Forum Problems?
-
Hmm, I have to say I'm not exactly certain what you're referring to, but anyway-
Sometimes when I try to post it just logs me out for no apparent reason. Sometime it gives me various spurious messages (without sending my post) and then won't back up so I can retrieve my post. Which is highly annoying when you've just written a lot.
Sometimes (when logged in) when I click on another page it just refuses to recognise it. But it'll load other pages really easily. Usually it's one or other of the forum sections that it just won't load. Sometimes logging in again helps, sometimes not.
I know some people have had much worse problems than me. (To be honest, it usually works fine for me, and any problems are just niggles.) Some people have told me how there are certain days when they just can't get here at all, which seems pretty strange, considering others can do so.
The only other minor little thing I've noticed is that when you've written a message and go to the "preview" option, for some reason the forum adds an extra blank line where you've already placed one. So if you don't notice, it adds really big spaces, which just looks strange. As far as I can remember, it didn't do so until a month or so ago.
I hope that helps just a little. If there's something you have in mind, perhaps you could be more specific?

Yes, the problem you mention of the forum logging you out when you try to post is what I have in mind. I've had this problem myself, but not recently.
The forum software was upgraded about two months ago which maybe explains where the preview spacing problem started. I expect that is a bug in the software... will check to see if there is a fix.

This happened to me just this minute - I came into the forum and discovered I had to log on, even though I'd checked the box for it to remember me every time I visited. Â Initially I thought it might be something to do with the internet History folder, before I saw this.

Illusion, would it be possible to put a link to the backup forum somewhere fairly obvious? Until recently it was in the knews banner, but the new(ish) maintenance message means that there's no link I can see from this forum. If people are having problems posting here, as well as notifying you of their problems, they might value having the link so they can continue posting elsewhere until everything's sorted.
Just a thought.

Thanks for that.

Did anyone else have any problems getting onto the forum last night?
Everytime I tried to get onto the forum I kept getting This page cannot be displayed. I thought that it might have been to do with me downloading some things yesterday, which might have adjusted my browser and it's settings!
-
Illusion - sometimes your knightmare.info address just doesn't work, but most of the time, it does... meh.
-
James - could you describe the sort of problems you have had?
Thanks.
(sorry it's taken me so long - I've only just come back across it!)
It's just sometimes when I try to enter this forum, a message "This page cannot be diplayed" occasionally comes up, and when I do enter this forum it is still excrutiangly slow to load

Has anyone had any problems logging in today as I just have. I don't know if it's my internet though, as sometimes my ISP plays up and I can't get on to the internet or it disconnects me! I also want to know why and how some people I've noticed who post are unregistered as I have to log on to post a reply like today when I couldn't log on! It seems to be okay at the moment but might play up again.

They haven't, it's because their account has been deleted and all their past posts switch to 'Guest' status.

I am surprised that this forum is working okay tonight or has anyone had problems with it as I am having problems viewing other sites. I think there still is a slight problem with my ISP. I was wandering if anyone has had the same problem like trying to view pictures, colours and graphics and get onto Yahoo and a few other sites?

I've been having problems getting into the forum all week, it just says 'this page cant be found' or summin to that effect...
