I have less than a fifty percent chance of seeing my posts today and yesterday. I tried to answer back two different people who sent me Private Messages on this Forum and it didn't work...today and yesterday.

Is there a virus, a ransom or a new moderator who has it in for me????

I use a web browser here and lately I have noticed I have to refresh the page before I see my post. I assumed it was my bowser since I enjoy running beta software and it usually has some issues. Maybe it is the site.

It's the vBulletin backbone of the site. Someone did some configuring of something and it changed the user experience.

All the posts you posted, were posted. They're right there. You can't see them for around a minute, but they're all there.

I don't know (since I don't have admin permissions) but it looks like whatever code functions allow people to see "new posts" when they click on "Forum New Posts" has an erroneous line in it now.

Took 7 times to sign in, each time a different issue. Once in I get misdirected and have to start over. Then anyone notice posts are duplicates.
No GG no one is after you in general, just the site you are trying to use. I am signing off (after 15 minutes of trying to get in) and see if admin can figure out what’s going on. Will try first of July see if there is a fix

Even though I am on the new version of the site I still see a red banner that tells me I am on the old version and I should switch on some posts, like this one.

I have a delay of up to seven minutes from when I push "Submit Reply" to when it shows up on the actual thread. Before that it is on the New Posts Thread. It varies though.

Default Interface of this site is screwed up somehow

I submitted a ticket as the sign in and log off functions are so messed up. Sign in and you return to sign in page. Sign in again and return to sign in page (again, and again, and again). Give up and just click on FORUM menu at top and select "TODAY'S POSTS" to get past "log in" to this forum. When you're done, click on Log Out and select OK in the pop-up box - return to page you were on (still logged in). Click on Log Out again and select OK (again). Repeat, repeat, repeat. . . Finally give up and just close the browser window or the open tab. That's my ticket.

Suggest a few more tickets be opened (via the "Contact Us" at the very bottom of each page). for the issues being seen. Mine was assigned a "Low" priority for being looked at. Maybe if more of us raise the issues, it will be worked. As someone smarter than texted above, there's something "wonky" in the software now.

I sent you a PM a couple of months ago......no reply so sounds like you did not get that one either. Now I can't remember why I wrote

I have noticed some strange operations also, mainly the login in problem, and the occasional post that did not post.
