Whats Going On!!! Seems To Be Another Glitch In The Boards

[ukwdwnut]

you know when you've read or replied to a thread/post the thread is not in bold(an unread post)when you click on new posts yeah. well im showing all in bold now even all the threads that were not in bold i just view them not posting and then they show in bold too

is that clear enough/understandable :lol:

anyone else experiencing this

[OKWTink]

Huh? :wacko:

[Whitequeen]

When you click on New Posts you just keep getting the one's you've already read, Tink. :(

[Keith]

yeah just seen it for the first time :/ well *IM* not doing anything so I'm innocent <G> I'll check it out though :/

[MystikPiglit]

Thought it was just mine! :confused:

[Whitequeen]

Wasn't me!! :unsure:

[ukwdwnut]

didnt know how else to explain it sorry if it :confused: you tink :D

[arcamalpha2003]

You have always struck me as a " BOLD " fella :rotfl: :rotfl:


Bill.

[OKWTink]

Nah, don't be sorry! I'm easily confused. But yes, it's happening with me too. All are in bold.

[ukwdwnut]

You have always struck me as a " BOLD " fella :rotfl: :rotfl:


Bill.

:p :wink: :lol: :lol:

[marivigi]

I guess its general..

I have the same problem

Funny how used one can get to those little things, that suddenly turn really IMPORTANT, huh?

[joanne]

Pleeeeaaaase no more tech problems :blink:
I can really do without this right now :(

[Wendy]

:overhere: yep, mine too! But I think I can cope for now! :p

[JuniorMickey]

If you press "get new posts" again it will unbold those you've read

[BevW]

:lol: And Mike, you KNOW I thought it was me! I thought I did something to my computer. I'm SOOOOOO glad it's not just me!

[miraclemoments]

If you press "get new posts" again it will unbold those you've read

Hmmmm, normally, yes...but right now it's not doing that...I just thought it was this particular computer...hmmmmm

Don't let it stress you too much Joanne :hug:

[JuniorMickey]

Hmmmm, normally, yes...but right now it's not doing that...I just thought it was this particular computer...hmmmmm

Don't let it stress you too much Joanne :hug:
It was working earlier :shrug: now it isn't... oh well :D

[Keith]

The server decided to think it was 5 minutes ahead of the rest of us and so how could we possibly have read articles that were posted 5minutes into the future <sigh> dontcha just love computers.

I've given it a sharp talking to and given it the number of the speaking clock... so lets see if it's any better.... it may not be that at all it may be <gulp> a cookie problem

[Shogun]

Wasn't my fault. I've been off line. :)

[OKWTink]

Did you try speaking to it in a language other than English? It doesn't seem to be catching on real quick. :unsure:

[miraclemoments]

I think you may be forced to take a firmer hand with it, Keith, it doesn't seem to want to listen ;)

Thanks for trying though...

[Keith]

I think you're right :( sniff sniff ..... and worse, I deleted its cookie and now it hasn't made a new one so it's forgetting who I am all the time. Seems like it has a few erm "issues".

[miraclemoments]

*sigh* Did you hurt its feelings? Perhaps you should just apologize and buy it some flowers?

[BevW]

I thought i was having another problem with my computer, but silly me, it's just my cat....she won't move off the desk. I have to move my head over to one side just to see the screen....
she's cleaning it. If I could only get her to clean the floor and pick up her shedding hair! :lol:

[ukwdwnut]

If you press "get new posts" again it will unbold those you've read


not at the moment it dont JM :rolleyes: :(

[Keith]

*sigh* Did you hurt its feelings? Perhaps you should just apologize and buy it some flowers?

Perhaps I'll just use the flower money and visit another server behind its back if it's intent on being so moody :wink:

[ukwdwnut]

Perhaps I'll just use the flower money and visit another server behind its back if it's intent on being so moody :wink:

so its being a typical woman then keith

:rolleyes: :wink: :D :runaway: :runaway: :runaway:

[miraclemoments]

SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!! KEITH!!!! You know it's probably listening to EVERY word you say!! He didn't mean it, really he didn't...he's a good sort...just a bit confused!! Now get in there and apologize to that server, Keith...maybe even a bit of choklit...and no sneaking a bite on the way over!

