help please

new guy here. how do i operate this thing. (help [please {please help}])

Relax... we're old school... you'll get it.

1st... if you're new, don't try posting a bunch of links. "Our" system thinks that is a bunch of spam.

If you have a specific question... how to post a picture... how to quote someone... etc... ask.

I've been around longer than most of the moderators, so just ask the question and I'll help... others will also... as will the moderators...

Well, certainly SOMETHING has altered/gone wrong on this Forum. A few days ago the whole appearance changed. Graphics disappeared (a little square blob replacing them) and the options beneath posts of others now :- 1 1 0 0 Ou quote symbol Re What on earth THAT means I have no idea!

More difficult now to find new posts and to navigate the Forum.

If others have not experienced this alteration in appearance then it must just be my Kindle!

(Oh, and the smilies seem to have gone....)

??????????

Yes, the site has gone wonky on me now.
It was fine the other day when Banana mentioned it.
But it has apparently spread

Q

never mind i got it. i wasn't on the internet enough to know "old school" style, but it always fascinated me :P
what frustrates me is that reCAPTCHA has stopped working on chrome and firefox so i have to use safari.

Must be a virus........perhaps a complete lockdown will fix it......or maybe I'll pour disinfectant over my kindle....(I have a really strong kindle, a good kindle......)

It’s weird not everything is loading every time.
Sometimes I’m missing the post button. Like I can type in the box and not be able to hit post.

I finally just figured a work around.

And now it all works

It all looks good to me too now - but I'm now back on my home machine.
It was my work machine that it looked horked up on. (yeah, busted)

I'll check again when I go to work.

... you know , it's all the way over on the other side of the room at the desk

Lube

Preferably K-Y

Lol. Yes!

Though my work machines have more ad blockers and s***, so sometimes that f***s with loading Tfs.

But it was my phone that was having trouble loading thing earlier today.

Yes, seems OK now. Thanks.
