I time out very quickly and cannot post

but your post is up.

????

Every now and then I get some extra characters in the following url:

www.abovetopsecret.com / YdZmZ / forum / new_topics.php

Notice the YdZmZ ???

Additionally these letters are somewhat random/change ... but are in the same location within the url.

I'm either refreshing the page OR clicking the "new" link.

( and trying to narrow this down )

Its been off and on for abit .
Try refresh, i am going through the same thing .
Staff are ontop of it though so it should be fixed soon .
Trying it a couple of times works too, The whole website is going through some stuff atm .
I think there is a thread somewhere that details the issues .

It works it just takes abit of fiddling .

EDIT: Refreshing seems to do the job.

If ya time out, try hitting the refresh button then resubmit on some browsers. Don't hit the back button.

UPDATE !!!

I just clicked the "new" link and got the following url:

www.abovetopsecret.com / VMjlZ / forum / new_topics.php

Notice the VMjlZ.

It's RANDOM.

Now I'm looking to see if the "new" link contains these RANDOM characters before I click "new" or if it's after I click "new".
.

I refresh and then resubmit, and the post "takes".

Im A NOVICE ?????

Testing 1 2 3 4 testing

Boy, I'm glad I didn't make a ridiculous post like I did before to test it.


I suppose this is happening so we learn to make quick short posts?

Don't take what I post personally ...

I'm simply-assuming the folks Working-the-Problem(S) are monitoring these posts.

Skeptic Overlord is aware of the problem....been happening off and on through the last few hours.

I am tech challenged....so can offer no reason for the problem.

Until it is resolved:
1. try hitting refresh.
2. copy your posts before you hit reply.....especially if they are lengthy.

.

It's some sort of REDIRECT because before clicking the "new" link, it did NOT have the Extra-RANDOM-Characters.

There must be some sort of CODING that's placing those characters into the url AFTER clicking the "new" link ...

SO

I must assume that is doesn't matter if I had REFRESH'd the page or CLICKED the "new" link.
.
( and hope this helps to narrow the problem(s) )

It is NOT a redirect. It's extra ICMP traffic.

It's a problem for everyone right now, not just you.

Please be patient.

All caps is not helping you communicate at all. It's considered impolite. I know you're freaking out a bit, but unlocking the caps lock key will help the rest of us stay calm
