Perhaps we should boycott this site for its incompetence, or greed? The people that are responsible for this site clearly don't know what they are doing, or have a forum solution that is not robust enough to cope with inserting adverts properly.


I can understand them wanting to improve things; but to half do a job, tools down when it is time to go home and leave this place as if they don't care is not very professional.

It's more than that, it's unprofessional.

Thanks one and all for your comments and sorry for any problems caused.
The problems with the new layouts and templates should be resolved by close of play today or Monday at the latest.

The style sheets from the previous visits are cached, if you were to do Ctrl + F5 it will crap out like the rest.

I did control F5 and nothing happened, or did I read you wrong? Probably that was the point laugh.gif

Er, Ctrl + F5 reloads the page in its entirety, so if the page hasn't changed then you won't notice anything. Should, however, Bill1 do it, then he will see the new (CRAP) style that intrudes so frustratingly into the user space. I see also it is getting worse, more CRAP adverts.


ADMIN - IF WE HAVE TO HAVE THESE CRAP ADVERTS PLEASE CENTRE JUSTIFY THE PAGE AND DON'T ENCROACH THE EDIT SPACE FOR POSTS.

Mind you, if this is the way the NWN want things to go, then I feel not like using this board any more, they have spoiled it.

I noticed more ads; they (being NWN) seem a bit obsessive with these ads. One would of thought that correcting the lay of the land would be more of a priority.... but then i suppose I could be called naive for thinking that. laugh.gif

Calm down. It's only a forum. It's not life or death. laugh.gif

A quick restart of the server will probably cure it.

It's a clumsy attempt at a panic inducing technique that I am trying to get to grips with that is championed by GMR! tongue.gif

It maybe only a forum, but it is a forum that NWN wishes us to use therefore it is not too much to expect it to be in working order.

As for a restart; read above as Admin has admitted it is there fault so no matter how many times one start the server you are going to get the same results. wink.gif laugh.gif

I don't mind the ads, we do get a free forum after all which is a pretty good one I think. Admin has said that there is a problem and they are working on it, hopefully it will be fixed on Monday. Let's all stop having a go at Admin and get back to squabbling amongst ourselves!

I agree the time has come to move on, however, without us voicing our opinion/ concerns then they (being admin) wouldn't know what was what. wink.gif

I also agree with you about these being good forums. The problem never was the adverts; per se but them overlapping the writing area.

Well, I've installed AdBlock Plus into Firefox and got rid of the ads, but it still doesn't give me my screen back sad.gif

Maybe if I look at the page source, I can find something else that needs blocking...

A restart may well resolve the issue, as it can be caused by the java application partially crashing, a memory leak causing the RAM to run short.

OK, it's also likely that someone made a ham-fisted change to the HTML code too.

Follow the 3 R's

Restart
Reload
Rebuild