[ukwdwnut]

SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!! KEITH!!!! You know it's probably listening to EVERY word you say!! He didn't mean it, really he didn't...he's a good sort...just a bit confused!! Now get in there and apologize to that server, Keith...maybe even a bit of choklit...and no sneaking a bite on the way over!

whatever you do keith, no sossidges :lol:

[Keith]

whatever you do keith, no sossidges :lol:

sometimes there's just no substitute for a good sossidge but the trick is knowing when to suggest a sossidge and when to try flowers/choklit :( servers can be so unreasonable.

[miraclemoments]

Indeed they can...Perhaps a nice Zinfy would work? Although I tried the shiraz with my laptop a few months ago...didn't work out very well...

[Keith]

What do you think miraclemoments? as a woman, fairly close to a server really, is this a moment to suggest a sossidge? providing it's a decent one of course, not one of those tiny cocktail things... or is it a flowers/choklit moment?

[miraclemoments]

Hang on just a moment Keith...I'll answer your question in due time...right now I'm just trying to decide if *I'm* offended by that post (given all you've said about servers as of late)...you may need to forget the server and send ME the flowers/choklit AND the sossidges!!!

[Keith]

Indeed they can...Perhaps a nice Zinfy would work? Although I tried the shiraz with my laptop a few months ago...didn't work out very well...

AHHHH I see your thinking! Ply it with shiraz and then the sossidge! but then, there's never any CERTAINTY is there? I mean, all that and still it could be sitting there, looking like it'd rather be somewhere else and not replying/or showing any sign of caring about my new messages!

[miraclemoments]

Hmmmm actually I suggest simply admitting you were wrong and listening to server for a bit...you may find that works loads better than anything you can buy...

And I've decided...Yes. I'm definitely offended.

[miraclemoments]

BTW...the server seems to keep forgetting who *I* am as well...perhaps its just jealous? I think it's trying to get rid of me!!

[Keith]

Hmmmm actually I suggest simply admitting you were wrong and listening to server for a bit...you may find that works loads better than anything you can buy...


LISTEN to the server? have you ANY idea how long that would take? ok ok ok I take everything back, can't I just buy it lots of flowers and choklit, buy it a soppy video and leave it alone for a few hours whilst I go play golf????

And I've decided...Yes. I'm definitely offended.

oh great... and your favourite type of choklit is? :)

[JuniorMickey]

I now have non-bolded topics :thumbs:

[miraclemoments]

I now have non-bolded topics :thumbs:


Hmmmm...not me...I think it just likes you better JM :wink:

[Keith]

yeah it's still not talking to me in anything but shouty bold text either :/

[miraclemoments]

LISTEN to the server? have you ANY idea how long that would take? ok ok ok I take everything back, can't I just buy it lots of flowers and choklit, buy it a soppy video and leave it alone for a few hours whilst I go play golf????

No you may certainly NOT!!! You will listen and when it talks you will say, "So what I hear you saying is....." and then repeat everything back to it. You will then apologize and offer to be a better person (perhaps by selling your golf clubs and buying more choklit and soppy videos...first on the list...Love Actually)



oh great... and your favourite type of choklit is? :)

Hmmmmm...a few of those choccy covered strawberries at MGM should suffice...

[Keith]

No you may certainly NOT!!! You will listen and when it talks you will say, "So what I hear you saying is....." and then repeat everything back to it. You will then apologize and offer to be a better person (perhaps by selling your golf clubs and buying more choklit and soppy videos...first on the list...Love Actually)


but but but.....!

[BevW]

MM...You're Goooooood :lol:
Seems like everyone's having some sort of glitch with computers. It wasn't my fault! :lol:

[miraclemoments]

No "but's" mister...it's the *only* way...

[BevW]

I do have a question here....when I would get a notification in my email about a new posting, I could normally click on the link and be brought right to that persons post. Lately, I"ve been landed just about anywhere on that certain thread...at least I'm being taken to the right thread...I'm just dumped either in the beginning or the middle.
Can I fix this?

