FT Surfing and Posting can be just painful lately. When posting, the system can seemingly hang for minutes at a time, and at the end (closing the window or having it time out or finally returning to a thread), your post may or may not have made it to the thread.

I've had numerous occasions, where I'm hanging in one window, so open another to try another site to make sure my web connection is still there. No problem so I try to open FT from a separate window and it's totally responsive and no problem, but the other window (posting or surfing) is just hanging. At other times, FT cannot be found at all in that other window and it times out. Last night, for a bit FT was totally unavailable and within the past hour, the same thing happened.

I'm not sure if these are outages or just too much hitting the servers at one time.
