Anyone else noticed how slow the other place is getting?
It has a lot less people online than it used to but performance is awful.
Presumably the latest version of vBulletin is less efficient, but it really is not that good nowadays.

I have noticed that also and figured that people are getting tired of the BS. It looks like the near future doesn't look so bright for the other guys.

This seems the land of the Free speech.
Aye.
Free speech as controlled by insane mods.

They are very slow at the moment. I have noticed that too. Not that I use it
very much anymore. The budgetsection is mostly a farce. If someone ask to be
guided to a budget AA light under 15 bucks they at once start to suggest lights
which cost 50$. Stupid!
Cheap quality is good - Expensive crap isn´t
And if you recommend anything truly budget, they delete the entire thread, which happened to me when someone asked for recommendations for 3 lights from DealExtreme.

If you posted that in a German forum, you would be in serious trouble now. You might want to edit your post, before Mr. Admin will do that for you.
I guess at least rule number 2 applies:

Thanks Vectrex, you beat me to it. Could we get this post cleaned up a bit please? Thanks!

Good point.
But the real problem is one super-zealous and unpleasant mod. When one of the other mods is doing it the touch is much lighter. OK, the rules are stupid, but there are ways of enforcing them that have nothing to do with being obnoxious because you can. Wikipedia is equally afflicted with this sort of problem.

I think the mod was put there on purpose by the owner...
