Forum Just Stop
« on: December 14, 2014, 04:54:10 pm »
So recently the forum has been really weird lately. I would try to post something and it would repeatedly have it's session time out and logging back in wouldn't work. But now I think it's gone far enough. I was changing my siggy to this:

But then whenever I tried to click the button to apply the changes this popped up:
Honestly I was just changing my own signature and it says that.
I'm just plain annoyed now.

For the session timeout, log out of the forum completely and then log back in using the box located under the forum banner, not the box in the upper right-hand corner. You can try clearing your browser's cache, or even try using another browser all together if that helps.
As for the image, you could try using another browser to see if that works, or even resaving the file and changing the extension in a program like GIMP or even MS Paint. It happens from time-to-time, and usually waiting a day or so will clear it up. Also, sometimes having an apostrophe in your signature will trigger this oddly, and taking that out (if it's in there) will fix it.
(Also going to note that on your signature, the date of the party says "Dec. 30th" when the party is actually the 20th if it's for the official winter party. ;) Lovely photo edit though!~ )

EDIT: LOL I thought at first that the image would literally only come up as the link. Fixing this now done :)

EDIT: I tried to change my signature in Google Chrome and the same thing still pops up.

It's been like this since the 11th though. So I don't think it'll clear up that quickly.
My head messes up a lot whenever I'm tired so I think that's why I put Dec 30th. XD

And I first log in to the one under the banner and then the top right one.

Really? That's bizarre - Have you tried clearing your cache and restarting your browser yet? Changing the extension? There's a possibility that it'll work for you. If it doesn't clear up soon. (and you really want your signature to be changed), you should try PMing a global moderator or administrator if you need your signature changed.
Haha, no problem. I've done the same thing for another party - I edited my photo and everything and then I noticed the date was wrong. It happens.

That may be why; only log in under the banner next time and not the box next to it. See if the time outs clear up afterwards.

Just as an extra note about the time outs.. It happens to me ALL THE TIME.. What I do is I just open a new tab, get into the FH site on that new tab, log out, log back in then I have to click 'post' twice before it will post my message. You'll get that timeout message after the first retry but just click 'post' again and it should work..
At least that way you don't have to lose all what you've typed up just to log out and back in xD

Still it happens again, but it's starting to clear up.
