Q&A Forum Slow Performance
-
The dashboard works great, but the time to get a link to respond in the Q&A forum is painful.
I am on a 15Mb connection and have an SSD hard drive. It is only this site that is slow. Is anyone else experiencing this? Or are you all very patient?

Hi Chris and everyone else,
Thanks for the comments. I noticed some slow response times yesterday. Right now things seem fine from where I am, but I'll drop a note to the developers and have them take a closer look at things and see if we can make sure the slow response times don't happen again.
Thanks!
Keri

Hi Chris yes we used to be hosted 100 percent on Amazon and I'm talking about much the form but the tools everything and now it's a hybrid system so everything runs smoother and much more quickly I'm speaking in general about the entire monster. Not just the forms. I guess there was issue with the hard drives burning out and all sorts of stuff
-
only the forums are slow. The dashboard responds like a Web app should, very responsive.
But clicking on any link in the forum, such as to browse a category is painful. I open another browser and go look at another page on a different monitor while the forum loads.
Not a pretty or fun experience. Hope there is a cure. Thomas mentioned it was worse?
yes, it could be worse than it is. I'm just spoiled now that I'm not on dial up any longer.

I do agree with you man I think that it was though a smart move when they switched hosting from Amazon from what I understand there was quite a bit of trouble with the system there and now that were with I believe wow host we are getting very high-quality uptime and decent service in my opinion. Good things come to the come to those who wait So says Folgers I believe for some commercial

Thomas, I agree that the forum is a great product -but it is pretty slow

Hi Chris are you saying that most of the other sites on the network just fine? And that the only time you're really Experiencing here this when you actually hit the reply button or using Q&A form? If that is the case is most certainly site rather than your connection or your computer set up. Try using it on your smartphone or another device and see what you think. I think that all in all What SEOmoz has created here is much more complex and better then the regular bulletin board so there has to be on more loading time when anyone responds or posts to Q&A there's probably a lot of Java or other stuff going into effect taking up time. But the wait is worth it all the best, Tom

I'm with you Chris - the forum has been slow of late - but the wait is well worth it

403s: Are There Instances Where 403's Are Common & Acceptable?
Hey All, Both MOZ & Webmaster tools have identified 403 errors on an editorial site I work with (using Drupal CMS). I looked into the errors and the pages triggering the 403 are all articles in draft status that are not being indexed. If I am not logged into our drupal and I try to access an article in draft status I get the 403 forbidden error. Are these 403's typical for an editorial site where editors may be trying to access an article in draft status while they are not logged in? Webmaster tools is showing roughly 350 pages with the 'Access Denied' 403 status. Are these harmful to rank? Thanks!

Has SEOMoz considered making it possible to follow a specific Q & A thread via Twitter and/or Email?
I think it would be great if there was a way to follow a particular Q & A thread without having to post a comment. There are so many great topics and discussions in here and sometimes I lose track of some that I'd like to continue following as people post, without having to post in the thread myself. Have you guys (Mozzers) ever considered adding a "Follow this thread on Twitter" or "Follow this thread by email" function? Or is there already a way to do this (without posting), that I just haven't found?

A Simple(ish) Q&A Improvement
Hey Roger, In the posting etiquette it states that users should 'find out if someone has already posted your question before adding it' but we all know that is never really going to happen. So, we tend to see the same questions asked again and again when there are already top class answers in the Q&A. So, could you not implement some kind of suggested answer system? So, user posts a question, you analyse it, list potential answers that may provide the answer based on the content of the question itself. If nothing matches, the user can then go on to post the question but in many cases, they would get a top notch answer instantly. I have seen this on other sites and it would certainly cut down on the amount of duplicated questions and the suggested answers could all be hand picked to some extent (good answers, lots of thumbs up etc). So, the Q&A would have less duplication and users would get directed to the best possible answers for a given question in a shorter time frame. Good for those that do the answering, good for the people who have questions - everyone is happy. Just a thought, my tuppence, 5 cents, etc. 🙂 Marcus

What's with the new Q&A set up?
In the old Q&A set up your response was automatically given a thumbs up by you so that you got a mozpoint for every response you gave. Now you have to manually thumb up your responses. Why was this change made? Can we get it back to the way it was?
