It's extremely slow right now, and the site has a record number of unviewable guests and hits on the site according to the register.

I don't know what the best new forum hosting site is, but Proboards is still around and free:
https://www.proboards.com/create-free-forum
Now would be a good time to make a change...

I have offered in the past and will offer again - I'd be more than happy to help get new boards up and hosted.

I'm definitely up for it. Better to do it now before the season begins next week.

Or move to Bots-Wana.
Seriously, I'm in for anyone who can make a go with a new service---330 "guests" online now that make getting into the threads a 40 minute experience.

You could set it up at any time, and the two sites could run in parallel for awhile.

Awesome! Thanks so much, Vonsid.
I made a crappy free Proboards forum as an emergency backup, but I don't really know what I'm doing. Definitely prefer someone who does, ha.

I trust you will have a separate area for each school; recall this site had to be subdivided after it starte, due to "crosstalk".

I believe the literal translation of Bots-Wana is "they have bots", so that probably would not help.

The new site is up for testing and feedback! There are a lot of updates to be made, but should be good to go for getting started.
