Clicking through latest topics, I hit the last comment link, and get "we're lost" errors. Clicking on pages like the last page of the meme thread, same error.
Meanwhile, other "last post by" takes you to the top of the last page of the thread like the person commented then deleted.
Forum updates? Ghost in the machine? Or am I the only one with this issue today?
I've got it , too. Posting is random and delayed. Test: I posted this at 8:43 Eastern

Yeah, something is up. I've had to post multiple times to get one through, and then go back and delete the dupes if they eventually show up.
Right now the title page is showing 3 posts in this thread but only the first is visible in here.
Plus I've gotten 404 errors when submitting posts sometimes.
I'm also seeing a lot of people with duplicate posts, and when I recently tried to reply to a thread I typed in my response, hit "post" and showed me the thread without my response. So maybe it did actually post, and what's happening in the duplicates is people are hitting "back" and trying again?
It took quite some time for the posts in this topic to appear for me, too - for probably half an hour I could see the post count go up, but the only post that was showing in this thread was RevRico's.
Oh, and posting to it also didn't show my post after it allegedly successfully posted.
And neither of the two posts I just made showed up even after shift-reload or command-reload on this here Mac.
Sorry about that, guys. Our devs are working on some caching solutions to speed up site load times, and some forum posts got caught up in that. They're coding away right now to fix that issue and refine the system.

E36 M3... I just posed something in the Bob Costas thread that I was going to edit if it didn't filter. It's going to post on page 2, which isn't working right now, at some unknown time in the future. In case it doesn't filter, sorry Margie!

Took about 8 minutes for this post to show up at my end, my other two are still AWOL.
Good news: The developers put a new caching system in place to make the site faster.
Bad news: It's not gone quite as expected. New posts are taking a few minutes to be cached and displayed once submitted.
They're working on fixing ASAP.
Hey an improvement, I can read past the 6th reply in this thread now.
Just wasn't sure if it was a bizarre device issue or something on your end.
I've been on their end of things. Tell them thanks.
On a side note, there was an OS update for my apple phone (up to something like 14.72 or something) and after the update, things on the site were much more snappy. No real change on the PC
