Post by: Master Moderator on May 27, 2012, 12:10:34 pm
Hi all,

I logged in this morning and had some problems accessing here. Is it only me or is anyone else experiencing problems?

Please let me know

Thanks

MM

I was having a lot of trouble on tapatalk.  It's only just started working again for me.

But I am noticing all the junk posts coming on at the moment!

I had a problem at one time this morning MM, it just wouldn't let me do anything then told something about SMF ??? ??? Then all of a sudden it got back to normal.I thought it was maybe Admin doing some maintenance.

Hi Corninsh,

I think we had a server attack. I have requested IT guy to check if all security is in place... Any more problems, please report them in this thread.

Thanks

I have had a few problems just in the last hour. I kept trying to click on threads but the page would redirect and say there was a connection error to the server. I just kept trying until the page loaded, but it took a while. It hasn't happened again for about 15-20 minutes now though.

I had a problem yesterday (Sunday 27/5) - when I logged on I was told there were no new messages - and as I hadn't been on for 24 hours, that was unlikely.  Anyway, all is well again now.  Sounds like a real glitch happening somewhere but all fine now.

I have a really funny format  :-\ :-\ There is no green on my page and it makes it really hard to separate each post when reading ... if I could remember how to take a screen shot on my MAC  I would post a pic to show you ... might go and google how to do it  as it looks really weird :-)) :-))

oh and  :-* :'( are flashing ... does this happen for anyone else??

See if this screenshot business works ...

I had a page like that as well, Kathryn.  Hope it is all OK for everyone now.

ha ha would you believe that it is all back to normal now except for  :-* :'( are still flashing

Ater finishing that post (it was like it last night too but thought I would see if it was still the same this morning ... had been on for about 10 min and it was :-\) I read about 3 more threads and then when I went to the next one it was "normal"  :-)) :-))

Oh Judy, you poor thing having to delete all the spammers while I am goofing off having a holiday. Sorry. :-* :-* :-* :-*

Faffa I've had some flashing emoticons but thought it was the netbook. I just get on here enough at the moment, for some silly reason DH wants to go fishing all the time. :-))

I've found that I have flashing emoticons when I use Safari on my iPad, but not when I use Tapatalk on my iPad.

Haven't had any aforementioned problems (well not yet anyway) but can I please say to all of our diligent forum members who are fighting the war against the scourge of our lives ie spammers- MAY THE FORCE (TM, that is) BE WITH YOU!! I wish a plague of locusts to descend on all of them, well, maybe at least a severe case of head lice to each and every one of them.

I have just the last 2 of the little faces flashing,  on the iPad but not on the MacBook.  They have been doing this for a couple of weeks.  I think this must be an iPad problem.

Chookie I am on the Macbook and Cookie is on her notebook with the same problem  ??? ???

Faffa, thanks.  So it is not just the iP ad.  It doesn't worry me at all ,  not compared to some of the amazing things that I can accidentally do. ;D
