I can't believe this just happened!!!

#1 2 years, 2 months ago
I spent two hours writing up a post updating my news and when I submitted, it vanished...

This is extremely frustrating. Now am too pissed to start again. Damn it.

I always write my posts as an email and then cut and paste it into EIR... I like the spell check in my email software better, and I've got a copy in case their is a problem posting.

Hope your news was good news anyway!

no what am saying is that the website is malfunctioning! and very often I can't access it too.

once I finished my message and tried posting, it vanished but the previous message posted...

maybe because it's in UK or something but I have a hard time with this website...

Hi Dechen,

Sorry you're having problems posting. If you are spending a long time writing posts you need to do like bolam56 says and write your posts in email software or a simple text editor like Notepad in Windows and then paste into the form here.

The problem is you are taking longer to write your posts than the site allows a user to be logged in without any activity (which writing a post is perceived as). This is to save on server resources and you will find most sites log you out after a certain period of time - usually an hour like here on EIR. This is not a problem with the site it's just how websites generally work.

The site is experiencing some performance problems after moving to a new server but if a page doesn't load just click refresh in your browser and it will load if you give it enough time. I know it's annoying but I simply don't have the time to get it fixed at the moment as I have assignments coming out of my ears trying to finish my degree. It's not a 5 minute (or probably even 5 day) job to get the site running more smoothly.

Please be patient I promise I am doing my best <br /><br />Post edited by: Maff, at: 2010/02/27 21:21

Thanks Matt...

I understand now maybe... Also just want to point out that sometimes, the EI website is just not accessible. So maybe it makes a difference in the number of people using it.

In any case, I like it a lot.
