Jackofalltrades Posted October 25, 2012 #1 Share Posted October 25, 2012 (edited) Hi, I have been having a problem replying to a topic... I have refreshed my browser and even restarted my PC, and still have the same issue When I finish typing it and click post, it starts off trying to post then just hang's there with the word's "Saving post..." and not really doing anything else Is there any way to sort this ? Thank's in advance Edit : Obviously I can make a post here... lol Edited October 25, 2012 by Jackofalltrades Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jackofalltrades Posted October 25, 2012 Author #4 Share Posted October 25, 2012 Which browser are you using ? How often does this occur, any specific topic(s) ? IE 9 is browser Just started happening today The only one that it does it on is the "conspiracy theories" tried replying to no avail, I have posted a reply to one in the "shadow people" which worked... I have not tried replying to any more since then, except this one now Will it finally go ahead and post it. No, just hang's there for ages Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackofalltrades Posted October 25, 2012 Author #5 Share Posted October 25, 2012 Just a curiosity... could it be due to the length of the post ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saru Posted October 25, 2012 #6 Share Posted October 25, 2012 Possibly, especially if you have some mismatched tags or a lot of code in there. Sounds most likely to be something specific to the post you are trying to make if it only happened for that one post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will try and post it again, if that does not work I will try two post's see if that help's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+ouija ouija Posted October 25, 2012 #8 Share Posted October 25, 2012 Hi ........... again! Remember me? Ms why-can't-I-delete? I occasionally have this problem but can usually make it work by scrolling up to the top of the page and clicking on something else there ........ suddenly, original reply finds it can post itself! Or, I go to another page and discover when I come back that my reply has been posted after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackofalltrades Posted October 25, 2012 Author #9 Share Posted October 25, 2012 Hi ........... again! Remember me? Ms why-can't-I-delete? I occasionally have this problem but can usually make it work by scrolling up to the top of the page and clicking on something else there ........ suddenly, original reply finds it can post itself! Or, I go to another page and discover when I come back that my reply has been posted after all. Hi...Yes I remember You... How You doing ? I have tried that and everything else I can think of, restart the PC refresh browser etc, even tried splitting the post in two (it is quite large) and still to no avail.... It must be something that is in the actual reply that is corrupt, mismatched tag's or something, like what Saru said.... Going to re type my reply from scratch and see if that work's, if it does not work this time round then I give up LOL Just hope, every time I have tried to post my reply it does not post after a long delay like You have described happening to You in the past, as I dont think the admin or mods will like deleting them all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackofalltrades Posted October 25, 2012 Author #10 Share Posted October 25, 2012 Still having problems replying to just that one topic..... Tried for a few hour's and got nowhere..... even typed it out again from scratch Time to give up I think, on that topic... LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jackofalltrades Posted October 25, 2012 Author #12 Share Posted October 25, 2012 Hopefully it will.... It is getting a bit frustrating to say the least, also starting to play up on other reply's I try to post Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jackofalltrades Posted October 26, 2012 Author #14 Share Posted October 26, 2012 Have you tried it with a different browser ? No not yet.... that is one thing I have not tried I will do if or when I decide to reply to the topic and it still does it I have given up for now...

Jackofalltrades Posted October 26, 2012 Author #15 Share Posted October 26, 2012 It is still doing the exact same thing...... on the same topic that I am trying to reply to.... I have used a different browser.... I have retyped it from scratch... I have even just quoted once, and put my reply in once without quoting different part's of the post and splitting each section up... This is the very first time I have ever come across this, on this or any other forum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
