Default Forum Software gripe. GRRRRRRRR

What really gets on my nerves at the moment, sorry about this, is when there is a notice posted at the top of the page. The page loads fast, then there is a small delay for this notice to load. If you are browsing fast, you click on the thread you want to see, but between this time and the time is actions the click, the notice has appeared, thereby moving the whole page down, resulting in you clicking on a thread you didn't want.

This also happens when your PM box is almost full and you get that warning. Hence I spent a good while last week clearng the PM box, now its happening again with the downtime notice!!

That is all.

slow down, take a breath and give it the 1 second it needs to load properly before clicking.

Perhaps none of them know the answers? Edit: I answered your topic for you.

What pisses me off, is the notice looks as though it was written by a 4 year old on acid, who rushed it just as Fireman Sam was about to come on.
