*There is a workaround [hold the Back button and select the page you want to go to]

*The issue isn't on STW's servers, making it harder to find, let alone fix

*Apart from those that haven't found the way to turn the ads off when logged-in as Premier, those affected are all using the site for free

*It doesn't affect every browser, even.

It looks like it's pretty much lowest priority to fix.

Probably will happen after they add support for WEBM and other niceties [Don't hold your breath!].

Jesus you guys are unbalivable, why not just say it 'we have no interest in people using our website for free'. Not sorting your own comapnies problems, then saying well it's the customers fault is a rediculous attitude. How do I even know that once I've piad my money to be a Premier user it will work, appart from your dubious assurances that sound like something a con artist would say?

You said it Dragon!

This forum would be nothing without the input of we forumites; that is our 'payment'. So how about giving us a little R.E.S.P.E.C.T and sorting the issue out?

I was going to do the £10 subscription to get rid of the adds but didn't really want to 1) do a direct debit and forget and 2) pay £15 next year.

£10 is OK as I tried a membership for a year but didn't read any of the mags.

Woah woah woah guys - [b]I'm nothing to do with the site admin/team/etc!![/b]

The above was just, like, my opinon man.

Tuner Guy, I thought there was a no-ads-only sub? I only went Premier myself* a couple of day ago because I wanted to read the Mag, but the lack of ads makes the site faster, and incidentally fixes the issue with the back button.

*After happily shitposting for free for a few years 😀

Both Premier and non-Premier users should have the expectation the back button working. It is one thing to pay for enhanced functionality but quite another to be expected to cough-up for the services you would consider to be fundemental.

In business your reputation and image are everything. The forum is a direct reflection of the ST magazine business in general. If something isn't right, it matters, and ought to be put right as quickly as possible.

The entitlement is strong in this one.

Well, that's expectations for you.

I don't disagree that it should work, and if you read back there have been a few workarounds suggested previously which might help until the issue is totally resolved, but I reject absolutely the notion that you get to start making demands about something if you're getting it for free.

Oh, and anecdotally,

In order to try and help I've just had a play with the site using IE11, no browser plugins loaded and not logged in, and it seems to be working just fine for me.

It sometimes doesn't work for me.

I really really can't understand how anyone could get uptight about it though.
