Posting problem

Aelia Jusa · 08-12-2005, 01:43 AM

I don't know if anyone else has experienced this. But I have found for the last few days that whenever I try to reply by quoting, which takes you to a new page, my reply doesn't go through and it just sits on the page. But when I copy the reply and go back to the quick reply box and paste it in there, my reply will go through very quickly.

There has been alot of data crunching going on in the background on the server in the last few days.

It should be fine now. Let me know if you are still having problems.

i've been having similar problems too for the last week...

It may have to do with the data crunching TDC mentioned ZFR and shouldn't be a problem now. If it is, report it!

This is a test of the emergency quote system, if this had been an actual quote emergency, you would have been instructed where to quote in your area to get details. This is only a test.
Edit: Worked ok for me.

I've been noticing that it takes a while for posts to get to the confirmation page. It's not that they give the 404 errors... they just hang for a while on "waiting for Ironworks.com...). I've found that if I kill it and repost, it usually works quickly the second or third time... maybe the fourth.

Like now...

Bungleau- That's been my problem as well.

yes that is my problem as well... only that when i do your suggestion i end up having double or triple posts..

Sir Goulum · 08-12-2005, 02:53 PM

Oh... when I do it, it never actually posts until about the third click, and if I do a fourth the flood control message pops up.

Bungleau · 08-12-2005, 04:53 PM

I must not be as patient as you, ZFR... I haven't gotten multiple posts. And I'm not as lucky as you, Sir G... I haven't gotten the flood protection message either [img]smile.gif[/img]
