Tired of seeing the original post on each page of a thread

the slow has nothing to do with this,

They are working on the site but vBulletin had an update that fucked it up , and now they have another fix that is scheduled

As I have noted, we are doing a HUGE TRUMP Style revamp of the site. The forum is last because it's very, very fucked

Over the last few days too, the app server was not working right
 
They updated it, but it is still fucked,

Odds are I will be moving off of vBulletin as it is the problem. When a person searches it jams up the server, and then when another person tries to access the site it gets put behind the search inquiry, and normally what happens is guys are tired of waiting so they hit the button again which jams up the database and slows the whole thing down. With more traffic, comes more slowdown as we have a ton of hardware thrown at the site.

it's a design flaw in vBulletin and pretty much every discussion online regarding forums says, vBulletin 5 is complete shit. So talking with the server guys this weekend to sort this out, we are basically gonna dump vBulletin 5 and go to a completely different system to fix this issue.

I am fully aware of the issues and I am not sitting around just watching, we are being proactive but it takes a bit to plan, and then schedule to minimize the impact, in November I contracted a developer to work on the site. The forum is a completely different matter as nobody wants to touch vB 5
 
It's gonna be slow tonight too, they are updating and installing Xenforo

Plus this is all subject of a Vbulletin update which is what changed and why we started seeing the slowdown

Pointing to forum with 1/4 the use and members is not assisting in any way, especially since we left 4.2 in the dust a long time ago, like 3 years

Vbulletin has issues, that is a known fact

vBulletin has been going down the barrel since it was acquired by Internet brands from Jelsoft and vBulletin 3.8.x is still the most stable version when comparing to vBulletin 4.x and 5.x. When such an old version is the only stable, usable and customizable, there is a need for alternative solutions and so here are 10 best vBulletin alternatives.

Frank, can you just chill? I was just offering data. I absolutely want this forum to work well. I’m NOT talking shit and I offered to help with diagnosing the slowdowns (I have the ability to to do this).
