UBB and Invision would both suck under the kind of load we have. I don't think you understand the sheer amount of posts we have - since April 12th, we've had almost 70000 posts. Think about that for a little while.
Hmm, well I visit a site (a gaming network to be precise) that uses a modified version of UBB, and at the time of writing, the main forums and 2 of the most popular gaming forums have roughly 3 million posts. Given that it's been around for about 5 years, this averages at about 600 000 posts per year. Extrapolating from your figure of 70 000 in about 5 months gives a figure of aprox 170 000, about 3/10s of that of the forums mentioned above.
So, I'd say that this suggests that UBB, or rather it is possible to modify UBB to handle the large number of posts.
We are working to improve the performance of the forums, but it takes time.
Ok, good to hear, and it's nice to know that Bungie does care :-)
