The New Forum Software is NOT a deal!

Same here yesterday and today (early afternoon California).  It's really slow.  I'm seeing a lot of  "error 500" notifications (time-out) and other connection errors.   

Edit: Interestingly, I've seen the speed return to normal for a while during the same time of day.

The new softeware is a little better at keeping the spamers at bay. I think maybe the trade-off is when they are trying to get in forcefully, it may slow down as a result of the software keeping the spammer out.

Now this is just my uneducated assumption about how things work based on extensive reading of all kinds of BS I came across!!

Yeah, we got an absolute belting yesterday from spammers-  I was on there for most of the day doing cleanup behind the scenes. The forum software was hiding a good lot of the threads from public view, thankfully, and outright blocking others, so it wouldn't surprise me if the reason we were getting so many 500/502/504 errors was the sheer number of attempts at getting in the door.

This makes sense.  Thank you for your service!
