This has been ongoing for a little while, basically the site is too busy for its own good and when too many people are trying to navigate/post the server CPU simply cannot process the requests in time therefore creating time outs? Needs an upgrade on the hosting package I would I assume but unfortunately its a little up in the air as to whom takes responsibility for it. I agree that funds could be pooled I don't think its a lack of money and more a lack of time and effort, unfortunately SteveP who would normally handle this has had a change in work commitments and is no longer able to support the forum in its running and as of yet no one has stepped up to the plate.
