No it was doing that to me at the weekend. They did eventually get posted.

I seem to.get an inordinate number of cloudflare errors: timeouts. It passes the first two checks but then fails. It's not just one or two a day either. It work once to read a post and then stop as soon as I click on next or look at another post.

Getting this a lot, still.

Still happening all this time later!

Still happening all this time later! Even trying to post this reply resulted in a timeout!

It's a pain, but it might help a little if people lay off hitting the post button if something doesn't instantly upload.

 

If you're on a computer, you could try opening another browser tab to the new content page to confirm your submission got through instead - it almost always just needs a bit of time for the server to catch up

I have to say its been playing up big time tonight. Just trying to copy some pics off my Paddy build and it timeouts on every single page. 

 

Given up with it now and pinged Adam a msg.

Over the last week this has become much more frequent. I either can't get in at all, or you get 2 or 3 pushes of a button and then it's all over. Very frustrating trying to research things. Daz.

I've been having problems for at least a fortnight - I can open 2 or 3 posts and then it just goes into a spin and does nothing very frustrating

 

Sometimes like tonight I can logout and then log back in a few minutes later but with the same result, sometimes I cant even log back in

 

NB this is the first thing I did on being able to get in just in case it goes into a spin again

I don't know if it's related but.....
Last night I tried to post a new topic and when I tried to right click and paste Imgur code for my picture a little bubble popped up which said "read aloud" ??
Then the page behaved like I'd pressed the back button 100 times and I was back at my home screen so I gave up 😁

Did it last night too, I opened 2 posts ok then I tried to open this one and ironically it timed out, done it this morning too

I would say that this malfunctioning will unfortunately lead to degrading interest among us who is really interested.

It is not criticism to those who is trying fix the issues. It is more a fact and a hint to those who have knowledge in this area to step forward and help out.

This is the first time in 2 weeks I've managed to get onto the site. Similar issue with turbo minis

I also find The Mini Forum times out and has become almost impossible to read or post anything in recent weeks, unless you have a lot of patience. I would assume the daily post count has dropped off significantly if the problem is widespread amongst other forum members.

The having to press every link (been like this for years) will not help the server to function correctly.

That thought crossed my mind, so I posted a tempting title about Marcos with dull content, and in 2 days, over 700 people have hit it.

 

Sadly, no one has come up with a dull reply.
