Hello techies
The forums have been worse than usual today. Every single time I have replied to or posted a thread I get the dreaded yellow application 'Timed Out' page, but it still seems to post my replies, although I don't know they have been posted.
Is it just me?
Sorry it took me a while to find the Edit button as everything stretched in all directions
Best wishes Chris

Hi Chris
I've not had any problems although the forum has been quite slow at times. I suspect some of the newcomers have had problems though judging by the number of multiple posts.

I'm having the same problem, I keep going to re-post thinking it will have lost my post but it is there!

Me too Chris. It's happened before and I now know that it does post even though it times out.

I live in hope but too slow for me, unlike other sites and that is why i don't post as much as i would like too.I only stick around because its the RSPB.:0)

Same for me as well. Newcomers to the site must get really discouraged by it - I know I do.

I concur. When I joined the forum I was very enthusiastic, but soon got frustrated by the lag. I come back every once in a while to check, and although it is a lot better than the early days, it's still too frustrating. I realise that the RSPB have to prioritise funds so we'll just have to live in hope.

It's been OK for me today., a bit slow but no time outs.
I'm like Pipit. I do know the yellow application doesn't mean you have lost your post. Your post has been made, but it has timed out returning you to the page. Patience is the only answer until we get our new software (next month with a bit of luck).
Cheers, Linda.

As well as the server/timeout message (just go back twice and you find your post has posted) my email notifications have stopped, is anyone else getting this? I have checked my profile and they are still turned on but I haven't had one since Tuesday night.

Oh dear Terry!! That means you will get a million of them when they start again!!! Mine are arriving as normal.
