both being conspicuously absent simultaneously - inquiring minds want to know.

You're not getting off so easy this time.

I've opened threads which I know I've read months or even years ago, yes some dated back in 2007, and found the NEW icon next to every single post in there, including my own!

The NEW icon is totally worthless as far as I'm concerned.

Every one knows that clockwise means "okay."

If it's not going to work, then it's going in the wrong direction.

@ 9.15PM. Getting to be a weekly event and often on a weekend. Whoever it is that is holding onto it don't let it go on the weekend. :p

Not working here since late Thu. night.

Drop-down also just keeps going in circles.

I never had problems with My Workspace using FF2 ir FF3 either. I used to run AdBlock but turned it off as I seldom experienced long page loads for FF.
Using Opera is like the difference between night and day for browsing TR. Fast and stable. Tammy said that TR has no plans to optimize their code for Opera. I don't think they need to; works just fine.

Everyone doesn't do exactly as I do. :0 If more people would listen to me there'd be a LOT less hassle. :D

by rob miners

to be experiencing different things at different times. I have even logged on with a different System only to have the same experience. The next time it happens I will logon to a System with another account and see if there is any difference. Completely cleaning out IE8 hasn't worked for me.
I haven't had the circles for awhile now though.

by rob miners

fine at the moment apart from the Contacts not showing. I noticed that the search for users is now working properly. There also seems to be a glitch when a couple of people post at the same time. LOL I wonder what would happen if the 1.6 million members all posted together. Fireworks?

by seanferd

That's the same problem I get. The link won't open My Contacts, but I can get to My Workspace.

I just don't use these so much any more. I've been a bit absent as well, though.

by deepsand

Word has it that Unite is a security bomb waiting to go off.

As for Safari, it just now experienced the same problem re. My Workspace as do IE & FF.

Not surprising, since TR long ago acknowledged that the problem lay with their proxy servers.

by ontheropes

If it ain't broke, don't fix it. I used to experiment all of the time. Not anymore. I'm satisfied with how everything is working now.

by santeewelding

Overtake you sooner than they do me.

I said elsewhere with respect to not meeting in Louisville that I should like to have embraced you.

That still holds, assuming you could remember.

But, chronic sinusitis, arthritis & degenerative discs take their toll.

On the bright side, blood pressure naturally lower than most; so, likewise, risk of sudden cardiac arrest.

Davette that's not TR it's Vissy. The Rubbish Removal Firm here that is confused. :p

OH did I get confused again between Vissy and Vista. They are both involved with rubbish so maybe not. :D

I can actually see Boxie and Santee in My Contacts. I also noticed that they are sporting new avatars. Could the problem have been with Santee not having an avatar originally and Boxies just not displaying for some unknown reason. Avatar?

by boxfiddler Hot topic

It might be a browser thing. I'm using IE tonight. FF crashed awhile ago, and I fired up IE instead of it again. I've got none of the anti-this 'n that on IE that I have on FF. Too rarely use it.

What idiot thought it a good idea to put 'refresh' on the opposite side of the window as 'forward' and 'back'?
Dim.

by rob miners

LOL I logged right out of the site and then back in to make sure that I wasn't dreaming and you were both there. Now I don't know if changes were made to the site or it was something to do with your avatars. Whatever, it's great to have you all back. :D

by rob miners

FF configuration has to be the culprit. I only use IE and have done forever. Actually since we moved to IE instead of Netscape and I've used IE since. About 13 years.

by boxfiddler Hot topic

with noscript and Ad-block since before my avatar disappeared from your view. I think the culprit is the upgrade. Two cents...

by rob miners

if you have blocked you avatar for viewing somehow in FF. Interesting to see next time you use FF. What about Santee, how long has he had an avatar. :)

by boxfiddler Hot topic

We changed for the 3-Day. Been about a month maybe?
I haven't been able to see santee online since the latest upgrade. Though tonight, with IE, I could.

Maybe noscript and Ad-block have something to do with it...

by hal 9000

Boxy broke TR yet again. Nothing new there as it's a regular thing with her. ;)

We just keep her around to see what she breaks next. :D

Col 0:-)

by boxfiddler Hot topic

Hmmm.
Can you see if santee is online? He posted a little while ago.
I can't see him...

by rob miners

either. It must be a FF thing if Santee is using it as well. I'm sure that OM uses it but he is always displayed.

by santeewelding

Like many here, I maintain an updated IE8 as an occasional check against FF. But, default is FF. I don't like being without NoScript and AdBlock.

by rob miners

it looks like the script is only loading up to here.

Edit: trying to bet it to show

by rob miners

my main System up in the house on and off this morning. I've been gap filling so when I finished I logged back in to find that the page isn't displaying. I logged out and deleted everything in IE and logged back in and it wasn't fixed. I logged in with an alternate account and checked the source for the page, over 800 lines of code. I then logged in as JH again and checked the source only 300 lines of code.
I then came down to the shed and I have the same problems. I don't thing that it's my end.

by santeewelding

On both my independent systems. I know it ain't me.

When I refresh, I get a skeletonized version. If I refresh that, the forum goes back to normal, updated display.

by rob miners

your suggestions to no avail. At least it doesn't seem to take more that a day for it to come good.

by nicknielsen

800 lines for the alternate account and only 300 for you? Definitely strange. The only persistent problem I've been having recently is the traditional 404 when I first access my Workspace or Updates. A refresh after the page loads gives good results.

The rest of the persistent problems disappeared about a month ago after I fat-fingered (twice identically, no less) while changing my master PW. I broke down, nuked and reinstalled FireFox, and haven't had a problem other than the initial Workspace load.

You didn't forget to pay your membership fees, did you? :D

by rob miners

I did pay the first year that I joined but I didn't get anything out of it. I did ask nicely if I could keep up my non financial membership though and the PTB agreed that I could. So I don't think that it would be the case.

I haven't had a 404 for ages and the site has been good for awhile now. It's also interesting that sometimes when I logon with an alternate account it will open up as JH.

by rob miners

we're up and running again. Well at least I am.

There you go, all corrected. Will I remember that next time????????

by santeewelding

Put a period after, "OK." Capitalize the a in, "All's well", and, period.

Comma after, "Well".

The impact you already enjoy with me would be magnified to all get-out.

I would have to pull up my socks and straighten my tie every time you speak. I retain more, that way.

by santeewelding

So long as I pay attention...and impale your ass.

Revamp yet again your punctuation and captitalization in your latest. Remember real hard what you were taught, and, apparently, forget.

What all you have to offer, otherwise, suffers.
