    It's p1ssing me off big-time at this stage. Double posting, slow or no refreshing, pages repeating themselves. Either get it right or shut the shop altogether.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 832 ✭✭✭Notavirus.exe


    Very slow loading, so yes.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,610 ✭✭✭shocksy


    Yes, and it's been an on going issue these days, they would want to sort it out once and for all.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 920 ✭✭✭Bored_lad


    Ya its been awful the last few days at this stage it really us just unacceptable and needs to be sorted out immediately.

    There's a thread in feedback about this but they can't even be arsed to give an update.

    Mention the word "traveller" and they're all over you like a rash.

    You're acting as if your life depends on the upkeep of this site.

    If I have to return to the real world, I'll be angry. I may even sue. :mad:

    Immigrants have probably chewed through the wires at boards.ie HQ.

    Post moderation and site development/administration are two very different things, though.

    They must be tinkering with the systems :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,438 ✭✭✭✭endacl


    Is it the 'improvements'? I suspect things may be going the way of Microsoft. Take something that works perfectly well for the average user. Decide it needs 'improving', based on what developers imagine normal people would find 'totally awesome'. Implement changes. Bollix things up.

    Can we go back to boards.ie XP, please? That worked fine.

    Haha no I don't use boards that much but when you have a site like boards with full time staff, as revenue, talk to forum revenue I would expect they wouldn't be having issues like this.

    To Boards.ie

    I am really peeved because the site I use for free, YOUR SITE is not working the way I expect it to.

    I DEMAND that you fix it immediately.

    Petr Olcan

    There, that'll sort it!

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,363 ✭✭✭KingBrian2


    It is completely messed up. I thought it was my confounded machine but no it is definitely Boards.ie. So glad to know other people are experiencing what I am going through, the place is falling down, not connecting for me.:(


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 832 ✭✭✭Notavirus.exe


    After posting, it's unnecessary to wait for it to load. You can click the name of the thread and it will instantly bring you to the last page of the thread and your post will be there, no need to wait like 30 seconds for it to load.

    It's not really that free when you consider the income generated from everyone of us who accidentally clicks those far too big for the page ads.

    On that note, the one thing that didn't disappear from that SQL issue last week was the poxy ad!

    have you any idea how much it costs to keep hamsters fed ?

    Can't be as expensive as making a few clicks on a computer or pressing restart on the system running Boards.

    I think he meant free to the user.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 832 ✭✭✭Notavirus.exe


    Who dares DDOS Boards? Admins, I insist you give me their IP. I will track them down and I will make them pay for this ****.

    Some of the 'consumers' of boards.ie consider it a product despite not having paid a Pfennig for it. Funny that.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 1,570 ✭✭✭The Sidewards Man


    All the faux outrage.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 723 ✭✭✭Luke92


    Yeah just a little bit broken earlier but seems to be better now. I'm just waiting on my phone to charge to 100% so I can go asleep. Was quite bored without boards.

    What an exhilarating life I lead.

    Ads? What ads?

    Anyway, how much do you pay to boards.ie to use it?

    I pay them in minutes of my life. So yeah I expect a decent service.

    Unique set of skills, eh?

    You'll need to quantify your life and how each minute is costed.

    Pre VAT is okay as I'm good at mafamatiks.

    The humane thing to do at this point would be to put a bullet in its brain server.

    Actually a long time before that, but I forgot my password/no longer used that e-mail address and had to re-register.

    And now you've made me feel like I'm a naughty girl and need to be punished. :(

    I don't know who you are. I don't know what you want. If you are looking for ransom, I can tell you I don't have money. But what I do have are a very particular set of skills, skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you. If you let my daughter go now, that'll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don't, I will look for you, I will find you, and I will kill you.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 832 ✭✭✭Notavirus.exe


    I have an addiction to Boards. I spend hours each and every day on this site.

    If I'm going to waste my life, I want to waste it on something good.

    Now all I can think about is the "Cops" theme tune.

    Bad Boards, bad Boards.
    What you gonna do?
    What you gonna do when it won't load for you?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,396 ✭✭✭DivingDuck


    The site is now so slow that by the time that last post showed for me, it already had thanks on it.

    Either the site has a time machine, or it's utterly FUBAR.
