Weird issue

Post by Jarlaxle »

I think there is a glitch in the matrix-I sometimes get a "the site cannot handle this request" page...though if I'm posting, the post DOES appear.

Yeah, I think it's just getting hung up on the command that brings you back to the thread once the post is posted.

Ok, that's weird, it didn't produce the error that time, even though it just had a short while ago.

Been happening to me for days, I have to hit back arrow to previous page and refresh to see my post.

Same thing is happening to me. I just get a blank page after I submit a post. Then, I need to get back on to Plan B in order to see it.

Same thing's been happening to me for about a week.

Same. I get a blank page, it isn't refreshing properly. It does post what I hit submit, but it shows my own post as unread which it didn't do when the submit page worked properly.

Me too.

Been doing that to me too, for about a week now, but nobody said anything about it when it first started up, so I thought it was a glitch or something affecting my own computer.

Yes, I suppose I could agree with you ... but then we'd both be wrong, wouldn't we?

Me Too. I have learned to live with it. Actually the glitch forces me to pay closer attention to where I am clicking and i am less likely to double post.

They recently upgraded the software. If it keeps happening I'll get onto them.

There's a little button at the SE corner of every post - ^ in a disc - that takes you to the top of the thread. Has that always been there and I have just never noticed it, or is it new?
