For about a week now, I've had major problems trying to access this forum. Either it partially loads, or doesn't load at all. Even when it partially loads, many of the features of the forum don't work. I can't reply to some threads, and the ones I can reply to don't seem to let me edit my posts or use quotes. On top of all that, if I try to load different topics, it freezes. There's no rhyme or reason to the problems, it's completely random - and if I don't give up soon, I'm going to end up pulling out my hair! Does anyone else have these same issues? I don't think I've seen a website so full of glitches and bugs since the early days of the internet.UPDATE: *I've switched browser from Safari to Chrome and, fingers crossed, a lot of the issues have been resolved.*

Yes ~ most people have the same issues. The basic work around is top down activation ~ with just activating but not using the website's search engine (the magnifying glass in the top panel between 'How you can help' and the 'Donate' options) usually activates the reply box for the main original post, then or else if they are already there ~ activate the votes of 'Oldest', 'Votes' and 'Newest' options and scroll down past each reply in turn and back up and in so doing the vote /\ (up) or \/ (down), 'Reply' or 'More' (edit and delete) options should activate. Once you have posted ~ just to the top down activation thing again with the post you have replied to and scroll past and back to your post, perhaps a few times.
If you are still having difficulty get in touch with the National Autistic Society types via the Community Manager: Communitymanager@nas.org.uk
Yeah that advice still works for me.
