Technical problems

Rai · 01-03-2008, 06:38 PM

I don't know what happened, but the forums started malfunctioning for me lately. Firstly, they are sometimes really slow, then when I want to load a thread, it is often just a blank page. I have also lost at least two of my posts like this: after I clicked the button, there came a blank page and the post did not appear in the thread. Plus, the New Posts button seems to be a bit bugged. This might be a Safari-related issue, so I'd like to ask whether any other eskimos had any such problems with the same browser, or its just me. Firefox seems to be working fine, but I'll test it a bit more.

Cali · 01-10-2008, 07:22 PM

for me too, and i lost a couple of pm/posts to a blank page

Sorry... I'm going to see if I can upgrade the forum or at least find out why it's so slow... but the hosts are a bit slow to respond to queries, so it might take a little while... thanks for your patience...

Cali · 01-10-2008, 08:58 PM

thanks em.

Hope I don't jinx it, but the forum is operating at high speed for me again... how about the rest of you?

Wheels · 01-14-2008, 11:04 PM

Actually, I think that did jinx it for me...
