I know you have done your best, but you can still improve ...
the forum speed to around zilch.
On some occasions - although these are very rare - the speed of the forums is approaching a third rate Middle African site that uses century old servers connected over dial-up modems, but most of the time it is even slower with the Adobe forums.
I know you have no intentions to improve the speed of the forums, because why spend money on something as stupid as forums now that Technical Support is almost non-existent.
Why don't you close the forums altogether? You have your rental income, so why spend time and money on something that vaguely resembles something called user support.
When are you going to pull the plug?
