Broomsticks And Owls

Meh, am having problems...
I registered earlier today under the name Blaise Zabini, but the e-mail address I used had been de-activated. I realised a little while ago that this was the case and re-activated the account but the e-mail for activating my user-name on this board got lost somewhere in the process. And now Hotmail isn't working at all. Am having a not-too-good computer day...
Any help at all would be much appreciated. Thanks!

I've just manually activated your Broomsticks And Owls membership, so you should be able to sign in and post now.

Good to see you're safely back again, Beccaroo.

Do you have cookies enabled in your browser? If they are disabled it may be the cause of the problems. There's also a slightly annoying thing that the board does whereby it will check your IP address - with some Internet service providers, if they log you off after a certain period and you log on again you'll get a slightly different IP allocated to you. This makes the board think you're not signed on, so you need to sign on again. I get exactly this problem myself so I can understand what a pain it is.

I'm June... and having the same problem s everybody else, it seems. the system keeps logging me out no matter how many times I logged in or click the "log me in automatically" box... sigh...

At least now I know it's not just me... I'll try to be patient with the system...

Well log me in automatically box Never works for me, but once I log in and keep this window open - its ok.

I can't say for 100% definite yet, but I'm 99% sure that I've fixed the Log me in Automatically problem tonight.

Could be your connection or even your IP address causing conflicts. How often has this happened and how recently did it start and when did it last happen? Do you get anything at all or just a blank page? Does your browser indicate things likes "connecting to remote host", "request queued", "sending a request", "receiving data" and "completed request" (if not, try the Opera browser at http://www.opera.com which will show you these things ). If you can get this info from your browser (bottom right-ish area of the browser if you use Opera), could you tell me at which stage things stop if they seem to come to a halt.

If it does happen again, can you give me lists of membernames who were online at the same time as you (on the bottom of the front page) each time it happens. I know it sounds odd but I may have a theory.

Sorry for all the questions but they may help pin-down the problem.

The screen will be blank n the status is always at opening page (the level of uploading is around 3/4). If i press Stop button, the page will appear so i could log in, but i cannot gain access to posts. It started recently...maybe it is my PC problem...i tried using a laptop and it seems like i could use it at night as well...(Problem solved then....i will use my laptop at night)
Thanks Paul
