Sorry for posting it here, but this is really issue for me. This 
forum is cool and works very fast, but often it kinda overloaded 
? Sometimes pages are opening very slow or 502 Gateway timeout 
error appears periodically.

I confirm that. I am from Toronto, Canada (Eastern Time Zone) and I could not access the newsgroups the whole night, last night. I got this error: "The operation timed out when attempting to contact news.digitalmars.com." The other newsgroups (vibe from rejectedsoftware.com) were working fine.

This is a known issue. Last night (PST), for example, I could not access dlang.org (the website) at all, it just kept timing out. I'm not 100% sure it's due to the server being overloaded (my ISP may have been at fault), but since the newsgroup server is known to have load issues in the past, and since others saw the same problem, I'm suspecting that was the case.

I'll never forget that for my pseudo-proposal for std.between I received no response on the night of December 16. ... I tried?

I don't think it's the forums' issue - news.digitalmars.com was failing (although the forums could do a better job of recovering from timeouts).

I think it has to do with the hosting provider. Every night (UTC+1), the forum is down. Looks like there is some maintenance that stops everything.
