Am I missing something? I'm on this site daily..way too much than I care to admit actually and I notice very little slowness or downtime. Maybe it's the malware on your system? :p

same here.

once in a great while i notice the forums are slow. but not nearly enough for me to feel the need to rage to another forum.

Anand obviously doesn't give a shit about the forums. The down time and slowness are getting more and more frequent. Before they implode, we should agree on a new place to assemble. Just don't tell alky or brianhulk.
Where should we hang out?

Facebook? ;)

I still have a old test bed forum from 2003 I could...


Holy Shiiiiit! o_O :ninja: I forgot to chmod the forum script back to cold storage after looking at it a couple months ago. It was set to allow guest posts... with pics. Anyone need a bucket of infected porn spam?


Edit: I picked up 2400 new members in the last two months!

I'm mopping up the forum now. People are icky.

oldsbasement.com is already registered and it wasn't me, thank you to whoever just saved me $12 :wub:

I'll stick with my good 'ole neffing.com I just need to find $175 in the couch cushions.

Yes I know phpBB, SMF, MyBB, etc. are free but I want IPB.

I've got ten bucks waiting on Kickstarter for you :awe:

Why did my mind have to automatically create an new index entry for "infected porn?" WHY?!?

The AR15.com General Discussion forum is always entertaining. They could use an influx of computer nerds.

I looked it up and had it in my cart then changed my mind.

I have noticed the forums are running crappy on my phone for the last 60 days or so but I'm not ready to rage quit yet.

Before I came here I used to lurk around extremetech.com forums, I remember there was a guy who used to always go ape sht over the slow forums and down time. He actually did what OP is suggesting started he own forum. I can't remember the name, I think it was mad geeks or something similar. I found it funny that he chose that name being the constantly pissed off guy. I salute that man for doing something that he wanted to get changed.
