Connection problems on Sunday

[Soary Stars]

Did anyone else have a problem getting on this site on Sunday?

I tried all day - no go.
The rest of the internet was A ok.

I did. Martin sent me a link via MSN which opened the site via Internet Explorer. All other browsers would not open the site until around 11pm.

 

[Soary Stars]

Cheers for that. I wondered if it was my ISP here. (using Firefox)

 

[redhead]

Same here.

 

[Grey]

And here, even though I use Internet Explorer.

Me too.

Couldn't connect to TH yesterday afternoon, either.

 

[Bar the Bull]

I was able to get in all day, and any time I was in, I was the only member browsing the forum.

I put up tips for Navajo Chief at 25/1 and Dazinski at 20/1, but they seem to have disappeared.

 

[Soary Stars]

Always the way, huh?
Managed to get 4 trifectas, me.

 

[Bar the Bull]

I actually was able to log in all day, though.

 

[del boy]

I was able to log in also.

 

[granger]

I couldn't log in most of Tuesday and wed

 

[On The Bridle]

I had hoped I was barred...

What browser do you use?
Has that anything to do with it?
Do you just go directly to http://www.talkinghorses.co.uk/forum?
Or some other addy?

Glad it wasn't just a technotwit like me, then, as I always initially assume it's something I've done wrong - had just used CrapCleaner, so wondered if it had been a bit too draconian in its cleansing. I got the site, but couldn't get into it. Every time I clicked onto a topic, I got the 'Cannot display this page' box from IE.

 

[Bar the Bull]

I use Internet Explorer at work, which is where I was.

I logged into http://www.talkinghorses.co.uk/forum

Off topic, but could people stop using links to betting sites and using bad language unless completely necessary. Our security people are obviously concerned that younger members of the coporation may become corrupted if they view such things and have blocked any page with such content. It is becoming increasingly difficult to doss at work anymore.

 

[Soary Stars]

Could you put up some expressions ...
... then say what you'd prefer instead?

For instance, 'shite' to be spelt as, how about 'Berry'?
(a little harsh, but so is he. and you know who you are!)

What a shower of c**ts.

 

[Gearoid]

Where are there links to betting sites on the forum?

I only use bad language when it's absolutely fuck**g necessary...

Actually I think the problem is links to youtube and the racing post - both also banned. I think they have classified words like Betfair and Ladbrokes as dirty words. Some pages that I can't get into because of "Adult Content" or "gambling" I can't see any reason for whatsoever.

 

[Melendez]

Ahh I don't know. I can get into this still after mention Betfair. **** to that.

Second expiriment for bad language was spoiled by the boards nasty language controller. I give up seems pretty random.

 

[Bar the Bull]

Just get back to work and stop dicking around.

 

[Melendez]

Sorry sir.
