For those that have been trying to figure out what happened to the forums tonight... We apologize for the outage.

We are in the process of testing our new forum software before it goes live later this week. Check out this thread for all the information:

For the past few days since the beginning of the week, everytime I post, it HANGS. As if it is trying to upload. But it actually uploads the post to the forum as I checked it by opening a new browser. Or after loading the post that feels like cows will finally fly, it finishes if ever. Usually I again check by opening a new browser so I can close the slow uploading post.I have used 2 laptops, 1 desktop. Moreover, I have access to high broadband cable (Cox Communication) using wi-fi. I also have lower cable wi-fi, and access to Fios Verizon High Speed Internet.I know its the forum and not speed related issues. This issue really sucks!

Reminds me of back in the days!

Yup, it's a forum problem. We are working on it.

All I can say is be patient. We have a lot of upgrades to the forums planned and it's taking time to test everything before we go live. It's a real PITA but we'll get there...
