Is it just me or is the forum being slow?
I've been trying to post this rant for about 5 minutes but stupid interweb wouldn't load the post new thread.
I take it one of our cruel overlords decided to do an update.......
The site was down for maintenance for a little bit yesterday morning, so an update is a good bet. I have not seen any issues from here though.
The site must be run by AT&T. Once you get to 500,000 post they slow your posting speed down.
You still get unlimited post but it will take 5 minutes.
It seems slower to me today, 7.30.11

As far as the cruel overlords know, reply with quote SHOULD be working on anything other than IE6, and I haven't found anything it's not working on, but there's only so far I'll dig...Quote:

Most recently, it looked like the vbulletin code had finally been cleaned up and survived the proxy, but apparently not for ie8 (the only "modern-ish" browser i didn't check). Sorry about that.Quote:
