    We're switching up our forum server. It will take a few hours to propogate to everyone.

    It's possible things could break, stuff like appinfo.

    If you notice any problems, please post them here, and we'll fix them as soon as possible.

    Don't know if it's server related, but the thread list on the main page has what appears to be an ad as its background, repeating all the way down.

    Of course it stopped when I went back, but here's what I saw before:

    I'm getting incredibly slow load times on the forum right now, around 30-60 seconds a page. Hopefully just a temporary setback...

    Edit: And the same thing today. Is this a peak time for the server or something? It went back to normal eventually, but around this time it just crawls along.

    Same here. Sometimes the Loading Times are that long that I`m making myself an hot chocolate during those Times to pass them somehow.

    I wonder if this is linked to the server change, but I've found that links to posts with the #post tag no longer take me to the post, but open in a new window.

    Has anything changed with the way internal links work?

    I haven't noticed any other changes so far.

    I'm missing the TouchArcade logo at the top in the Forums area. It appears in Home, Reviews, New Games, and Podcast, though. On a computer with Google Chrome.

    I create awesome paper airplanes that I will sell

    I'm on Internet Explorer currently, and I'm getting pretty much the same thing. Except in place of the logo is a giant dashed-line surrounded box with an X in the top left corner.

    Same on Firefox - been like this half the day today. Also getting a horizontal bar just above the "Add Reply" button and the page selection on every thread.

    I haven't received any emails today for my subscribed threads and there have been posts - any ideas?

    I wasn't sure whether to post here or make a new thread, but I started noticing this when the servers changed.
    Multiple appinfos will not display simultaneously anymore. Only one will show (I think the bottom one usually). It didn't really bother me until today I read two threads where someone had posted appinfo for a different app than the thread's subject further down the page and I couldn't see the info on the app the thread was about. If its an intentional change, maybe make it the first one that appears?
