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 believe you. I don’t know exactly how they target the ads, but there must be lots of formulas that they use...including spamming the ads to everyone.
A Freeper for eight years and can't do basic HTML? Tsk tsk...
If I can do it, anyone can.
That’s the point. We hadn’t done an internet search. We just talked about it. Then here come the pop ups.
Believe me. That TV you’re watching, that computer monitor...all two way communications. Laugh if you want. Just like all the people who laughed when people said the government was spying on it’s citizens via FB. They’re spying on us with cameras and microphones that WE brought into our homes. We volunteered.
I thought about buying a book ... then I said heck ... I’d rather contribute to keeping this site running .... Am guilty ... guilty ... guilty.
Confession is good for the soul ... so am going to confess. I do go occasionally to the html fun page to learn something every once in a while. I have it bookmarked. Am guilty ... guilty ... guilty.
VERY buggy.

They need to invest in their infrastructure. If only there was a way to raise money to do that. Hmmm . . .
Define "works".
You're a good soul, my friend. If there's anything I can do to help you learn the basics, please let me know :-)
Thank you .... I prefer to fall down, get up, fall down, get up, fall down ... well I think you understand.
I sincerely thank you for offering to help someone is being a friend. Friends are difficult for each of us to find. Thank you .... will rest now ... hope you rest well this night also.
You're better than most, because you have the simple honesty to admit to something we all do.
you are so kind and modest also. You have made my night of rest begin in peaceful bliss. Thank You!
You’re welcome. I’m only too glad to help if you ever want it. I very much enjoy your input on the forum.
Problem could be software related.
New hardware was installed at the time of the extended Free Republic blackout in February of this year, and it has been super fast since then.
The “short page” bug has been around since before that, and I don’t think the cause of it has been found yet.
This new “blank page” bug is worrying, but I trust that John will be working to fix it.
The problem is not hardware related. The problem is that this forum runs on obsolete, proprietary code. My professional opinion is that the entire program should be rebuilt in a different framework, but nobody has asked my opinion.
Is that why the pages come up short...I keep trying to locate where you extend the pages and even when adjusted it comes back eventually....so we have a page bug of some sort.
