Default Refresh this site

Why can't we refresh without waiting five (5) seconds.

I think it is because there is a limit to the number of users who can be on a web page at the same time. That is why some popular websites will sometimes crash.

Good question, my attention span lapses after two seconds and I keep hitting the refresh button and am told I have to wait another 5 seconds. Time is valuable and limited, stop wasting it!

Have two or three windows open at the same time.
Flick between them while refreshing.
Save at least 2–3 seconds.

I'm curious why someone who lives in Orlando is posting, let alone complaining. I'm new to the Villages so not savvy about some things. But other than ads I would think TOTV is for residents. Just sayin' and learnin'. *♀️
