That's even worse than before - all line breaks in the whole code block are gone, and the entire thing is showing up as one really long line.

Usually, threads won't load because the image resizer is trying to preload sig images. If one or maybe two sig servers are offline, the resizer will time out soon enough for the rest of the page to load. Three or more missing sigs and the thread times out.

You can prove this by going into your user cp -> edit options -> Thread Display Options -> Show Signatures checkbox.
Turn them off, then load all the stuck threads. You'll find they load fine.

Supposedly, we went back to the old image resizer. But the old resizer was client-side script that resized images after they load in your browser window. You'd see images load at full size, then resize after they're loaded. The current behavior is server-side, you can see oversized images load already resized. Which means the server loaded them first. And was too dumb to skip sig images.

My conclusion is that we're still on the new resizer, or some close variation. Instead of giving us back the old resizer, they tweaked the GUI behavior of the new one. Same basic code, different face. And stuck threads whenever a sig server or two is offline. Possibly if a hosted image server is down as well.

For myself, I'm browsing with sigs turned off because I have to be able to load all threads. It sux. I've been tempted to post multiple images in this thread with bad source servers - make this thread a stuck thread deliberately so that the problem will be addressed. I'd rather have the thread reflow itself as images resize than have threads not load at all.

Thank you. The way you explain it makes sense (though does not explain why such problems exist in today’s software). Turning signatures off indeed helped. Just that a notification somewhere would have been helpful.

Now I'm thinking of a reason to turn signatures back on and can’t find any.

Seconded.

After much intense calculation, it has been decided that your thread is already in the forum that you wish to move it to.

Deep Thought should be jealous.

The /new-post/ suffix for the URLs in the subscribed threads list is still broken.

Images aren't showing up for me, neither are sigs.

Exactly.

I just snapped a screen shot of this also!

I accidentally started a thread for this.

Code:
int main(int argc, const char **argv)
{
	printf("Indents still don't work in code tags!\n");
	printf("fix it please!\n");

        return 0;
}

Something I've noticed, when not logged in and in the search tool, after a search has been made and it's taken you back to the search screen because you're not logged in, the log in drop down doesn't seem to work. FF 2, latest updates, Ubuntu 7.04,

A full month later and it's still not fixed.

And the user profiles have remained incomplete ever since the redesign.

Here is a forum bug I screenshot. I didn't want to keep it that way cause of the annoying thing it does to threads.



Someone could really be obnoxious and make page loading a PITA.

You can make you "location" as long as you want and it just extends so that the page loads as if ONE HUGE image was posted.

i've gotten this a couple of times tonight:


Warning: connect(): Can't connect to gg.macnn.com:11211, Unknown error (0) in /includes/class_datastore.php on line 307

Fatal error: Unable to connect to memcache server in /includes/class_datastore.php on line 309

Not sure if this is a forum problem or a Safari (iPhone version) problem.

Long thread names don't seem to be wrapping properly.

I can't post a screenshot (or more accurately, don't know how to take a screenshot on an iPhone), but if you click on either of these threads from an iPhone, I imagine it will render the same way.

Shorter names seem to work fine.

I've had sigs turned off since you said this, and in the past week or two, most pages in the forums refuse to load completely (continuing currently). If I notice and stop the page from loading manually, everything shows up just fine. Very irritating.

when I try sending PMs to a mod or two, safari keeps crashing

[Oisín]

That’s not a bug, it’s a feature, implemented to prevent you (yes, you specifically!) from getting in touch with the mods.

They don’t like you.
