Why are the boards down?

Why are the boards down?
The boards are suspended so no changes are made to the site during the update – this helps the update process happen much faster.
Will I be able to post again after the boards come up in the morning?
Ideally, we'd like you to wait to post for a few hours after the boards go live, say, waiting until 8 or 9am EST. That said, you should be able to post again as soon as the boards are live again at 5 am EST. However, please be advised that if you do post that early, your post may not be captured fully.
The boards look exactly the same as they did before. What really changed?
You’re right – the boards are the same. What changed is how responsive the site will be. We upgraded our server so that the site will be faster and there will be fewer hang-ups when you click on links, especially on the weekends when traffic is high.
