I have found this to be true myself.
The boards actually worked until today. The difference being that I purchased a month of RMS hosting last night and with the RMS enabled, the Boards cease to function.
Everything else *appears* to work, but not the boards.
(I say it appears to work because I don't have the ability to properly test all functions at this time)
I hope this is on the agenda of fixes for 6.17. If not, I hope someone with the ability to get attention drawn to this issue will let the powers that be know there is a real problem here. This is a valid bug & I would be happy to show anyone since all that needs to be done is shutting off RMS.
..............unless this is an issue with the RMS host, in which case I would like to know that as well. ; )
