Not just me then! I thought I'd broken something

Strange that it should start happening out of the blue though. Sigh...

I sent 3 emails to through the contact us button.

The ladies are right, it wont let you log off.

This has been a perpetual problem for 3+ days.

This is not an ISP issue.

Every time I click my favorites link to open up the page I get a message, See email please, and I am logged in.

Thanks!

ButchFemme Planet kept freezing on my iPad this evening. Other sites are ok.

It froze on a post I made on the CIJS thread and I couldn't delete it, I could not preview it.

Finally, after hitting submit, it took but it posted the same post 3 times!

Is there any way, or is it possible, that you would be able to delete two of the duplicates, just for the sake of everyone forced to see the same post 3 times?

Thank you.

At least you got in! I just sat and watched the gerbils push the wheel of possibilities around and around before giving up.

Is there a way to set a profile to private - only contacts and friends list?

I.e.- area for messenger?

Thanks

When I try to search for particular threads or posts I either get no results or too many to be useful. I think surely I must be doing something wrong because I see other posts by users telling other users to just search to find the post/thread in question.

Does search use boolean operators?

Does anyone have any tips that can help me search and actually get meaningful results?

Is there a thread that addresses it, searching, that I cannot find because I cannot search for it in a meaningful way?

Any help or direction would be appreciated.

KISS. Don't overcomplicate the search. Use the advanced search options and be moderately specific but not so much that you'll eliminate all of your options. Don't try the full title of the thread. Keyword searches garner better results. If you know the thread has been in existence for a couple of years it's probably safe to assume it has at least 25 posts and make sure to mark whether you are looking for key words in the posts or in the title and make sure that you actually use the correct words to do the key word searches. That helps.

I'm subscribed to well over 2000 threads, so it's often much easier to do a search than to try to go through my subscribed threads link. Muuuuuuch easier.

I can't remember what a Boolean operator is so I really can't help you there.

I set my account up to receive email notifications and I'm still receiving them but I can no longer click the links to open the individual threads and posts anymore. Is this something on my end? Thanks!

Gemme · 08-17-2016, 05:40 AM

I can't see YouTube videos posted by myself or anyone else. This started shortly after Microsoft made me upgrade to Windows 10 and my tech suggested strongly that I use Windows Edge instead of Internet Explorer so it's been about 3 weeks now.

I see the boxes but they are solid black and I can't click on them or do anything other than quote the post to get the URL and then pull it up in YouTube. I have no issues with YouTube when I go on it. It's just the links and just on this site.

Any suggestions?

Am I the only one having trouble with the formatting of the user cp? I can't pull up my reps at all and the format of the page is super wonky and giant. Any advise would be greatly appreciated.

Gemme · 01-18-2017, 06:03 AM

Weird, but small, thing happening: when I click on the thread link to reps I've received it takes me to the last page of that thread now.....not the actual post that they repped me for like it used to. Makes figuring out what people are talking about a little more difficult since I'm a bit wordy sometimes and post all over.

Is this a fixable glitch or will this be how it will be going forward?
