Yeah I agree. Now don't take this the wrong way since I do quite appreciate all Dena has done, but the slow loading times, not being able to edit posts and so on is kind of annoying.

As for a server, I was thinking about volunteering my webserver, but...I'm not sure it can handle the extra traffic. I right now have 1 GB with 100 GB of transfer, which sounds pretty sweet, but...I use at least 90% of that just for hosting my Anime Music Videos (no joke..did 17 gigs in a day once). So...just how much space and bandwidth would you require?

I can also point to some pretty good (and cheap) webservers. A friend of mine in the AMV community could get you 300 MB and 20 GB transfer for like 5 bucks..given that would mean we need to donate or do something.

But yeah, I'm for a new forum...a clean one like those for ACen and AMV.org...then again those are PHP which is hard....
