Hi Everyone,
We are aware of the lag, I totally understand it's a bummer!
I have looked into upgrading our host plan to double our CPU and RAM (which is not an issue for our funds).
In order to make this upgrade possible I have to take the proper precautions and back up site files (which will take some time).
There will also be some downtime (if everything runs smoothly, approximately no longer than an hour).
I apologize for not coming to the community sooner with this update as plans have not been set for the upgrade and once those plans were in place we would release them as so with adequate notice.

UPDATE AUGUST 1ST 9:45 PM VOLTRA TIME:
Good news! The upgrade to our website server went smoothly! We have doubled our available CPU and RAM. Allowing the website to execute requests and connections that much faster. You may still encounter some lag due to high traffic, but it shouldn't negatively impact your experience nearly as much as prior to the update.
Here are some graphs to visualize what this upgrade improved with connections and lag time.
