after some more navigation in forum i mostly miss the link to jump to last post of a thread.

I really need "Go to the last post" link in the list of threads. Also, marking of 0-replies threads would help a lot.

I like how the new forum is looking. Hopefully the guys will fix the problems soon.

Anyway there is something I want to say about vB in general. vB is probably the most used forum platform for sites with extreme load. Somehow the vb team manage to make the app able to handle heavy usage. However vB is the worst possible system to administer... the admin panel is so 80's with its endless drop downs... templates are mission impossible... even if you pay somebody to theme it for you, the next minor release will most likely brake your site.

Also is a little bit strange how one open source project as extjs is using a commercial platform to handle this board. And one more thing is interesting to me... looking at the way extjs code is written... neat and clean... and comparing with the crazy way of vB being written with its chaotic hooks and etc... I can only conclude that if I was the extjs founder, I wouldn't let this mess in my house that easly

Take care

Can't type in the search box...

Also, the fixed width is not so cool. It's trivial to make dynamic, so it fills the browser...

[jsakalos]

I had it same for a while - refresh the browser cache.

Site is DOG SLOW

I can't really post. It takes about 5 minutes for me to get a page.

Don't know if it's the extjs.com servers or what, but I'm out of it!

It's not related to the forums, we're being hit with a really bad DOS attack. We are working with our provider to try to mitigate it and get things back as best we can.

It's better
