I'll try it but are you saying the upload feature of the forums is down forever or is there an ETA of repair? Much easier than photobucket by using the forum uploader.

It is not "broken", just simply unavailable for us members to use. It was taken down because uploaded pics were taking too much space in the FX-Sabers database. ;) ;)

Extreme difficulty in sending a pm.  The line I am typing on disappears below the window so I am unable to see what I am typing until I get to the next line.  It is almost impossible to go back and edit the pm.

I have had this happen once before on the forum about a year? ago.

what browser are you using and what version of Windows and what is your screen resolution?
all of those cold effect that...


and for the record I use the latest version of Firefox and Chrome and have no problems with the forums. but I also have really fast DSL here at my office.
May the Lord of the force be with you.

I had that issue a few times when I downloaded the new piece of worm ridden filth of a new Microsoft Explorer. :D I uninstalled it and have not had too many issues since.

Like ALL Microsoft's products, they are made to fail. ;)

My previous posted issues had gone away for a few weeks, but now I'm having a new one. Rarely happens while I'm moving around the forum, but when I'm surfing something else or come back to my PC after leaving the forums up like I always do its generated an IE error and closes after clicking through. Happened 5-6 times this week so far. Not getting it with any other sites and I haven't upgrade to the Internet Exploder yet so its not that. I guess I could try a different browser too, but so used to IE from all my work stuff not working with anything else  >:(

Oh I do like firefox, but a lot of my vendor apps simply will not run at all in anything but IE and that is all they are certified to work in. I have other tools that won't work in IE either so go figure. I have both installed on every machine I own so just a matter of retraining my mind to use the other instead.

I've been having the same issues as Master Durangus.  Using Firefox, until I saw this, I attributed it to my ISP in Kuwait......  I still think they have an impact on my issues, cause it is not only this site.

I had the same issues as Aelde and MD earlier today. Everything seems to be working fine now though. ;) ;)

There is definitely issues that occur with this site.  When loading anything yesterday, whether it was a text response or pictures, there was either a significant delay or a straight time out.

I am using Firefox and have had no issues on any other sites that I have been posting threads in.  RPF, Rebelscum, 501st Spec Ops, 501st Sith Lords, etc. etc.  so it's obviously something involving this site specifically.

I'm having the same problem as Darth Raijlin, I can't post a new thread at all.  The other boards I post on seem to be working fine, so I think it's localized.

I even tried using IE and it didn't change anything.  Still can't load pictures.

Are you using Windows?  I'm on a Mac now, I'm going to see if this works any better.

Everyone... I just spoke with Yoda and we are now working on the forum issues. (There are a few). Please be patient with slow-downs etc... they will be fixed shortly.
Also, Please continue using this topic to post any other issues so we can diagnose them as well (if you are able). Thanks.
