sending the dev some emails on how he should reduce the amount of page requests to reduce the load time, I got this response. Anyone with moodle experience care to explain why one should have 200+ css requests before a page loads?

    You have to 'bare' with him.

    Lol just merge and mimify those css files if nothing better.

    @TktStatusPICNIC I've sent the rockstar video tutorial in how to use grunt. Told him that he has to minify and concat the css and even sent him stack overflows with php scripts to do it for him. In the previous email I even asked if I could fork him and do it myself. I guess I just have to 'bare' with him

    @TktStatusPICNIC I'm leaning more to the arrogant jack hole side. Hehe.
    The site is mycollsonline.com

    @TktStatusPICNIC I guess my only justification is my frustration with having to deal a lot with the site, adding content to the moodle platform but I'm gonna give this guy a break cause there are loads of bugs on the site that he has to deal with too. I wouldn't want that job. I love this community. Would be cool if we could add friends on here.

    @chzbgr at least the website looks nice. But holy shit you're right on how long it takes to load

    Dev finally minified the files. From 15seconds down to 4.3seconds.
    Tears of joy.
