  • Is this forum broken?

    I’m reading a thread, or typing a response, when all of a sudden the page just refreshes. If I’m typing something I lose it.

    Is it just me or is this yet another bug?

    All part of the plan to reduce bandwidth.  It has to be that, it couldn’t be incompetence.

    It seems like only 1/10th of my posts get shown to other users!?!?!?

    Can’t say I’ve noticed anything other than [occasionally] the cookies bug which given none of you can turn off ads, suggests the refresh thing at least of a result of either an ad being blocked or displayed.

    It seems like only 1/10th of my posts get shown to other users!?!?!?

    If it helps, less than half of those interest other users 😉

    Repeat refresh and even a couple of crashes.
    I’m hoping it doesn’t crash again before I fi…

    I haven’t noticed anything unusual. It’s working exactly the way it’s always worked.

    Very broken
    I’m unable to create threads and have reported it a number of times
    Also the help email support@singletrackworld.com
    Doesn’t work any more

    Yes. Cannot click on ‘page 2’ of a thread, it just goes to a full page ad.

    I remember that, IIRC they just completely broke the old one and it has never been 100% since….

    Maybe it’s telling us off for not being a full member?

    Or is it not that clever?

    Typed out a post asking if anyone had any experience of Sealskinz Mittens(or and of their glove range) (Xmas gift for Sister.

    Hit submit and all I got was a blank page.Couldn’t be bothered typing it all out again.

    If it’s not one thing it’s something else.

    The only issue I’m getting is the Same Ten W’anchors ruining almost every thread I read. Wish they’d set up their own What’s App group and eff off.

    The perpetual left/right motion of contributions to the SKS thread has finally created a vortex channelling everything to a parallel universe.

    Also the help email support@singletrackworld.com
    Doesn’t work any more

    I was a moderator on STW for ten years and I’ve never come across support@ as an email address.

    @bruneep – that looks like a poorly formatted tech-support@singletrackworld.com, although that is also not the e-mail on the contact us page

    Does anyone else get a kind of link hijacking thing?
    i.e. click on a thread title and it opens a full page ad instead of the thread? Get this on my phone and thought it was fumble fingers on my part, but have paid more attention and definitely isn’t.

    Thought about starting a thread or reporting it via email but then realised that was pointless

    I’m getting constant reloading and freezing on all 4 devices I use. Now I have some time to actually post I am typing most 3 times before I can get a post submitted.

    Edit : I’ve been getting the ad hijack as well. Also typing and then having to wait 30 seconds for the letters to appear.

    Support@ was listed on a cached page somewhere.
    The actual is tech@

    Still gets ignored along with ten attempts to report a bug.

    It’s always been a poor forum but is steadily getting worse

    They’re not ignored but they may be a low priority. As pointed out it shows Tech-support not support, I’m not sure if that works but its been reported and they are looking at it.

    Where do we post constructive suggestions?
    I’m on the fretboard a lot and uf you click on a thread you automatically start at your first unread post there. May as well make those cookies do something useful.

    That’s a feature that’s not on all forums as an option for the Admins, i’d love that on mine for example but it’s simply not within the phpbb software sadly… So it’s completely possible it doesn’t exist here too

    Keep seeing this bouncing to the top of the page and can only report that it all seems to be working fine for me, no issues for ages 🤷‍♂️

    I appreciate it will probably now be New Year before it lets me post anything again

    It show tech@ not tech-support@

    I’d also say that never getting a reply is the very definition of ignored.

    Yes, was getting ad-click jacking on my old linux desktop, although not on macOS.

    Glad its not me – that is the kind of thing that will be the straw that breaks the camels back for me, if it keeps happening.

    Nowhere because the devs don’t read the forums. There’s a help button right there ↙, use that.

    I’d also say that never getting a reply is the very definition of ignored.

    There is a difference between not receiving a reply and actually going unheard. I can promise you that bugs and suggestions all get logged and tracked.

    I appreciate that communication out of STW isn’t always what it could be, but if you’re expecting to be personally fluffed by a dev team of just two people on a site with 1.5 million hits a month then you’re off your rocker.

    I know but what it doesn’t have is support@

    Not getting a reply isn’t exactly being ignored, it’s just poor communication. The bugs are listed mods can view the bugs pass any we find on. I will mention it might be helpful to reply where possible.
