Sorry for all of the problems you're experiencing on the forums and probably also with the website itself at the moment.
We're still learning how to manage all of the traffic, and patches are being put in place to keep things moving but there's much more work to do. The current state of having to refresh a page 3-4 times just to see it is NOT the way things will work once we're settled in.
Thank you for your patience! Please bear with us.
