Same here. Last couple of days have been rough around the edges.

The most common thing is when clicking the Show New Messages link the page loads but then hangs on the Waiting For Results... This has happened in the past, especially when the forums 3.0 were brand new, but its different now in that instead of the accumulating ...'s accumulating ad naseum, they stop after a few and it just sits there not changing.

It doesn't happen all of the time, and usually just clicking the folder name and trying the Show New Messages link again works.

The 500 error is not as common, but its not exactly rare either. Just refreshing the page is usually enough to carry on with my forum browsing.

I'm using Chrome if it makes a difference.

Happening here, too, with Chrome.

I'm not sure how but it's like the boards actually went backward in terms of how effective they are, and that's saying a lot.

Load times? Really?

I've been having a lot of the same issues recently, and was figuring my work computers were just slow, and that I was online at home during peak hours causing lag. Glad to know it's not just me.

>We have some stuff going on in the background (which we'll talk more about later) that MAY be causing it, but I agree, it's getting a little excessive. We'll ask someone to look at it (or whether it will stop after we release what is being worked on).

I'm just happy to hear it's not me, or something I'm doing.

I figure at some point you guys would just knock me off the forums for being a pain/jerk/troll. Heh.
