NoshowJones Posted July 6, 2016 Share Posted July 6, 2016 Right now I am having so many problems with Thaivisa' I am having a debate right now and just cannot continue, my posts have come up in a different format, and it is not the first time. Everytime I try to answer in this debate, words and sentences go haywire, and even disappear. I have to keep on signing myself in. I am really fed up with Thaivisa right now, and a few days ago, I wrote a long post then it disappeared before my very eyes. I wonder if it is anything to do with the software.

NoshowJones Posted July 7, 2016 Author Share Posted July 7, 2016 (edited) I wonder if it is anything to do with the software. What are you using? - PC, Phone/App, etc? My XP PC is working well with Firefox... I am using a PC. Windows 8.1, hardly ever use Firefox because even though I tick the box to stay signed in, I have to sign in every time without fail. Almost like Thaivisa, when I have to keep signing in about 90% of the times. I have now decided that when I reply to a post, if it changes the format again, I will not reply, instead I will apologise to the poster, and just refuse to answer and explain why. I will just not tolerate words and sentences moving or disappearing in front of my eyes. If it stays on the normal format, and not changing to the smaller letters with bigger spaces in between, that will be fine. I have been on Thaivisa for at least five years with very little problems until recently. Someone must be to blame here probably a technician, as what I have mentioned does not happen anywhere else.

Tech Doctor Posted July 7, 2016 Share Posted July 7, 2016 Hi Possum1931, We understand the frustration, believe me it is shared by us administrators that we are hitting problem after problem. We are planning to upgrade the forum to the latest version which has been stable for over 2 months now for the French and Russian forums. We will provide more information soon. In the meantime please keep posting about errors its the only way we find out about them. TD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lannig Posted July 7, 2016 Share Posted July 7, 2016 I'm a kind of guy who complains easily and loudly about issues on forums I participate into but at this time I have really no problem at all with TVF... weird.

MJCM Posted July 7, 2016 Share Posted July 7, 2016 (edited) Firefox deleting cookies automatically? OP you should check if you didn't activated private browsing mode or that under options cookies are deleted some where under browsing history. Or are you by any chance running ccleaner and you didn't WHITELIST the TV cookies ? If all of that fails, create a new profile (start firefox with -P switch) and try again I have logged in to Thaivisa on my Pc about 2-3 months ago and I never had to login once again.

So do us a favour and get back to hiding behind your keyboard. ooh, it's me against all of you on the forum, because you speak for everybody, right? there is strictly no useful information in your posts other than "it doesn't work". and we don't even know if that is accurate, because the correct version of the above might be "it doesn't work as I expect/understand" because you might be using some aggressive antivirus, firewall, adblocker, browser toolbar or might be surfing in anonymous mode, do not track, private session, or your browser was hijacked by malware or on the contrary you might have set the security on "very high", which would block most cookies and much javascript... the first thing you should try is using a different browser. try firefox and chrome and tell us if the internet thingy is working as you expect if you use one of these using default settings. thanks.

I was advised to check my malware by a poster friend of mine through a PM. I found my malware protection had run out, so I reinstalled it. I am also going to try out a different browser. Also Chrome is the browser I always use at present. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMA_FARANG Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 I used to use the emo characters but I have noticed since I went to Windows 10 I am occasionally having formatting problems using them, especially at the beginning of a line. So basically, I have given up with them Although that appeared to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geriatrickid Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 I still see the shockwave crashing and needing to be reloaded issue. I believe that this error is occurring for others, but they do not have the software that identifies the error, so are oblivious and believe it is something else. I can't believe some people are still using XP. Support ended in April 2014 and continued use of the software is unsafe. No security fixes are being released. That puts one at risk for viruses, malware etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
