The forums were moved this morning from Florida to Texas. Downtime was about 1 & 1/2 hours.
The old webserver is re-directing traffic to the new webserver until DNS propogates across the internet and so the forums should load slightly slower the first time you enter them. DNS propogation should take about two days to complete.
The new servers are about four times more powerful than the old and each have 1 gigabyte of ram which should also increase speed especially during heavy traffic periods.
One of the benefits of the new webserver is that all pages are now compressed before they are sent to your browser resulting in a substantial increase in bandwidth and load times. See the link below for the increase on the support forums main page. (You will need to copy and paste it to your browser)

Emailing members from the forum admin area has been changed so that the email now appears to come from the forum owner instead of abuse@forumco.com
We hope that the new servers will provide increased performance, reliability and stability.
