Site has been slow for a Couple Days for me.

Nope. Was just thinking the same thing. "New posts" take around 10 seconds to load.
Extremely.
New Posts takes forever to load. And sometimes it doesn’t.

Still quite slow, like watching molasses flow.
I almost feels like when one of the other forums I frequented changed software to one that was extremely intensive on user datamining.
What’s going on?

Yes, its slow and its not from my service (FIOS) or PC as all other sites load as they should.
I suspect this is on the back end where they are trying to fight denial of service and other attacks....which is good, but a bit frustrating.

When I was an Admin on another forum we could set a user to "Miserable". It would make the site slow and unreliable for them. When a turd would join, we would turn it on to try to run them off. It crossed my mind that I may had been deemed a turd...lol.
So that's why every site I'm a member at loads slowly. Makes sense now.
Also when I saw the thread title I assumed you meant slow as in people weren't posting as much. The title also makes sense to me now.
Yeah, Frank has done that to some in the past (I think he calls it "discourage" mode) but in this case it was wide spread and I'm glad they found the issue and fixed it.
Haha. I figured there was still something like that. The Miserable setting was plugin on OG vBulletin.
When I was a kid I used to be an admin on an extreme sports forum. I forget what the mode was called, but if turned on it would make someone's posts/threads only show up for them or other admins. All the normal members couldn't see them. It would be funny watching them have meltdowns due to them thinking everyone was ignoring them when in reality they couldn't see them.