[miraclemoments]

...not until Keith apologizes... :wink:

[Dawn]

*backs out quietly and hopes no one notices I was here*

[ukwdwnut]

i saw you, get back in here, and stop creeping around dawn :lol:

[Dawn]

:tongue:

Umm, when I click on View First Unread Post it just takes me to the first post in the thread. On all the threads. :(

[Wendy]

:sshhh: :sshhh: Don't let Joanne hear you!!!:sofa:

[Dawn]

It's stopped doing it now. :wacko:

[Whitequeen]

Not on mine it hasn't. :rolleyes:

Keith, take the Server out to Dinner and a Show. Pay particular attention to what it's telling you and laugh at all it's jokes. Promise to call it first thing in the morning and tell it what a good time you had and how you'd really like to do it again. :thumbs:
Failing that.....................chuck money at it! :lol:

[ukwdwnut]

still the same on mine too :)

[Dawn]

Well I thought it had stopped on mine but apparently it was just toying with me.

[ukwdwnut]

your just getting us going dawn arent you :lol: letting us think the server is your best friend :lol:

[Dawn]

I shall be referring to it as meanieserver from now on. :tut:

[Starstruck]

I've just had a real problem loggin on, it kept coming up as usual 'Welcome Starstruck' and my name was at the bottom of the page as logged on but I couldn't access anything.

Julia

[joanne]

You're not alone Julia. I'm getting emails coming in from members saying they can't access anything :shrug:
I suspect the Photopost tech guy changed a cookie setting yesterday, but until I hear back from him I won't know for sure.
Other than that I really don't have the first idea what to do :sigh:

[tajainaz]

I've had intermittent issues with the read posts remaining bold, "first unread" taking me to the beginning of a previously read thread and "New Posts" disappearing when I've read only one or two of two pages! :eek:

Not to worry, Joanne! It can wait until after JoJo is reunited! :)

[joanne]

Sadly it can't Taja :( Some folks can't login at all.

[joanne]

Just heard that our Breezey is having the same problem.
Logs in then gets taken back to page saying she's not logged in :worried:

For anyone that's had the same problem, how did you eventually get in?

[Keith]

Cleared all cookies and tried again :( although it's still not right, I still have to type in the password every few minutes

[BevW]

Computer bugs are running rampant!

[JuniorMickey]

I'm okay logging in here at work Jo, but last night at home (even after cleaning out my cookies and changing my password) I could log in but when I clicked on a thread it logged me out.

[Redkop]

Cleared all cookies and tried again :( although it's still not right, I still have to type in the password every few minutes

have told breeze to try that, fingers crossed for me as everything seems ok for me :unsure:

[BevW]

Breeze really wants to get back on!!

[MystikPiglit]

Everything is still showing in bold on here too. Isn't it amazing how much more difficult it is to follow which ones have been read!....:confused:

[BevW]

Is one problem causing the other? I mean, is the bold print still showing up part of the problem with Breeze and others not being able to log on?
Breeze did you try to download SP2 without help from Mike, JD and Keith!!!! :eek:

[joanne]

The whole problem is being caused by a cookie problem. Still looking into it.

[BevW]

Jo, Breeze asked me to tell you that she's eaten all the cookies in her house, and it's all cleared out now, and ate all the oreo's and she still can't log on.

That was a lot of cookies Breeze!

[joanne]

Uh oh, looks like she got the wrong 'cookies' :ohdear:

Tell her I'm not paying the hospital bill when she's :sick:

[MystikPiglit]

Jo, Breeze asked me to tell you that she's eaten all the cookies in her house, and it's all cleared out now, and ate all the oreo's and she still can't log on.

That was a lot of cookies Breeze!
:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

[kiltedwarrior]

I had the 'here one minute, gone the next' problem yesterday, got the 'thankyou for logging in message' then brought me back to the main page, still requring me to log-in. Just kept trying, viewed a forum whist apparently logged out and it showed me as being logged-in, no problems since though.

[uscwest]

I had to go into my NETSCAPE preferences, remove ALL COOKIES, log totally out and back into NETSCAPE again.

[Chris/Lisa]

Right ok let me through, we seem to have a sick patient here is that right?

Wasn't very well and everyone thought the best thing to do was give it chocklit :huh:

Right stand back everyone - best way to get rid of all rubbish is with a nice big enema - I'll just put my wellies on and get a length of hose

[joanne]

:eek: :gairy: :hide:

[BevW]

I agree with Joanne...I'm hiding...Chris/Lisa is on a rampage!

