Forums are buggy lately

Posted on 08/18/2013 7:53:35 PM PDT by jsanders2001

Has anyyone else noticed that the website has been glitchy / basically acting up as though it is being redirected at times? Sometimes it will just sit there for a bit and I'll have to reload the page or it will jump back and orth into other forums without warning (yes, I've lcleared my caches, rebooted thecomputer and router and still having issues.I'm wondering if the site has been hacked or if there are just server issues. Anyone noticed anything strange?

I’m highly suspicious that FR is being monitored. Yep, paranoid. I’ll own it.

I've been here for 14 years. There's never been a moment in all that time I've had any doubts about being monitored -- not just by NSA but by the Chinese, the Democrat National Committee, the Russians, Al Sharpton, Big Sis, Google, Yahoo, Jay Z, Bill & Hillary, ad infinitum.

The guy who wrote the definitive book about Joe McCarthy originated the Law of Insufficient Paranoia: no matter how bad you think it is, the reality is much, much worse.

This is the first time I’ve seen it. . .I’m getting a blank screen when clicking on “Post Reply” and also on some links to articles. Loads on second try (reload).

Ditto. Lots of triple posts happening on various threads, too.

It's like FR has the hiccups, or something ;)

Yup. This site is under CONSTANT attack from leftscum hackers. Frankly, I am surprised it even works. Kudos to Jim Robinson and his people!

Yeh, I just keep carefully hitting reload. Works even when preview / posting.

While I am not so shy to post most anything, I did put my FR profile on hold.

I think everyone is being monitored everywhere. The other day my wife and I were talking about buying something. I can’t remember what it was. Anyway, the next time I went online I got a pop up advertising the very thing we were talking about. Bring on the tin foil! Because we REALLY need it.

Advertising is “personalized” based on the words in web searches that you do.

Trouble is they probably already have a screen shot.

Had to reload 4 times to comment. Also got a blank screen for a FReeper’s profile page.

Had to reload and resend after hitting the “Post” button on the Reply page.

I seriously wonder about that. Sometimes, that seems to be the case. Other times, however, the ads are just strange. I do not know why I get ads for meeting single men when I use Pandora or Facebook. I swear, I do not go to singles sites. Yet, there are the ads.

I've been married for over 30 years.

Oh, come on! Everyone knows that the proper thing to say in a situation like this is: What's the frequency, Kenneth?

Keep getting a blank page, if I page back and then return to the page it is OK. Never seen that one before.

Yes. Started last night. FReep wouldn’t load at all and I finally gave up — wondered if it were going to be down for days again.

Still getting server error, although it’s reloading after two or three tries.
