Posting & PM problem

Postby Cartar on Tue Nov 03, 2009 2:29 am

Every once in a while this happens to me that I can't post nor PM to anybody. After I try to post it, it gives a blank reply space again. The most recent occasion was like an half an hour ago. Also I tryed to log out and try to log in again, but I couldn't, it didn't show any error page or nothing, just didn't log in. Anyone else has experienced similar problem?

It happened again today, it's quite annoying, just when I try to post, it says: No post mode specificated or something.

Everything's working fine for me and I haven't had any other reports of it happening. That said, if it is happening to anyone else please speak up so we can work out what might be causing it.

What kind of security software are you running at the moment?

Do you run noscript or any other firefox security add ons? Are you sure you are clicking the right button?

I remember writing a message in the quick reply box and accidentally clicking "post reply" instead of "submit" thinking that would actually post it, and then it opens the window with a blank form, ignoring what I wrote.

Seems unlikely to be the problem then, I'm running AVG and using IE 8 without any issues.

No, No, Yes.

Like said before, when I click submit, it sometimes shows just a blank reply page, but also sometimes it shows note "no post mode specificated". I guess the problem was for me only for some reasons, thus I will just try to ignore it the next time

Try using a different browser and see if you still encounter the problem.

That would be my suggestion too. If you're using IE 8, you might also want to try using Compatibility View with the Forum.

Nope, Chrome. If it won't work next time, I'll try Firefox then.

Same happened to me long time ago. IE8 with AVG. Doesn't happen now. Forgot what exactly I did that solved it, may be the compatability view like Andrew said.