[Dawn]

Wasn't very well and everyone thought the best thing to do was give it chocklit :huh:

And sossidges.

[OKWTink]

:gairy:

[Sungal]

ouch...keep getting kicked out by the bouncer! that last bounce hurt :(

[Dawn]

Told you - no jeans or trainers. :tut:

[Sungal]

'Your names not down, your not coming in!'

Can we have a bouncer smilie pretty please :D

[Breeze]

I'm BACCCCK, don't know for how long though :rolleyes: Jo, I really didn't eat all the cookies in the house :wink:

[joanne]

She made it back! :woohoo:

[BevW]

How'd you do this Breeze!!! Since you really didn't eat all those cookies! :lol: You really fed them to the dogs Huh?

[Breeze]

Red told me to clear my history and all my internet cookies which I had to call my brother to find out how to do :rolleyes: Then I tried to log back in and after about 10 tries it let me in. I did get kicked back out again and had to log in a couple of more times, but at least I'm here for a little while :thumbs: Could it be all those cookie crumbs in the keyboard :sigh: :whistle:

[ukwdwnut]

i have had no problems logging in at all, but then again i never deleted any cookies :wink:

[Breeze]

Every time I try to post it makes me log in and then it's okay till I post again and then I have to do the log in thing :rolleyes:

[miraclemoments]

Been having the same problem all moring...

Keith...did you try complimenting the server's shoes?

[Alison]

Phew! Just got in after many many attempts!! Cleared cookes, temp files and history in the process!!

[Alison]

But I've got the hump now.....can't get into the arcade as it says I need more than 50 posts ....I have got more honestly! :(

[Tinker]

And I thought it was my computer since I just got it back . At times , when I push post reply a board will come up that looks like the moderators board . Which I have no idea what it looks like , but if I had to guess, it would look like the screen that I get once in awhile . Alot of codes, numbers , letters , user ID of those who had previously replyed , more codes , letters , numbers, and so forth . I was going to cut copy and paste it and post it on the boards to show you , but then I had second thoughts . It only happens once in a great while . Anyone else get these weird looking boards or is it my computer ? :afraid:

[BevW]

Has Tinker found the hidden moderators spot? :lol: Like the Holy Grail? The Land of Oz?

[Tinker]

Don't start , BevW ! :lol: Its strange enough as it is ! I've just finish reading Sylvia Browns new paperback . dudududu :afraid: :singers:

[Redkop]

we better not annoy tinker in case she can ban us, strange going ons in here, better call the most haunted crew in from living tv (uk people will know what i mean)

[Wendy]

[Breeze]

[Tinker]

Ban anyone ! :eek: Jeez, I can't even understand it except for names and posted replies. :lol: :lol: :lol:

[Breeze]

[Tinker]

Next stop the Twilight zone :afraid: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:
More like the scary board ! :afraid: The 1st time it happened was like a few days after I got my computer back . I was like what is this and pushed backspace and tried again then it took me to where I'm suppose to be Safe !!! :whistle:

[BevW]

I just thought of this....you know all this wierd stuff that's been going on...well, what's the Great Day that's coming up? ALL HALLOW'S EVE!!

:eek: And all the flying witches and pumpkins and what not that's been posted, they may have just decided to take over! You never know...
Stranger things have happened in the world of cyberspace...
Like Tinker says du du du du du du du du du du du du...Welcome...foolish Mortals...
Oh sorry...wrong ride.

[Wendy]

I didn't realise he was joining them. I couldn't find out which pub, but the rumour was that its the Golden Fleece....I should've popped down anyway, to see. :hehe:

Bev, you may be right................ :unsure: :Panic: what if * whispers* the dolls are on the loose for Halloween??????// :eek:

[BevW]

Breeze!!! You know I don't drink!!! Alcohol anyway. It's just been a long day with the kids! They've all been tiny terrors! And I'm outnumbered 3 to 1 :lol:

I think I've been watching too may scary movies and that new show "Ghost Hunters".

:eek:

Oooooh bad memories of a student party come flooding back. :eek:

[BevW]

Oh yeah, last time I went out, (last month) this lady was walking around with a tray full of Jello Shots. They sure were pretty!

