I've had several reports today about very slow forum performance and some intermittent issues with connecting to the database (which usually manifest as either a totally blank page or an error to the effect of "the database could not be accessed"). I'm still trying to find a fix short of moving FTM onto a new server; I'll be talking to GoDaddy's tech support staff tomorrow, and I hope to have an update some time this weekend.
In the meantime, if you experience severe slowdown, failure to load, or error messages, please post in this thread. If you see any sort of database errors and you can post the exact error you see in this thread when you're able to get back on, that'd be really helpful.
I am working on the problem and hope to get these growing pains fixed.
