Im not sure if anyone else is having this problem., but this site isn't really running too smoothly as of late

EDIT:

My recommendation until this problem is corrected is to limit your forum usage to 10 minutes at a time and to please only have ONE browser window open/accessing the forums at any given time to permit others to log in as well.

Again we apologize for the inconvenience and hope to have things back up to speed ASAP.**

As announced, the forums has been updated by the administrator, ans as a result there are some teething problems. Please bear with it.

Way to stay on topic....

And this is basically par for the course with any kind of upgrade. Until you actually put it on the server and have people use it, you don't really know what kinda crazy **** is going to show up. Good luck admins getting it running up to speed again, I promise to stop surfing with 10 mozilla tabs.
