Ping: Bug

[Chief Rum]

Hey, Bug, I haven't been able to get the BRO message boards to load up for a week now. Do you know what's going on? The rest of the site seems fine. I know they did some board maintenance there a few days back, and I know I haven't been able to get on since.

They work fine for me...?

I don't get it then. I go to the forums page, and the page itself loads up fine. But the forums and links and what not don't load up right away. Instead, a "loading" image appears in between the blue headline border at the top and the blue line lower than that below which the forums usually go. This loading image just circulates in a circle like a clock (kinda like getting the ole hourglass image from Microsoft). And that's all it does. I have left the forum page open for a while looking to get anything else or to see if anything "loads" up, but nothing yet.

Have you tried hitting the reload button?

Have you tried hitting the reload button?

Yup. Heck, I have a browser on there right now waiting for the "Loading" image to actually produce forum links. I have refreshed several times and monkeyed about the site some.

[MrBug708]

What browser are you using?

[Chief Rum]

What browser are you using?

IE7. The standard with XP Home, updated, of course. Same browser, too, that I have been able to view it in the past. Weird.

[MrBug708]

Wierd. I know I was having some issue about a month ago where if I hit the stop button and then the reload button, I would get it to pop up. I use mostly Firefox though and hardly use IE

Try deleting your cache / temporary internet files.

Try deleting your cache / temporary internet files.

No dice with deleting temporary internet files. Couldn't find the cache option, which is weird, because I know I have done it before. Don't quite get that.

Anyway, it's still giving me the Eternal Load.
