Forums go Boom every time I try to post!

Has anyone else been having this problem lately? At least half the time I try to post, the forums go Boom and my post is eaten. And it's periodic; for example, I've tried to post something like 5 times in the past 10 minutes but it won't work. But I posted something earlier in the day and it worked just fine, but the day before I couldn't post anything either.

Also, if this post works, I will cry.

If it's any help to the SD folks working on this, I've noticed that "Forums Go Boom" regularly start happening after midnight pacific time (to the point at which that there's a 95% chance I'll get one when I post, and ~50% chance I'll get one when I try to view something).

We've tried a few things to make the database happier.  Please let me know if you continue to see "forum go boom" errors and, if so, what time you tried to post.

It does seem to be working better now. Thanks for the effort, SD.

I haven't had one for the last two days, so something seems to have worked.  I usually received them around 5:30pm GMT+10.

edit: It's 5:00pm GMT+10 and I just received one trying to post this.

Perhaps I have been posting at the wrong times, but I haven't had it go boom in a couple days.

Drat! Something went wrong while we were trying to save your changes. Please wait a moment and try again.

The condition of this shitty forum is unacceptable. I have been unable to post a simple answer for 15 times in a row.

So, how much patience with forums and software does Stardock think paying subscribers and customers have to accept ???

Every day I get here and read about how more and more things 'won't happen any time soon' I get more and more angry.

 

Something really has to happen. SOON.

Yeah...I hate to say it but it's painful anymore trying to post anything. I just give up and go somewhere else.

Thanks everyone for the replies.  We're going to try a few more things this week and I'll likely ask again if you see the error.  I'll keep you all informed when we try something again.

I don't think I've ever said "it won't happen anytime soon" in regards to fixing errors.  We are trying our best to resolve it though.
