Well,
Even after turning everything off...this forum is still a bear. It takes anywhere from 20 seconds to 2 minutes for the next window to open, and half of the time I either get a server busy error or a 404 error. To tell you the truth, I am uncertain if turning all the bells and whistles off did anything?
Hope a fix is found soon.
Later!

I am going to miss these boards. Sure I'll pop in few months down the road to see if it's all been straightened-out but in the meantime this will free up a spot for one of the chosen "200" posters.
I dare say no one likes frustration and that's what using this messageboard, as it is now, results in.
"Hey! Doc it hurts when I do this."
"Well don't do that!"
-That is all.

Urgh.
Its now 14h40, and I've been trying to reach anything from this site since about 10h00. The whole enworld.org domain didn't seem to be working, for me. I could reach the frontpage as d20reviews.com, but nothing beyond that.

No Improvement
Shutting off all the bells and whistles hasn't improved anything on my end. If anything, the boards have become slower as a result. In general it's taking me more than 10 times as long to load a page as last week.
Around 2pm ET it would take more than 5 minutes to load a page, and I have better than a T1 connection.
I agree with some of the others above, the problem doesn't seem to be all the features.

Could you let us know if we know what the biggest issue is here? Is the server just overtaxed, or does it need more memory, more bandwidth, etc? We'd love to know at what stage of the investigation-implementation axis the issues are...

I should re-iterate. I was having problems accessing the *whole* domain, not just the message boards. Timeouts like crazy. If I get through to the front page, then there may or may not be problems with the boards being at the user limit.
I don't think lifting that 200 limit would be wise until you figure out what's choking your server so much.

I've never experienced any slowdown of the boards and I'm on a 56k modem.
Loads superfast compared to the old boards.
Now, reading the boards without sigs is really, really uncomfortable. I reconise a lot of people here only by their sigs and/or avatars (I'm bad with names, I can't possibly know 'em all).
The board feels somewhat... neutered.
