Love this site, but dislike the forum software

sorry John, but this is the worst forum software of all the forums I am participating in. I am active in a number of forums, so with many more members, like the Physics/astronomy forum, Cosmoquest, with thousands of active members and never have performance problems like here. Problems with private messaging now also. Got a PM from Stotty and no indication from the forum itself as in the old version. Once I looked at the message, found no reply button.

Phil what can I say?

Phil what can I say?

Switch back....?

We can't--it is tied to an admin upgrade we did. But for me it's functioning exactly as before. To be honest a think pm ing is overrated and prefer email. But mine seems to work. Right now I am focused on filming, developing new content, on mobile conversion, on social media marketing. These are challenging times business wise. If I could clone myself I'd let one extra version of myself address this.

Well, will have to live with it. Sometimes response times up to 30 seconds. Sometimes quick, other times it just hangs.

Phil,
Thanks. Sorry we just have not been able to duplicate that error here. I never get it. Neither does Manish. Nor Jeff. Nor Giancarlo. If we get through the next set of challenges maybe we can look at some other software alternative...
