I really dont like the quote boxes in the forums being in white, the old back ones were far easier to read, now every bodies quotes just blend in together and its really confusing.
Could something be done about this please? :rose:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Yes the new quote boxes are a pain in the arse.
I think there`s a lot of work gone into things that seem to be changes just for the sake of change .....
But the quote boxes ......That must have been done with the specific intention to be REALLY annoying !! confused??:
see you cant see who quote what, who end where, I am pleased I am not the only one that thinks its a pain
maybe its too discourage this kinda quote within a quote ,too much talking not enough .....for te powers that be
and the quote button being moved ffs,i keep quoting the wrong person
Who said that ????not me fo sho.
it's annoying
lp
I am getting used to it...
I am still missing the nawty emoticon for mood ( bit thats just becauase i have a thing about handcuffs innocent
and one other thing... i am always very careful that my monsters dont see what sites i am logged onto... and the old home page was kinda discrete... the new one isnt if anyone with 'bits' on show!!
means i have to make sure i have a 2nd page open just incase!!
Can anyone help please.
I am having real problems with the new site. I can log in and it takes about 5 minutes to bring each page up, whether it is the forum pages or just browsing the site. I have tried clearing temporary internet files etc but still taking forever to load pages. Getting a little frustrated now as cant access the forum pages as taking too long to bring the pages up :-(

Sorry your having problems Tigger - I'm not sure how to help you. I use dial up so used to pages being slow at times but I've not had problems you describe. Put a support ticket in and give as much info as possible, including what browser your using. AOL users were having problems but I think that's been resolved now.

Sorry to hear your having the same problems...... I have even tried uploading latest version of flash but that doesn't help either :sad:
Suggest you submit a support ticket like me.
Hi there. Thanks for the advice. On the homepage was a question of you are having problems with the new site to click on it and give details etc, i have done this. How do i put in a support ticket? Not sure where to find this. Glad it's not only me that can't access the site properly either!

Go the menu on the left hand side of this page- "Information" -then "Support" - then "Support Ticket."
Nice pics by the way wink

IF you are using Internet Explorer....stop.
Use Mozilla Firefox.....do not have any problems at all with it.
Only a suggestion though.

Not only Firefox - Safari or Google chrome. Each one is better on a bad day, than Internet Explorer is on a good one rolleyes
Hi guys again.
We have just installed Internet Explorer 8 and now able to get on this site and actually get pages up quicker than ever. So it would appear the old version of IE slowed the site up.
Btw. Greenline.. Many thanks redface

I can not add pics to messages it allowed me once but not again.
It just comes up with a "Close" sign
Is these correct or is there something going wrong?

I've got this problem too - anyone help ?
Hi everyone
We have been monitoring ALL problems that have been reported and have been making changes and fixes where required.
AOL users are having some issues as AOL only updates its cache every 3 or 4 days, this means that you get a mixed bag of old and new bits when trying to use the site.
As for very slow loading pages this one is an odd problem and is effecting only a very small amount of users. It is definately something on the PC, we just need to identify it to resolve the problem. Could be some kind of add blocker, tool bar, or a certain build configuration. We run a slow query log on the server so we can identify issues site side and there is nothing in there that would cause these problems. In fact a lot of users have commented that the site has never been so fast???
As stated here people on seperate PCS on the same connection might have a very fast one and a very slow one. We will write to everyone who has a slow load configuration until we can find out exactly what is causing it. This will take top priority in the office until the problem is identified.
The more information you can provide us with the better such as browser and version, operating system, anti virus software, what version of flash etc also demographic location and broadband provider.

I`ve just tried that ....no change whatsoever ...as mentioned before, I can open new windows and everything works fine ....in fact it`s all weirdly fast with all the stuff I`ve tried the last coouple of days !!!
But the SH window just sits there and does nothing ...very slowly !! confused??:
Have you submitted a support ticket so it can be logged for the techie guys to fix?
I would pop a support ticket in and then it is in the list of to do stuff tomorrow - there are heaps more folk that don't read the forum... so get your problem in the queue that way too would be my advice!
I know that the whole team have been sorting stuff as quick as is humanely possible. For such a big site (and with no techie knowledge whatsoever!) I reckon it seems to have gone okay.
Its very difficult to use on my mobile phone very complicated unlike the old version :sad: xxxx
When I log on I get to the front page. I click on FORUM (cos that is where I want to get to funnily enough) and I end up on my Homepage. Why?
If I wanted to get to my homepage I would click on HOMEPAGE.
I end up having to click on Forum twice just to get there.
Is this a fault or is the site designed this way for some reason?

Doesn't happen that way for me.
If you let Admin know what version of stuff you are using (see MadMax's more techie post above) then they may well be able to sort the glitch.

I had assumed that this thread was being used as a kinda instant update for the few that do read the forums ....
Just goes to show how wrong I can be ....I`ll just shut the fuck up now ...

No need flower, that's not what I meant... I'm just selfish and demanding so was offering my personal advice i.e. get your problem registered every way possible and then maybe it might get done quicker! :twisted:
I am technologically inept but a great complainer! wink
Can anyone who had a slow or unresponsive site please now check to see if it has been fixed?. We think we located the problem and have fixed it!. lol
Thanks

I have found I sometimes have this happen after a automatic windows update. I just take the system back to pre update.
Another thing I have found helps is to turn off the internet provider hub and turn it back on after a minute and let it reset.
Or as someone else has said use firefox instead of internet explorer.

Totally agree about Firefox/Chrome Vs IE which is a pile of junk. Unfortunately it appears the developers of the new site have not fully tested it in the alternative browsers as profile photo's don't work in FF and neither does the bug report link! I have raised a ticket lets hope they can fix quickly as I only use IE at the point of a gun.
PS just found the Smileys and More Smileys link do not work in FF either. grrrr
Agree - The new site seems to require more clicks to navigate and it is not always rational in terms of menu flow... less is sometime more!
As an example, how do I make a photo my 'key' photo that appears in lists? Why do TABS disappear when you click on one of them?
I use FireFox or Safari on a Mac - Chatroom Flash fails everytime... good bye chatroom!
