The forum is currently broken, IMO.

Jason's reply showed up today - not others.

Posts after Jason's NOT showing up

FYI: I only see the first post.  No more. 

Currently, at the top, it tells me that the Last Post is from 3 days ago (and it similarly comes up near the top of the Recent Posts page) but when viewing the messages, the actual last post is 6 months old, see attached screen shot. (Maybe the result of some edit that updated the last post date for the thread, but not a post?)

My current related experience to the OP is that, if I attempt to post a new topic, log in will fail until I first attempt to reply to an existing topic.

This is all I see (Mon Oct 7th @ 3:34PM UTC+0 time):

A... and if I click on the dots in the upper-right of the message then I can get a list of all of the posts and read what was posted by clicking on the summaries ...

.... so, this is currently my experience.  I've tried using Firefox instead of Chrome.  I've tried using incognito which is a quick way to clear cache.  I've tried using a mobile device vs. a laptop which sometimes shows different things but in this case -- it's the same (for me) across devices.  

Perhaps there's some issue that's tied to individual accounts and we all get a slightly different presentation of the forum depending on our account's internal details.

The amount of lift to get around the issues has me currently pausing use of the forum except for efforts to try to nudge those with the ability to fix the problems.

Last night the forum was, at least, advertising maintenance.  It's not fixed yet.  At least not for me.

Perhaps Yamaha would consider a switching to a proven, reliable forum solution to serve its community here?

I can't reply to anything and have it show up, so I would say it's broken!
