Early morning, going for a boom...

Trying for 8:06...

Ironic that it failed 3x trying to post this

And to be fair, vStyler's avatar is subtle and isn't annoying.  But I don't want to get into having to judge whether an avatar is "appropriate" or not if it's animated.  It's just easier to say no animated avatars.

My concern isn't just speed, but annoyance.  I don't want to scroll down a page and see avatar after avatar of annoying animations and flashing colors.  Subtle avatars are fine, but we all know everyone won't do a subtle animated avatar.

boom 12:30-1 AM PST

Still haven't had a boom in more than a week.

Try some ex-lax!

Forums on the other hand are still slow as hell.

Great to hear! Now this is a thread about reporting problems, not saying everything is all clear. Unless you're suggesting we are lying sons of bitches. 

The BOOM is an issue of them not honoring our request, the servers don't distinguish between "you" and "me" (oh Moosetek, we like that guy, let's never boom! on him ever!).

It's possible they have multiple webservers and only one breaks, you just happened to get assigned to the "good" webserver (I know similar issues have happened at my work). 

Couldn't access the forum again this morning, it just hung...

Had a boom yesterday, had to restart connection to get back on.

We did a forum update a short while ago and ran into some server problems.  That was the reason for your troubles.  Sorry for the inconvenience.
