I'm finishing up a full status update for posting tomorrow including information on the site performance issues that have plagued us the last month and a half, the ongoing Drupal 7 upgrade work (with new app directory and localization support), SourceForge downtime and 1.9/2.0 Beta 6 Platform delay. And don't worry, I won't go promising any release dates that will be missed this time.

I'll be posting it in the AM NY time. Until then...

Site Speed Improved

Just wanted to let everyone know that we've tweaked the site configuration a bit to improve performance, especially for logged-in users. We've disabled live stats so we lose the ability internally to monitor popular pages and site traffic in real time directly. Publicly, the only thing we lose is the site stats tracked on the forum page showing how many people are currently using the site.

This should improve site speed for guests and dramatically improve site speed for logged in users. It should also eliminate the 'site overloaded' message showing during the day.

Duplicate Account Creation

As detailed in the forum guidelines, creating additional accounts is not permitted:

One Account Per Person - Only one account per person, please. Sometimes on forum sites, people create secondary accounts to flame other people or to post a second message to their own topic, making it seem like there is more interest or agreement with their point of view. If your account is blocked for abuse, you may not create another one. Accounts may not be shared.
