Message Board Weirdery …

#

Started by mrs h

Something really odd has been going on for a while now, and I don’t know if it’s something I’ve done in my settings or my internet options or if it’s actually changed :S

Nothing ever refreshes itself - whatever page I’m looking at and no matter how much I browse the boards going backwards and forwards - if i want the page to update I have to click the refresh button. It didn’t used to be like that - if i posted something on a thread in chit chat and then went back to the NTRT forum, the page would refresh itself and it would show me as the last poster, but now it won’t. I know it seems trivial, but it’s really annoying when i’m trying to talk to someone in real time and I have to click refresh every few minutes to see if they have replied :(

Also I think something weird is happening on ‘view locations’ - There is never ever only one guest viewing a profile, there’s always loads! A few minutes ago it said there were 42 guests on line, and when I went to ‘view locations’ it listed 31 of them as viewing a profile! I don’t believe it for a second! Unless someone has a really fantastic profile and has gained some sort of cult status on the internet?

I think the profile viewing is being done by those pesky spidery-bot thingummys that go around collecting email addresses.

Sounds to me like the refresh problem might be something to do with your browser settings?

Hey Mommy

daryl’s right about the guests thing - it’s just evil bots nosing about the place.

I have no idea about the browser issue, and Rene isn’t here :( We haven’t changed anything that would make it do that though, so I think it must just be you, sorry :s

Darn. What have I done? It won’t even refresh if I close the whole board and come back later!

Oh well, back to the imaginary drawing board. Wouldn’t it be nice to have a drawing board as well as a message board? :)

It could be you a problem with your browser, have you recently installed a new one such as Internet Explorer 7, FireFox etc?

If not then chances are there’s a code break missing (the stuff behind these fancy web pages) and that’s something Rene would need to look at.

I haven’t installed anything so I guess I’ll have to wait for Rene :( I can even sign out, log out and shut the machine down - when i come back I will just see each page exactly as it was the last time I clicked refresh, even if it was days ago!! The only thing I’ve done recently is deleted all offline content, but I can’t see how that would have affected anything?

Yay!!!! I think I’ve fixed it!! :)

I went on my internet options to where i deleted the offline content, and had a look at settings and I had ‘look for new versions of the page - never’. I must have clicked it by accident when I was faffing about :)
