Duplicate & multiple messages; threads that magically change senders' names; postings kicked back "Internal Server Error" only to appear days later; returned messages to webmaster.
What's going on? Forum Gremlins, Y2K jitters, or just computers doing what THEY want to do?

Nah. Just more nefarious doings of the vast right-wing conspiracy that controls the media in this country.

If you don't think your post went through, or got an error message, bring up another instance of your browser and connect to the forum. You'll probably see your message already there.
Remember, computers can be pretty quirky at times.

If you all stop and think for a minute, you'll realize none of this began happening until after Hillary e-mailed the Billy Bishop Zone guest book.

Al, what's going on?

Mike,

I've tried that too - so far it's seemed to work.

I don't post very often, but when i do occasionally it seems the message hasn't sent. I open another browser and lo, it's there...

But as for the messages changing the name of the poster... No idea.

Maybe Microsoft had a hand at running things.

Regards to all

Simon

Hmm it just happened then too - error message but double post without my doing anything.

Ok, I officially proclaim the forum broken.
