Hmmm, strange, I've not been told about anyone else having this problem. It could be a session issue.
When i came back after a few days away a couple of weeks ago, I noticed the same problem clicking on the little "new posts" graphic for topics on the second forum page. Not been away long enough for that many new topics to build up since, though...

Wow thanx for the speedy response! posted om AOL the other day! 19 hours later posted a complaint and the ops removed the complaint AND the query! ;-)
mark your reply kinda went straight over me head like an aeroplane, but i'll check me internet options n stuff! ;-) only running zonealarm so nothing sneaky to be anonymous!? it always takes me back to the welcome click to enter swingingheaven page, not the main forum! and as i say it's intermittent! click it once no joy! next time fine??????? so ya can easily work with it, but just seems odd?
strange??????
cheers mark and roger!

Oops, mine does this too. I have to click back and then try the next page again, usually works the second time.
Doesn't happen every time, but it does happen a lot. Ever since the new look came into play.
There again, I use AOL too, maybe it's something to do with that if noone else has it happen. Come to think of it, from what I can remember, it doesn't happen when I use IE

MissChief hey xxxxx
yeah how crap is AOL??????? booted every hour too while i'm on the subject! especially during a PM! lolol ;-) but yeah exactly as ya say! hhhhhmmmmmmm???
I use AOL for my connection only, then IE for all web stuff?????? just strange how it plays sometimes n not others?

I've tried posting and when I hit submit nothing happens then the site goes down.
Only happens now and again.

Hi Mark
I have this problem as well sometimes. But I find its when I click on the little "latest posts" link next to a subject on the forum menu. And funnily enough, I'm on AOL as well. I havent had the problem of the site going down altogether though. Just my luck, me missing out on something going down rolleyes

16 Apr 2004

Mark
It happens when I either click Next or the following page number at the bottom of the thread pages. I think it takes me back to the welcome page, not sure tho, just tried it 1000000 times in different threads and it didn't happen!!!! rolleyes

Like taking your kid to the blummin doctors, as soon as you get there they're fine rolleyes

Neil, hiya xxx - Know where you're coming from with crappy aol lol, but I don't want to change cos my main email address is my name. No numbers or anything else, quite rare these days to get I think.

16 Apr 2004

I haven't had this particular problem, but there is one oddity that might be related. When the system is heavily loaded (like it was last night), the "you have a new PM" window sometimes shows the SH logo instead. It could be the top left corner of the entry page. It only happens when things are very slow.

16 Apr 2004

Blimey Mark lol, hope you weren't thinking of getting out and about any time in the near future :shock:
Wish I could help in someway, but unless it's something to do with a thingamybob, whatsit or oojameflip, then I'm afraid I am useless confused

Hi MrFC,
What do you mean by the site goes down? Is this perchance only happening with your longer posts? Could it be a case of it taking you that long to type the message that the server thinks your session has ended and then when you click submit it takes you back to the log-in page?

OK Angel, I'm going to pin you down mmmmm cant wait!!(oo er). When you say you have that problem when you click on latest posts link, what happens exactly? I need more info to try and tease it out (ahem). Hehe, thats MY job, surely?

I'll see what I can do lol

<<SWOON>>
I'll get back to you once I've calmed down a bit :inlove: :inlove: <~~flirticons
Ahem... now where were we? Ah yes.... When I click on the latest posts link, it sometimes takes me to the main index page (which you included a link for earlier) so I have to use my browser's "Back" button to get back to the index page and then read through all of the posts in the thread instead of just the latest posts. Again, its an intermittent thing, sometimes it works and takes me to the latest posts, other times takes me to the index page. And even when it's done that, it will take me to the latest posts on some subjects, but not on others.
I have a feeling you may be some time sorting this one out Mark!! But do let me know when all this pinning and teasing and going down is likely to take place. A girl has to prepare for these things you know ;) :twisted:

16 Apr 2004

angel! if mark's gonna be a while on this..........well.......hey ya know where i am now........lololol

16 Apr 2004

I've had a small problem the past few days but seems to have settled a little today.
When there was a new post showing I clicked to get into that thread but all I saw was the older page from earlier in the day. I then had to refresh it to see the new postings.
Sorry Mark kiss

Dawn :silly:

16 Apr 2004

I'm not on AOL but I have experienced the same problem that Angel Chat is describing. (well Ididn't want to be left out !!!!) cool

16 Apr 2004

I had the same problem Dawn had, :shock: I 'm not on AOL either

16 Apr 2004

Ooooh!!! I just had the same problem Dawn had too. This is great - best Friday night for ages, trying to find problems. We know how to have a good time on here don't we? lol

So, apart from that Mark, everything seems to be fine!! confused

16 Apr 2004

No I don't do long posts they are usually one -two line answers redface

16 Apr 2004

Oi Sarge, get your own problem!
Not AOL here either
Dawn :silly:

16 Apr 2004

Now Dawn, you know that your problems are my problems too!!!!!

16 Apr 2004

:shock: well, using my $hitty 1meg DSL cable connection, I have experienced none of the problems above lol

I would add that AOL users on my web site experience similar problems while no other ISP users do...........
@rsholes On Line (AOL) strike again methinks..........

I set my browsers to accept cookies, and do not run any other software to block them either... this may account for my smooth usage of this site compared with some of you. Who knows... at the moment I'm at a bit of a loss to work it out to be honest, especially if you are sure you have your browsers set to accept at least first party cookies.

Would they be chocolate chip one's??? ....................
JOKING!!!.... lol

DJohn: Woah, that's a weird one! I'll just ignore it if you don't mind ;)

I do my best.
It's not much of a problem. Just having the window pop up is enough to let me know that I've got a PM. It doesn't matter what it says. But I had to tell you: I know how fond I am of intermittent bugs that only appear under circumstances that are almost impossible to reproduce. They're the fun ones wink

OK, I'll try to deal with all of these things... apologies if I miss any out.
Angel: you're a naughty naughty girl who needs spanking (OK, nothing to do with the forum, I admit that! )

I know, I know :twisted: smackbottom

Again, let me know when you get the time Mark... I see how much you have on at the moment - give me a shout if you need a hand (I can't really do technical stuff, but my hands do come in very useful sometimes ;))

Quote by Mark
OK, I'll try again!
Angel, MrFC and others: I think it's a cookie problem (maybe). Steveg points to this in his comment. I'll try not to get too boring or technical, and I've got a bottle of red in me so it might all be bollocks anyway! It sounds a LOT like you aren't allowing cookies. Therefore the SH server itself has to 'track' your session on the forum for you (rather than your cookie doing it on your own computer). Try to make sure you are allowing cookies to be set and this may clear these problems up.

Well despite not being a techy when it comes to computers, my knowledge DOES stretch to cookies. I've checked the jar, and there were a couple of lovely chocolate chip ones at the bottom. I ate them of course redface

and then saw that I had ALL cookies allowed, so this isn't the cause of the problem.
Unless AOHell has some way of blocking cookies that I don't know about? confused

17 Apr 2004

And it would only let me delete the last one. Don't tell my bosses ffs, I do all the beta testing on our computer progs at work!! rotflmao
