Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    Unfortunately the backend returned an error and could not fulfill this request. Please try again or return to the homepage.

    Also getting cloudflare kicking in. Are we under attack?

    Hi Harry Palmr,

    There were some issues over the weekend, but everything should be back to normal again.

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

    Hi folks, as highlighted by hullaballoo here - https://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2058112220 - there was a spate of spam accounts being registered and these errors were likely a knock-on effect of this kind of activity. Sorry for the disruption, but we are trying to keep on top of things. The sign-in/sign-up does seem to be impacted at the moment. I would also advise copying any post that you have typed up in case of an error (I have been getting some database errors when trying to post).

    Apologies for the issues over the weekend everyone, there were some database issues causing problems on Saturday night and early Sunday which the team resolved but the breaking news about potentially moving to Level 5 restrictions caused a huge influx of traffic to the site (probably in addition to the soccer) and the site became unstable. Things should be much more stable today. Thanks for your patience, I appreciate it was a frustrating experience.

An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
