Has anyone watched the HBO documentary Glickman?  It's a great thing to do during a timeout.

Yes.  If you hit post again, it works.

I get it all the time on Firefox. When it becomes so prevalent that I can't handle it, I open IE.

This is another example of impatience affecting your lives. Hitting the send button twice is a nonissue. Has anyone asked Ran for a refund?

Not impatient John.  Just wondering if I needed to sign in in a different way.

Back in the day when some posters used dial-up there were guys who would bitch about big pictures because of the load time. Those were some classic fights.

This lack of patience is killing a game that requires it more than any other trait. Everyone wants to play their grail NOW.  Everyone wants to hit NOW. Everyone wants to break 80 NOW. Everyone wants their precious opinions heard NOW. We need to be looking for ways to slow down. To think about what we are saying and doing. This little glitch is a blessing.

I get it all the time and have e-mailed Ran earlier in the week to let him know it's a bummer.  I hope he gets on it soon.

Some want to stay on the course and play 36 in the time others take to play 17!

That is a myth unless you are talking about two different courses. But then they aren't really golfing, are they.

My invitation to you is still open....matchplay naturally.

(and yes the slow players will be discoraged by the club 2 ball culture, but they are all over other courses and I don't think they are havaing as much fun.)

First world problem perhaps. But the rest of the first world has internet forums that don't throw random error codes on routine actions using bog-standard browsers. This forum software stinks but one must assume Ran prefers it for some reason having nothing to do with, you know, working properly. It's his forum and he can use broken hosting software if he likes.

Yes, and also under different circumstances, which I can't describe, but as frequently in the midst of trying to post, a message that my login failed: "Session verification failed. Please try logging out and back in again, and then try again."   I accept computer program screw-ups in this early stage of computer/internet/technology and just try to forge ahead.  It's no more than a little frustration and a couple more clicks.  Think where we'd be trying to do this 50 years ago.  Whoops.  Just got the timed-out message trying to post this.

I get this and then of course the preview never worked on this site and Search doesn't seem to work as well as other forums.

I wonder if the issue is that switching to other forum software would mean losing the history of all of the past threads and we certainly don't want that.

These problems have been happening ever since we had the outage a few weeks ago. Whatever happened caused these glitches.

It works very sporadically. Once it fails, it seems to fail repeatedly, but if you come back fresh after awhile sometimes it will work (like this time for me).

Preview worked for several years when I first joined. Now it hasn't been working for some time.

Just to add another possible glitch, whenever I log in I get a message saying incorrect password. When I try it again, it lets me in. And it does it all the time recently, so its not just a typo!  ::)

Cheers,

James

Preview function doesn't work. Hasn't for years.

Quoting a post doesn't work. Hasn't for years.

A few weeks back I started getting the "your session timed out..." message when I posted, even though I was sufficiently signed-in to then post it by trying again. Happens every time I post, now.

Just now I got for the first time "Session verification failed. Please try logging out and back in again, and then try again." when I tried to modify a post.

It's getting ridiculous. If Ran wants to pass a hat around to raise the required cost of fixing the software, I'll happily pitch in.

The quote function is working fine on my iPad.

Bill,

The above features don't work for a significant number of us, and the threads appealing for a fix are many.

It's interesting the features work for some and on some devices and not on others.   Sounds like a complete overhaul is required.   

Those who have not contributed to GCA.com recently, or ever, should think about doing so.  I'm sure the fix won't be inexpensive.

Bill,

I've had the above issues on 20+ computers and mobile devices across three countries, using 4-5 different browsers over the course of almost four years. Others have never experienced a single drama. Very strange.

As I said, I'll be happy to contribute to a fund that finances the repair of this site, because all the bugs are getting beyond a joke

Jon,
Legal, free, open source, PHP, MySQL. It doesn't get any freakin easier. 2.0 is stable, nice. Some computer whiz needs to volunteer time to Ran and Ben to bring this place into the 20th (sic) century!
