Description

So on the dev call, I thought that there was a timeout issue when parsing the RBE inbox check.

Turns out the problem was simpler than that! A user was replying to a trashed forum topic and that caused a fatal error due to the way RBE handles replies when a forum topic was trashed or marked as spammed.

I initially copied the reply logic from bbPress and they also recently addressed the issue in bbPress 2.6.5: https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3409
