I've been a member since 2003 and during this time the forum has had many ups and downs, but the last couple of years has been a real challenge. Many times the forum has been inaccessible for one reason or another which IMHO has been a detriment to both members new and old.
In my opinion if this trend continues this forum will no longer be viable. That would be a shame as there are many good and knowledgeable members many of whom no longer contribute, in my opinion, due to lack of consistency.
Hopefully, this forum will take a new direction.
In that vein, is there an answer to why after a day or two one has to search to find threads? This is the only forum I visit where this is a problem.
