I can at least attest to the new forum certainly keeping me away. The moderation team is still doing a fantastic job but site administration's a bunch of clowns. It's been almost a month since the update and aside from a few immediate fixes and adjustments nothing much else has changed.
-PM's are still broken
-Padding is still an issue
-Avatars were broken/lost
-Navigation is in many places still a mystery
-Member locations still don't work
-We've had a site-wide outage resulting in a loss of data ON A CLOUD SERVICE
-An uptick in spam
So far it's been who, Erik specifically who has been mouth piecing what's going on behind the scenes while the server shoulders away? I can see why MaxTheRabbit, tipc and others who wish not to be named have some really venomous things to say (I'm not even anonymously quoting them because they're mean and directly attack several people by name) about how badly this has dragged out with absolutely no admission that yes, the upgrade was not tested at all. It was thrown at the database and people hoped it would stick. It didn't and now you got a mess that's even less appealing than the likes of Discord servers that have been sucking up all the talent into an unarchivable void.
Do you want another forum that evaporates into Discord? This is how you do it.
