    I'm finding multiple strange behaviours when attempting to post forum replies of late. Both on Windows Internet Explorer (latest version), and on an IPhone with iOS8. Hang ups when hitting the Post Reply button, looping back into the editor, etcetera. Hard to explain. Maybe someone can take a look?

    Haha: Hit "Create Thread", a busy icon showed for about 45 seconds, then went away, still in the editor, didn't post. Trying again...

    Hmm, second verse, same as the first. Trying again...

    (Ok, that last time was successful. That's an example, I guess.)

    Google Chrome is your solution.

    I updated my mini-IPad IOS software last week and the "point to change cursor position" now does not work when editing whilst constructing a reply. Interface with Chrome on my Windows 7 laptop works fine, but compatibility with Apple's new IOS might have a flaw.

    Yeah, at the outset after the lastest website update, posting was fine, fast. It seems like something just started happening in the last week or so.

    (Of course that one went pretty quickly, lol.)

    still having posting issue on Macbook Pro. everything works fine, but when i post it goes to the flashing bar and times out, then i do it again and it posts after a few seconds. but sometimes, it posts immediately.

    Saturday afternoon, about the same. It'll crunch/crunch, for maybe 40 seconds, then go quiet. Seeing a lot of this:

    Yes it is a "new" problem......or an old one that has gotten worse.
    I just tried to post a reply and the first time it didn't "take" at all.

    I frequently have to hit post reply multiple times to get a reply post to post.

    I find the SECOND attempt often works...

    And on my iphone it can get into this loop, back and forth between the DONE button, and the POST REPLY, and the warning about having to wait 20 seconds. It very cleverly allows you to do everything BUT post, lol.

    Kinda frustrating, this talk among ourselves session, no mods listening?

    (Hmm, iphone worked fine, this time..., knows I'm onto it.)
