Boards does not work on my Phone

Wifi or 3G doesn't work. Even when I’m on my 240 meg connection at home, boards doesn’t work anymore. Site has been broken for months.

Can’t even post on PC normally, as it always makes me do a Recaptcha or three, (even when I’m already logged in!) that usually times out and fails on the first one or two goes so you have to go back and type everything in again. And Again. It’s just not worth the hassle anymore.

What on earth is wrong?

Can you try incognito mode and see if that fixes it?

Failing that can you let me know what OS and browser you're using?

How can I? User's guide to some features on the new site

Same happening for me. Not sure when the problem started. At least a few days ago. Was definitely working fine about 2-3 weeks back.

Using Android 6.0 (6.13.771.4) and Chrome. Have cleared cache and cookies, but no improvement. Going into incognito, it works fine, but that is obviously not a permanent solution!

I've had this a few times and been able to resolve it each time. Please see my workaround here if that helps: http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?p=101290664#post101290664

Thanks, but this is the only site I visit where I get this problem so I think rather than that rigamarole it would be better if the site was fixed so it doesn't happen.
