Buddies

Is it just me, or is there no more buddies now? I look in my Profile, and there's no Edit Buddies link. Did you disable it? And how come?

not really a reason for buddies now, the forums are like a family, small, and close :P just click on a profile, and PM, easier

Its not like it was really used anyways if memory serves.I never even realized it was gone until you mentioned it.

Yeah, I didn't use it much either, just noticed it wasn't there.

It was disabled to reduce load on the database while we investigate the reason the site is running slow. We've made progress and we don't really need it disabled any longer but I'll leave it off until this issue has been fixed.
