stud858 Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 The way expertise is charged to fault find, better off trashing the site. Start from fresh. Install new forum script and away you go. Nothing is repaired anymore. Your phone breaks. Throw it in the bin. Buy another. If I had the time and drive, I'd setup a free hosted site and make a new forum but instead I'll leave it up to someone else. Haha like most things that don't get done.

observer90210 Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 It's a pity as many will get discouraged from visiting or staying on the TV forum due to the very slow speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tropo Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 Very, very slow today. I load up a few topics in multiple tabs and then prepare coffee before coming back to read them... and that's with a 300 Mbps download speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somtamnication Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 It is a lot of work to run a website. I have and it is not fun. However, technical issues aside, maybe this is a bottleneck issue as all data is seen by Big Brother through BKK before it goes to Singapore, etc etc. Dunno!

Is it possible that the Junta is downloading everything ready to pounce, and send many of the posters to the monkey? Was surfing Thai Visa a few days ago when my laptop completely froze. Tried restarting but wouldn't restart. Just got a fatal error message. After a number of attempts, I had to reinstall Windows 10. After a couple of days of getting everything back to as was and making a couple of setting changes, TV is now running better than it has for a while. Not perfect, had a "502" this morning, but better. One thing I noticed was that I accessed TV from IE after the install and it was really slow and glitchy. Had the same problem when I first joined a few months ago and switched to accessing it via Microsoft Edge which gave me a near perfect TV at the time (pages always were and probably always will be a bit slow to load). Did this again and had a noticeable improvement again. When my laptop crashed, it made me wonder if the whole issue is the result of some sort of virus infecting the site. Surely not...…..

NCC1701A Posted December 25, 2018 Share Posted December 25, 2018 the forum is still extremely slow at :02 minutes and :32 minutes after the hour. lasts for about four minutes I think. you can set your watch by it. and then you can post VERY FAST after these periods.

Surely not.. The problem is a 'packeting' problem. The data gets sent to the servers and is broken up into packets (sections). The 'packets' then have to be put together and be sent out to all the individual devices. They are simply not reconnecting as they should be. Easy to sort out but I've no work-permit. In fact, just giving advice is dodgy here. Who will look after my cats, my daughter, my koi carp when I'm behind bars or having AA (attitude adjustment)?

Ks45672 Posted December 25, 2018 Share Posted December 25, 2018 I've never seen these type of problems on other high traffic forums I think they use vBulletin or similar but I'm not a web designer so I don't know if that would fix this.... Or maybe turn off all the ads for a day and see if the forum becomes more usable..... But i guess that suggestion would be unpopular with the owner ???? That pulldown advertising tab thing on the top centre is the most annoying by far imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doctormann Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 The quick navigation link is still missing. This was a useful facility - will we ever get it back I wonder?

asiaexpat Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 Totally unreliable, slow or not loading pages. This has been going on for quit a long time and Nations needs to fix this. ThaiVisa has become just a sales tool for Nations it would seem. Very disappointed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With all the digital nomads out there it is distinctly in the realm of possibility that someone with the time and drive is thinking (or acting on) the same thing. That's how competition works. If Thaivisa continues to allow its brand's reputation to slide, it risks its future. I'm a fan of this forum, but gotta wonder what the commitment level is to fix these issues, going into week 7 of trouble. If this forum were my investment, at this point I would be building the new site to replace this buggy one asap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