[Chris/Lisa]

OK I keep being kicked out today :huh:

[Dawn]

That's 'cos you threatened the server with an enema. :tut:

[Redkop]

got to treat it like a woman, be nice to it, agree with it, and buy it more shoes :lol:

[Chris/Lisa]

Obviously needs a bigger enema - I'll get me wetsuit and aqualung

Need to log in before each post at the moment :(

[Dawn]

Oi! Watch what you do with that snorkel. :eek:

[MystikPiglit]

HELP!

I always log out but past couple of days when I switch pc on I'm still logged in..:confused:

[Dawn]

Chris!! If you can get in long enough to read this - you need to eat all your cookies. And probably some sossidges for good measure. :rotfl:

[MystikPiglit]

Oh, it's still bringing me back as logged on although I just logged out!! :(


Now going to log out again - can someone have a look in few minutes from now and see if it's showing me as being logged in and I will check back later .

Thank you !

[joanne]

It's all part of the same problem Mystik.

[Dawn]

Perhaps if we all get together and eat all the cookies we can find that would help. :shrug:

[tushypat]

Are these cookies the soft chewy sort or the crunchy sort? I'm a soft chewy sort of person you see so if they are the crunch sort I'm not sure I can join in.

[joanne]

Can anyone else not access http://www.wdisneyw.co.uk/ or is it just me?

[joanne]

It's ok it's back again now :thumbs:

[Dawn]

Any kind of cookie tushy, just eat them all, we're bound to find the bad one eventually.

[Wendy]

:overhere: I'll eat the soft & chewy chocolate chip cookies.............http://pages.prodigy.net/rogerlori1/emoticons/pacman.gif

[Breeze]

Perhaps if we all get together and eat all the cookies we can find that would help. :shrug:

It doesn't work guys, I tried it the other day and I got really :sick: and Bob got really mad cuz I ate all the oreo cookies in the house :whistle:

I can get in, but now I have to log back in each time I go to the next page in a thread and I had to log in 4 times before it would let me post this at all.

I really don't want to have to eat any more cookies, can we switch to chips and dip instead for today :thumbs:

[ukwdwnut]

still having no problems at all, only the bold thingy still on read post/threads

[ukwdwnut]

keith looks like you courting the server has paid dividends :lol:

[Dawn]

Wonder how many cookies Keith had to eat. :unsure:

[ukwdwnut]

bet hes feeling a bit :sick: :lol:

[BevW]

:lmao:

[ukwdwnut]

anyone not getting popups for private messages, cos im not

[Redkop]

its working ok for me mike, getting them off you and JM, check your options for them and with XP SP2 make sure you allow them for the site :thumbs:

[ukwdwnut]

have not installed sp2 it was working fine for me earlier today :doh:

[Redkop]

could be yoyr ISP provider, as i say its working for me, anyone else having problems :shrug:

[tushypat]

Wouldn't know! I don't get pms. :cry:

[ukwdwnut]

well ive just sent you one tp so stop :cry: ing :lol:

[Tinker]

Me, too, ukwdwnut ! I don't receive my pop-ups anymore from private messages , either . Before my computer crashed I did Not receive 2 very important private messages that miracle had sent me . She had them in her sent/track messages, but I never received them . Again thought it was just my computer acting kooky at that time . :hehe:

[JuniorMickey]

I have been getting my pop ups all day and there have been plenty of Patriots PMs back and forth today :D

[joanne]

Do you have pop-up blocker software?

[Tinker]

The computer shop that fixed my tower , may have put a pop-up software in , I know he installed a firewall . I'll have to check with him Joanne :thanks:

[ukwdwnut]

the only difference is , i installed smilie central over the weekend and a couple of the other bit that come with it, and it stopped the pm pop ups me thinks, uninstalled it last night will test it later when i get home. works fine at work tho :)

[BevW]

It's Jo's avatar....IASW....24 hours a day.

[joanne]

:evil: :evil: :evil:

[BevW]

Yes, and even though I know the music's not there...guess what's going through my head. EEEEEEEEEKKKK

[dizzyknee]

I haven't been patient enough to read the many pages on this thread but I just noticed something and I thought I'd mention it here so if it helps find the problem...great.

On my private message heading it used to say 50 messages were allowed now it says 100...not a bad thing but is it right?

[JuniorMickey]

yeah, Joanne upped the limit :D
