Default Forum Broke?

If anyone is checking, the forum is unusable tonight. Two minutes to load a page. Page "done" with nothing there but the top ads, etc. All other internet pages ok, just the forum.

Not only is the site slooooooo, but some pages are too wide for the screen -- you have to slide the entry to the right. What's going on?

You got that right, I just started a thread in the OT section about it, It is very annoying. Such a great site and to have to deal with this. Maybe it is time to find a new host/servers? 7:50 and still slow.

I had somewhat the same thread in OT and they closed it, I guess it is wrong to have a discussion on the matter, I asked the mod why it was closed and haven't gotten a reply as of yet. I guess the truth hurts.
