GFY Admins please read having troubles with the site for 3 weeks now - GoFuckYourself.com

eroswebmaster · 01-22-2006, 01:29 PM

For about 2-3 weeks now everytime I try to go to the boards using Firefox / Mozilla the site hangs and never opens.

Sometimes I can access it using IE, but even when I do access it using IE the only thing I can do is respond to posts using the quick reply button.

I can read threads and respond using the quick reply button but if I decide to post a new thread, or hit the reply button or click on "use advanced features" the page hangs.

I can't edit existing posts either.

I am not the only person who is esperiencing this. There have been threads about this popping up a few times.

Now that the site has been upgraded and there is no quick reply form at the bottom of threads I can't even reply now. I might as well be banned at this point because that's about as useful as my account is.

I hope you guys can get this rectified.

Sure I can make a post now, but this is just like last week where I was able to for about 2 days as well.

Do you have another desktop or laptop to try with? It sounds like a personal problem.

It's not a personal problem.

There have been posts by people like MrPheer, DeanCapture etc who are having the same problems.

It isn't an isolated problem because I've been having the same exact troubles. They know about it too, but can't seem to figure it out.

For everyone its happening to, its been like 2-3 weeks, so a couple weeks ago they must have made some changes. I wish they would figure it out.

There are a LOT of people complaining about this. Texasdreams has commented on another board that he's working on it but just can't seem to isolate the problem

Moose · 01-22-2006, 01:37 PM

Sly is having the same problem too.

EDIT...thought you couldn't get here Sly

I get the impression that lag is a natural property of FF. Happens to me wherever I go.

Okay. I notice that when I type responses there is a noticable delay before the text appears on the screen. I thought I was just typing too fast for FF as it crashes on me sometimes when I get into a typing groove.

LOL sorry man but you keep responding to stuff I already addressed in my post.

#1 It's not just me.
#2 It occurs in Firefox, Mozilla, and IE.
#3 I get days like this where I can use the site. It occurs for like 1-2 days and then goes back to be totally clusterfucked.

So I don't know if the new upgrade resolved the issues or if sometime tomorrow I'm back to being virtually banned.

Glad to hear.

So in the meantime I hope they put in the quick reply box because it was the only feature on this site I could use...LOL

It seriously took me about 5 times to get on GFY this morning. It goes in phases. Now that Quick Reply is gone maybe things will get better.

And stop winking at me. Twink.

TheDoc · 01-22-2006, 01:45 PM

Use IE, it's better anyway.

Spunky · 01-22-2006, 02:37 PM

Have you tried Opera?..I sometimes have problems with IE on here but never Opera

JamesK2 · 01-22-2006, 02:43 PM

Do you use Google Web Accelerator? Disable it.

My fav browser being whatever is my opinion, but IE being the better browser isn't an opinion. NetS once was the strongest browser, when IE finally upgraded and created a better browser, NS died. And as soon as someone finally makes a decent browser, it will overtake IE. FF isn't even close to being in competition with IE. Surfers will stay with the browse that causes the least amount problems while surfing, and the browser with fewest issues currently is IE.

Personally, I find FF slower, but it has some cool features and add-ons. I do have ff installed, but I don?t use it to check my adult site layouts with, it's pointless. I use it to make sure my webmaster areas work with it though, since a large amount of webmasters seem to prefer it over IE, mostly due to the tab surfing and what they think is a more secure browser.

I know IE has security holes. All browsers & software do, the only reason you know and hear about IE problems, and as often as you do, is because those people often target the most popular products for exploits, and the media reports every single attack.

Dude you are totally off base. Firefox is becoming the standard. Go look at your user info from the stats on your sites. If you can filter it to only Americans Firefox is way up there. It will edge out IE soon.
