I often can't reply on the forums unless I press ctrl+f5 to reload the page - otherwise it sits doing nothing when I submit. Also, I am asked to sign in, unless I am in the forums then it shows me signed in!Speed is chronically slow.
Click on my account link and get a page saying to press a different link instead.
It's very messy. It's getting to the stage now whereby it's almost unusable. As a software developer I find this really annoying.
I struggle with it sometimes. Today, I was posting a comment and wanted to insert some quotes from the OP, but it wouldn't work properly. It's also sometimes very slow posting. I tend to end up copying what I've written, coming out of the thread, then going back in and pasting - and it seems then to post alright. One really annoying thing that kept happening is that I'd forget to sign in and would be writing a post or comment, then go to post it - only to get the 'Sign In' screen up, with everything I'd written lost. So, what I tend to do now - even if I am signed in - is to write whatever it is in Word first, then copy and paste. Either that or make sure I take a copy of what I've written so that I can paste it again, rather than rewrite it, if for some reason it doesn't appear.
It is very slow at times, yes. Very slow.
PS When I hit 'Reply' on that comment, it didn't post straight away. I waited, and waited, and waited... and finally copied, got out, went in again and pasted - and it posted immediately!
...I support what Mr MartianTom said, there...
...And in addition, Quotes cannot always be copied this way. And Paragraphs cannot always be quoted, and sometimes the Quote function prints IDs instead of Names (e.g. "NAS12345" instead of "UserName")...
The QUOTE function could start a Thread all on its own. (Just like Notifications has other Threads.)
