Chrome's anti-ATS bias?

For those of you familiar with Google Chrome

Whenever i open a new tab it comes up with the google search bar and 6 thumbnail image links of my most visited sites. For some reason despite the fact that ATS is undoubtedly in the top six in page views it is never one of the options. If you hover over each individual image an x pops up in the corner of the image allowing you to remove that page from the choices. I've done this down to point where they where all blank without any ATS page appearing even once.

Has anyone else experienced this?

I use Chrome as well, but the tile appears on start up for me.

The problem I'm having is it takes forever to load, and often I have to stop manually (using the x to the left of the address bar), and in those cases, most of the time then I can't star anyone's posts without a refresh (using the partial circle arrow that replaces the x to the left of the url).

I was wondering if anyone else has trouble with super-slow loading on Chrome.
Maybe Chrome isn't the best browser to use?

Chrome and IE both seem slow to me, I almost never have lag issues like what you are describing with Firefox.

I use chrome and it works fine. Open the new tab and ATS is one of the options.

No problems with Firefox, Palemoon, Waterfox or Opera.
Maybe it's time to reevaluate which browsers are used.

I know some people use more than one browser, as the best experience can vary from site to site, browser to browser.

I just had my ATS thumbnail disappear a couple of days ago without me deleting it. It just showed back up this morning. I've been using Chrome since it came out.

I know google is the enemy but I can't stop using Chrome.


Also, it's not slow loading for me.

Maybe a good long read here, www.abovetopsecret.com...
will help. A good, important thread that got hi-jacked with silliness, maybe anyone who hasn't read this should have a look, and bear in mind what we now know about google and the rest,.... The Guardian.

Well, thanks. That's rather disturbing.
I had the black screen of death a few weeks ago, and they said it was a bad partition, a rare but not unheard of problem.
But the slowness or lag still happens.

i use chrome and have no trouble with loading or using ATS. it also shows up as an option in the new tab window.

sometimes, i'll get new link options after clicking new links a couple of times (or even a handful of times) even tho i click on the main option 1000's of times.
