Forums go Boom every time I try to post!

Forums go Boom every time I try to post!

Has anyone else been having this problem lately? At least half the time I try to post, the forums go Boom and my post is eaten. And it's periodic; for example, I've tried to post something like 5 times in the past 10 minutes but it won't work. But I posted something earlier in the day and it worked just fine, but the day before I couldn't post anything either.

Also, if this post works, I will cry.

All I got was booms last night... total frustration!

Also, I didn't see any posts at all in the beta forum, only stickies.

More then half the time I post I get that stupid error message page. I pretty much post expecting my post NOT to go through.

Hmm so it did go through but the error message still popped up. I think most people here know what I am talking about anyway.

Yeah...it's gotten so ridiculous trying to post I don't even bother half the time anymore. And it's not just the forums. I give a page 10 seconds to load and then I just leave the site. And I fully expect this post to not post.

Honestly....this shit is just ridiculous anymore. Patience has just run out. If these forums ever work right...consistently like other websites...someone please email me and let me know. <_<

I've given up...figured I'd lay low for a while and maybe things will get fixed.

Copy and pasted this message 3 times...wonder if it will finally post?

If it works...Hi everyone, I'm still around. :grin:

Hey Cars! Hope the vacation was good and you're feeling better.

I wonder why we're always hoping it'll run better yet it never does.

I'd be happy if it walked at a brisk pace.... but it can't do that without frequently tripping over.  Egads!!!! :(O

Yeah, it was so woeful last night [Oz time] I ended up looking up the URL for the Playboy site.

Saw a few skins there... but nothing I liked. :grin:

starkers, I would settle for a fast crawl, rather than this bloody mess of earthquakes that we loyal dockers have to suffer, but at least they are NOT tsumamis that wipe out everything.

I had paused my elemental testing to post an crash and found that the forum is in FAR WORSE shape than elemental is, and spent a long time attempting to post the error report, then gave up for the night on BOTH beta testing of elemental AND alpha testing of the forums(attempting to post the same error message many times and getting that HORIBLE fucking useless message about those crapping pigeons and weebles), and after getting my stress levels PAST major disaster, I gave up and watched half a dozen anime's to unwind while drinking several longs of my gunpowder beers(10%+ alcohol) to reduce the stress enough to get to sleep.

and I will NOT resume beta testing UNTIL the forums have been bashed back into rough shape so that I can post the issues & problems as I find them

No boom today, the boom has gone away
The weeble stands forlorn, a scarecrow in the corn
No boom today, it seems a common sight
But people passing by don't know the reason why

Reply #174 Top

perhaps the weeble ATE the pigeons, but this evening the booms have only happend a couple of times.

 How could they know just what this booming means
 The end of our posts, the end of all our dreams
 How could they know the joy there had been
 Behind the words before booms reigned supreme
