experiencing the site disapearing and the screen going blank?? Or is it just me?

Moon

Yes, I am suffering from exactly the same. I thought it was my PC.

Yep me too.
So it's not just my black-hearted computer, then

yeh I'm getting it too....

Yep, I'm getting it also, thought it was the office LAN connection... obviously not!

I've been getting it now and again.

Yes, I'm having the same problem.

It seems to be happening more and more for me. I keep replying to posts and then losing what I have written.

Yeah I had that one too Lickszz

i think i can field this one, the host server we are on at the moment is a little ropey (possibly to do with the heat) so its not loading the forum scripts just the blank page at the back :(

ive not had any trouble yet at the moment mind :)

I don't know...people will blame anything on the weather!:lol:

it was 31'C in the shade in the city center when i was there 30mins ago :| tooo hoooot

I needed to go into town today, but there was no way I was going to even attempt it. I may be insane, but I'm not crazy:lol:

Time for offices to shut down. Time to go home and swelter in comfort.

PLEEEEaaase boss!

OMG..... a rival is on the loose [edited]!

Although, the competition is a little thin!

Nice work!

what is it tho?

Erm... ANOTHER Sheffield Forum

Why another one?
I don't understand...:o

Returning to the subject of site related problems, the website clock is 5 or 6 minutes faster than GMT

Testing Time

hmm, seems to be about 3mins out

Then your watch is two minutes fast, RPG ;)

:lol: i work on internet time ;)

I sometimes still get a blank white page when i come on this forum..To be honest it was the best thing i have read in ages 8)

I'm having it too, quite fustrating, having to go to home page everytime. expect geoff will get it sorted when he is back

It's happened to me about 3 million times this morning:o
Can't someone fix it?

simple fix.

ive noticed when you get a blank screen it'll reappear even if you go elsewhere...

close the browser and reload it.

umm, i dont think this is a geoff sortable thing to be honest :(

it seems to be server based, i still reckon its the heat even if the servers are in say america they are getting heat which is cracking windscreens!! :o :o

Well when Geoff gets back he can broach the hosting Co' and get the ball rolling.

So we are still dependant on our fearless leader upon his return!

Come home Geoff, all is forgiven!8)

seems to have cleared up this last hour or two

I'm not getting it at all if I use Opera instead of Internet Explorer

ack, its getting worse now :(

Up to 6 million now:o

Abby that was a great post made on the lamest forum I have ever seen on the world wide web!!!!!:lol:

This white screen thing is really starting to [censored by DaBouncer] me off!:evil:

I've been getting it too. I have to close the forum down and completely log in all the time. Most annoying! :help:

yeah, it keeps happenin 2 me!
sometimes i can just click back, and other times i have to disconnect and reconnect!!!!!:x

It seems to be happening on other boards as well.

No explanation though:?

Yeah, yeah, yeah......me too.:?

This is a server issue and nothing to do with vBulletin.
I have also experienced these blank page issues on SF. The hosting company should be informed of these problems, though it's likely they've already been flooded with support tickets about it.

RPG is likely to be correct, or it could just be a simple configuration problem somewhere along the lines.

How bloody annoying its getting so its actually rarer for the page to show than it to be bloody blank.

Who needs to come to Florida for a holiday? I think I'll just come back to Sheffield for great weather. Problem is, when are you guys going to learn about air conditioning? It's a wonderful invention!!!! Phew. My parents are miserable this week. Ahhhhh.

Following the subject of this forum: glad you're back up and running. I have been without the forum for 2 days and was getting withdrawal symptoms. I thought it was me.
This morning logged on and here I am again.
Hello every body, I've missed you :)

Anyway talk soon, I have to go and click the air conditioning up a touch. It's getting cold in here!!!!!!
