It’s not an ad running. It’s part of the framework on the forum page.
lit happens after I post.

Are you referring to the orange loading bar?

Yes but it must be loading something I’m not aware of. If I post it flashes and keeps flashing.
if it can be a normal progress bar with the slide across it would be less annoying.

I just posted this message and it flashes non stop afterwards. It’s actually flashing as I’m writing now.

It disappears almost instantly for me. Can I get some more information from you?

• Which device and browser are you using? Is everything fully updated?
• Are you using any browser plugins/extensions that block scripts/ads?
• Have you tried clearing your browser cache?

Can you respond to my other questions too, please?

[mmhotrod]

Yes yes and yes. Just go on an iPhone iPad or Mac computer and use Firefox. What else do you need.?

I am not certain why you are experiencing this unless there is a connectivity issue.

I am still trying to replicate it.

It’s part of your framework. It’s not a connectivity issue. The software.

Is anyone else seeing this?

 

[1946Austin]

I see it for a couple seconds when I post a reply. Then it goes away.

Why is this forum letting people join with this subject matter. Wake up people. Tighten the reins. Don’t expect the local admins to keep playing goalie all day long. This is unacceptable. do something about it or I’m outta here. I’m not gonna be a part of this anymore.

Never saw that one Mario, until you pointed it out. Banned another one, and deleted his whacky post.

I don’t expect you catch all the posts. It’s no fun having to deal with these whacky new posts. I just wanted to let the so called IT engineers what a debacle this new site is becoming. I will say one positive thing and that is Rik is posting fine. Lol

Is there a way to change this software, or modify it so users can delete a thread they started?
The way it's set up now if a user starts a thread or makes a post they can only edit it, not delete it. So if someone wants a thread deleted that they started, like a notice of something for sale like on Ebay, etc., they have to contact an Admin to get it deleted. Just creating more trouble for the person who started the thread, and an Admin who has to delete it later.
If the person who started a thread could delete it (like the old system allowed) it would simplify things for everyone.

Thanks for taking up the topic Vall. Maybe coming from an administrator the suggestion will get more traction than it did from me.
