At this point in time I honestly presume that these issues are well known to the administrators of the DNN site and the developers of the Forums module and that they are working on their resolution, but just in case, I want to post some comments because since this site was updated to 4.6.2 I have experienced a multitude of problems with the forums.  These problems are not only annoying but they are also really bad PR for DNN.  I wouldn't show this site to a prospective client for fear of long waits for content to refresh, lockups, or error messages.

By the way, I just had an error, about 2:30 EST, that read:

A critical error has occurred.
Value cannot be null. Parameter name: value

Another problem that I think has been documented is the lack of notification emails for responses to posts.

Again, I know these problems will be worked out but please let us know what is going on.  Also, IMHO, these issues should be resolved in this version of DNN before pushing the next version out the door.  There has been a lot of new stuff put out lately by the core and I think its time to just make things stable before continuing with the feature creep in the core.

PS
Please don't tell me how hard the Core Team works, I know that and I also appreciate it.  Don't ask me what I'm going to do to solve the problems either, that is beyond my reach.  I do my part for DNN being an evangelist for it in the trenches and contributing in the forums as time permits.

Not to make this worse but it looks like threads I have posted to break the display for me - has anybody else noticed this? - Rather ones i start i should say

Announce It forum is broken for me in both FF and IE7 although I see other people have been able to post.

Chat About It forum works but format is messed up. I would say that someone knows about this as all the forums were like the Announce It forum a day or so ago.  One other thing I have noticed is that when the total number of visitors gets around 1000 or so you might as well come back some other time because the entire site is going to be unuseably slow.  500 - 800 visitor range seems to work ok although a bit slower than <500 visitors range

I would say there are a couple of issues with new forums module which is ok since it is new - still working on the bugs. The speed issue, however, has been a problem for some time.  Hosting must be a problem.
