A goodly number of glitches showing up in normal forums?

Flags are popping in and out that have already been dealt with ("new updates", etc), the "last message" symbol doesn't work as it has been, maybe more.  What is going on?  (The "last post" anomaly seems to come and go, but now the response time has dropped to an abysmally slow speed!)

P. S.  Editing is now landing me on a page saying I've requested an invalid topic?  Is this entire series of anomalous behaviors a byproduct of a very heavy traffic load on the RtO distribution part of the site?

Right now, 6:00 PM CDT, the index pages are dropping scores of new posts in threads that had been included, and now have just disappeared. Where do they all go when that happens?

I get a ton of "requested invalid topic" errors myself, even when trying to read threads I've already posted on.

The forums are dying. Perhaps they're being spammed to death, or billions of people are hitting the servers with game data. Maybe it's people downloading their DLC.

LOL! Now it just happened with this thread. All responses disappeared but the OP. By posting this response, they'll likely all return.

I keep getting "site is down for maintenance or load is very heavy" and popups about "failed to send" or whatever. It's like Bioware unplugged a hard drive just to drive the point home that the forums are in need of maintenance.

The forum just cannot cope with the current load, it's giving users 2-4 hour old cached pages not the current version, or giving out the 'Site down for maintanace or overloaded'.



The latter being most likely, but the invalid thread or page 2 not 3, 22 not 39 is getting silly!



Please look into upgrading the system to cope with the numbers of users!

In the three hours since I updated my thread, bad behavior from the web site has gone from bad to worse, then back to only somewhat bad, but never good. Now, I have seen that this thread is SUPPOSED to contain an additional three comments other than what I have written, but no number of refreshed view ever show me the contents of any additional posts!

Let's see if it will allow an edit (I keep getting "wrong post" for those).  I've seen the other comments finally showing up.

We were having some technical problems with a database yesterday. These problems have now been sorted out.
