It'll take a while to get used to, but hopefully it'll work better.  I've already acquired certain habits to circumvent the problems, I'll just have to unlearn those now.

Please share your problems here so we can fix them or all learn your alternatives
Prog On !

Yeah - the place has a whole new look about it! One question though...Where has the section showing members actually on line gone? This disappeared while the old software was still being run some time yesterday (I guess M@X removed it in an effort to address some of the problems that were occurring), but it seems it hasn't been reinstated yet with the transfer to the new software. Ermm

^ Ditto for me on the timeouts. Sometimes I get them 3 or 5 times in a row.

I also get many 'not authorized to post here' errors and that's not even in the collab zone.

My last visit ended up with me getting logged out, so now I've tried that as well.
But the most frustrating issue I have with the software today is the fact that I keep getting time out on my posts. Some taking less than a minute to type


Aaaaand it happened again

This is really irritating. Hell just by looking at your profile now Matt, it's as if you aren't online. That part has magically disappeared.

Edit: I was looking forward to spending some time on PA tonight, but with the way things are, I'd rather not. Too much of a hassleOuch
I'm out.

Btw am I the only one experiencing an altogether more loopy PA tonight? WTF is happening?!?!?! 
I can't see who or how many members are logged in. It's as if I'm the only one here, although I can't see that eitherConfused


I noticed that too, the "new posts" function has been pretty much useless today.

We've been trying to get a hold of Max, and I think Keishiro bumped into him over Facebook. 
From what I've been able to gather, then this is not something that can be done in a jiffy, which means that he's waiting for a free weekend to be able to make the update. I'm sorry I can't be more informative, but that's all I got atm.
Here's hopingBig smile


David, really appreciate your efforts in alerting Max and trying to make something happen.  Cheers.  Beer

I'm sure it's hard to find some free time in past year(s) or so..

*sigh*

You all know that I'm worthless, when it comes down to these sorts of things, but I'll point Max towards this thread and see what's whatSmile


Thank you.  Smile
