ben, I'm having some problems with the forum. everytime I want to post stuff, the site doesn't work I need to refresh the page, but that too doesn't work for me. everytime I need to start another internet-flip-thingie to go to the forum again. is it something you can fix or is it just my computer that needs a good look and a repair?

thanks

(if there is already a topic for this, just move it svp, I couldn't find one...)

hmmmm.....exactly when & what happens M?

Posting pictures, or replying to posts, adding topics?

Let me know & I try and figure it out.................anyone have any probs?

"internet-flip-thingie"

I have no idea what that means!

with the internet flip thingie I meant the Internet-explorer-browser button on the desktop.

I have that problem when I want to reply to a post and when I click the forumbutton in the toolbar (you know: home, forum, fantasy motogp, motogp etc. that bar) when I want to reply (this is what happend when I replied in the qatar topic yesterday) the page says that there's an error on the page and that I need to try again later or refresh it. (but refreshing it doesn't work)

It's the same when I want to go to the forum: it takes ages to load and then it says that I need to refresh the page, but again refreshing doesn't work.

I had this problem a couple of times before, but it's strange that other times I can just post away and there's nothing that says that there's "an error on the page".

If I'm the only one having this problem, I guess it's my computer that makes the errors, then I'll ask my dad if he can sort it out, maybe it's my internet provider who's making the problem

been havin no problem's marijke. prob ur pc or serv provider

Hey marijke

Next time it does it, press the print screen button and paste it into microsoft paint (or whatever graphics program you have) and post it here or email me & we can try and figure out whats going on

hmm, since the page is all in dutch, I don't know if it's helpfull. I've tried to translate some, maybe you can recognize the page

it says:

This page cannot be shown

The page whom your looking for, is not available at the moment. There might be some technical problems with the website or you must try to adjust your browsersetups.

try this:

- click the button refresh or try again later
- control if you correctly have spelled the website adress
etc etc

I realy appreciate your help ben, if you need more translation of that dutch-page, I'll do that

The page you get just means you are offline, that's why it can't find the page.

I can think of 2 reasons for your problem:

1) You are having problems with your ISP (Internet service provider). Your computer is OK because otherwise it would never work, it wouldn't behave randomly like it does. It's not your fault, your ISP should solve it.

2) It could be that you are overloading the connection, if you have emule or something similar running at full speed may create that kind of problems and makes IE very slow. If you get the problem try setting emule to minimun upload and download rates (or shut it down) and try again to use IE it should work fine if this is the problem.

Ditto what Teo said! I think your isp is being un-reliable.........................does it just happen with this site?

BTW..... http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/ is better internet browser imo...............tabbed browsing rocks!

teo I was thinking about offline and overloading my connection. it's realy stupid actually that I didn't think of it earlier:

my dad placed a router (don't know if this is the correct english word) a couple of months ago so that my sister's computer has internet as well.... everytime when she is on her comp, I have the problems with the forum. maybe that's overloading the connextion/blocking the forum??

I'll ask my dad to disconnect the router tonight, maybe it helps ben thanks for the link, I'll give the link to my dad as well

I think you sister is using most of the bandwith leaving you with almost nothing, maybe she is the one downloading too much.

I suggest you shut down your sister's connection.

How much bandwith do you have?

I realy have no clue what bandwiths are I'll need to ask my dad that too (thank god for my dad ey )

yeah I'm having a problem, yet again. if I want to go to a topic I get a 'page not found' refreshing the page doesn't work either... see:  slide_printscreen.bmp ( 1.33MB ) Number of downloads: 21

same happens if I want to go to the forum using the homepage

is it me and my computer, or did something changed in the forum? I have this problem for a couple of days now, and only when I use the home-computer (if I use the ones at uni, I don't have this problem)

--------------
edit: same happend when I wanted to post this message: page not found

Its coz we have a special module called "Mess with Dutch People's Heads".

The site will do random things if your Dutch, and you are Dutch M

I'll do some testing, but everything has been fine for me?

I'd suggest it could be something on your PC, but I really dont know what.

Just happens with this site then?

very funny Ben

it only happens with this site yeah. and I noticed some other things too, the links to the forum are different too: first it was just www.powerslide.net/forum, and now it's www.powerslide.net/forum/forums.html

and going from the main forum page to the newest post doesn't work either with me

another thing: if I post the last reply in a topic, the topic-icon thing still says I haven't read the topic, while I'm the last one posting a reply

I have the same issue, except mine is in English. When I try to click on Last Post button, I get that. When I post I get and have to refresh a few times before my post is shown on the main screen.

me to but not just with this site. i think it may be a browser issue, i expect there will be some updates soon.
im using firefox/2.0.0.12

Could someone post an English screen grab if they have problems please? Or M could you translate the error please

Could just be a co-incidence, but I installed some new software on the forum yesterday.

translation:

Yeah, I couldn't get past the powerslide.net screen. Talked to curve last night and he said the same. The only way I got into to post this was I got a email from the forum that my membership was to expire today?

What's the deal?
