i have a 'back' button on my mouse to navigate, when i try to 'back' after opening a discussion, it will not go back as there seems to be loads of 'hidden?' pages i have to 'back' through..
when i go forward, i have to click loads of times to get to the point where i can go no further.
anyone else got this?
it is only happening on this site. bbc etc fine
"back" works fine on here for me.
Back and forward work fine for me too
Though on a desktop I usually just middle-click to open threads in the background in a new tab, read them, then middle-click the tab to close it.
just had that. Seemed to be a BT advert
yep, just loaded a page with bt ad on, then the back button played up.
Oh right. Ads... 😕
Had similar especially at work today, every page I visited on teh forum required about 25-30 "backs" to get to the original forum list again
Yes, loads of prob's. Get's to the point where I just shut it down and walk away.......... Bye.
No problem here (Win7/Chrome)
I've been having the Back issue as well, but sporadically
KPHC: you're a Premier member, are you still seeing the issue with reduced ads? (assuming you have selected reduced ads)
Kinda surprised so many people use the back button - seems like a painfully slow way to surf.
Perhaps your mouse hasn't got the button configured to go back?
Why not open each post in a separate tab, thus never losing the overview page you originally clicked on?

oh aye, coz a lil squeeze on the mouse bottom thumb button is like, such hard work.

Me too.
I have the forum "overview" / "bike forum" / "chat forum" set up and use them to click back to wherever I want to be after reading a thread.
It's slow because you have to reload the forum index each time you are done with a thread.

So how's it working out for you ?
A "Previous Topic / Next Topic" option would be useful

great thanks.
STW specific button settings never occurred to me though.. you realise theres more to the web than STW?

I am not aware of any recent problems. Are you having a long-standing issue? Is this any browser in particular? I know some browsers have some design problems with back buttons. I would also suggest your mouse button software may be an issue if you are using it for browsing.
It often helps to clear your cache and close your browser. Please post if you can narrow down the problem, or if you have details you can email me.

well, consider yourself aware.
it's not just me, others here are reporting the same.
my mouse software works fine with EVERY other website, games, the lot.
So how's it working out for you ?
Great thanks
Obviously not otherwise this thread wouldn't be here would it

It's not the physical effort - it's the loading speed.
Basically if you want to read 5 threads you need to wait for 9 pages to load, whereas the middle-click style means just 5 loads and I don't wait for them cos they load in the background.
22meg adsl + i7 + sata3 SSD raid0 = no wait.

Hmmm, all good here.
Would prefer it if links opened in a new tab though.

Middle button/Wheel?
Middle button/Wheel?
Possible to configure I guess, spend most of my time here on the laptop though (using the touch pad).

Cheers chvck!

Ads are the biggest source of annoyance on here. Even on my works laptop, which is a Dell Precision for running FEA. XP pc at home often freezes on STW. Fine anywhere else, just here.
Can appreciate that without them the site wouldn't be here, but its getting past the joke.
Can tell its getting bad when going elsewhere seems the less annoying option.
Sorry STW. 🙁

Sorry STW. There's always Premier membership!

Dual 100meg dsl lines, i7, raid ssd & sli. Yawn.
Even logged into my Premier user account the issue is very much there , seems to be the following URL that just goes mad in the background, reloading and reloading so that my history shows this URL dozens of times and therefore can't immediately revert to my previous page....tres annoying!

I'm having the same problem sporadically
some ads crash ie 8 frequently for me (work computer)
still happening, anyone doing anything about this?
same problem as KPHC - holding down the back button on the screen gives me a history of nothing but img.mediaplex.com/content/0/1994
Back button doesn't work.
Site also crashes on some networks, usualy when they are slow. Seems to be when it tries to load the adverts.
IE9 on Windows 7, probably fully patched & SPd as its a work laptop.
i get that sometimes on STW
Fine on iPad, crap on IE. Same issues, press back >10 times to do owt
Any news on this?
Bike Forum looks like a cup of tea for me.
This is poor.
I click on a thread and go straight to the thread OK. When I get there the browser's back history shows that i'm one level down from the forums page and I can go back with one click. If instead of immediately hitting back I wait thirty seconds before looking at the back history there are nine copies of the thread page in there and I have to click the back button 9 times.
It looks like one of adverts or trackers is repeatedly loading the thread page.
It's very annoying.
I'm using Firefox 15.0.1 BTW.
Same problem for me too - I'm on Google Chrome.
Phew glad its happening to others thought my puter was acting up again .
Same thing happening to me with the back button Chrome user .
