Chrome works, but Safari and AOL Desktop does not.

Needing to clear cookies repeatedly is annoying for posting.

So goodbye for now. I'll be back. Maybe...

I don´t really get the idea of "Active Discussions" and "New Posts". If I post something then it appears in "New Posts", what is "Active Discussions" for then? there are threads there that have not new posts in days. :| [smilie=duckie.gif]

The "Active discussions" appear to only contain new posts from the "Open Topic Discussion" and nothing from any of the other forums.

This is pretty bad.

Safari (Mac) works with one-button cookie removal

Chrome (Mac) I need to manually remove cookies after closing the site and refreshing the cookies page @ Prefrences: Under the Hood: Content Settings: All cookies and Site Data

At least that worked this time...


P.S. Remove the link at the bottom of the page that says "Delete all board cookies" - it doesn't.

It sounds as if I am not alone in having to clear my history each time I want to start a new session of posting. Big hassle. Hope they can fix it soon.

What is the intention behind the "quick reply" button at the bottom of the page?

It's so I can quickly respond with a one line answer, without waiting for the full editer to load.

PS had to put the quote code in manually.

edit and clear the cookies (again) :twisted:
good thing I used Ctrl-C & Ctrl-V saved a lot of typing ;)

Why have software "upgrades" resulted in what appears to be the worst functioning forum on the internet?

Over the years this site has been one of the worst, why change now? It can't handle email notification of posts, it's often slow, or down completely, and now this latest fiasco.

What's the timeline on solving for these 'bugs'?

Have an exterminator toss a bugbomb in here and then we can get back to work...
