PROBLEMS WITH THIS (NAS) FORUM - February 2018

Disambiguating Cynosure

I accept that this may be a "Bad" Topic, yet it needs to be highlighted, surely where "NAS" can *not* avoid seeing it, surely...

Current Problems with this Forum:
- Posts Disappear and Reappear at Random.
- Notifications are not always received (apparently).
- Editing Posts - *after* they have been replied to.
- Things such as "Groups" or "BlogPosts" or "Questions"... seem to have no meaning, and so they cannot be applied...?
(Anyone reading, you may currently check your own "Profile" to confirm this. Click upon your own "Achievements", and then upon "List of Possible Achievements".)
- ... There is a great list of "Achievements". Again, many of these have no defined meaning and so are un-achievable. (Linked to "Questions", "BlogPosts", "Ideas", "Status"...?)
- Assigning "Tags" to a New Thread seems to change constantly, and has neither Logical Order nor Meaning.

Here is the "Main" Thread, at which Comments directly to NAS are supposed to be Posted... yet much of it is completely ignored by NAS; It is only responded to by "WebPM", but for whom NAS would not have this "Forum" in the first place, I would wager...

    Thanks for the responses with further details. The pet and quiz threads are really helpful examples, and I've sent them to be investigated. I'm not immediately sure what the issue is, especially as some of the missing images seem just to be smilies.

    Lonewarrior's problem with posting a new image (as opposed to viewing previous ones) seems quite different. Could I ask if you know what the image size was? You can get this in Windows by right-clicking on the image in File Explorer, choosing Properties, and using the Details tab. There's a limit of 1MB, which is smaller than most digital cameras produce, for example.

    (Only for myself, perhaps, this was a useful thing to add. I had thought that "smilies" - Emojiis? Emoticons? - simply vanished because they were not 'loaded as a keyboard' upon my own *Old* devices... Now I know different, hmmm...?

    Still a lot of troubles which I am SO relieved to have highlighted after all, mayhaps...?)

    Excuse me! The aspie quiz thread has many pictures missing. Gone, no longer there, they were not smilies, they were screen captured images or linked results sent from the test as a way of sharing them, 

    They were disappearing so quickly which is why I requested people type the figures in as just a picture made no sense once it vanished.

    bye bye,
