I don't know if this is just the way it is, but when I get a notification and click the arrow to view it, it takes a very long time for it to open. I usually refresh the page and it's faster.

I've had this issue as well, but haven't been able to find a way to fix it yet.

My apologies if this has been brought up before, but I get the Secure Key error very often.

When going to post, it says my Secure Key did not match, then I have to copy what I was posting, go back, refresh, and post again and then it works.

Doesn't seem a huge deal, but when your internet isn't the fastest, it's very annoying.

In fact, on several occasions, this error has discouraged me from posting what I was going to post.

I get this strange mySQL error that says something to the effect of: SQL Error. There is nothing wrong with the board but with your SQL server.

I'm guessing everybody is getting this since there are like 40 people on the board right now compared to a much higher number like haf an hour ago

I tried reporting a post and got this error message when I clicked the Report button:

This is correct.

The report button is only available for PM conversations.

This is hte kind of thing that if you already know whats going on let me know, if you have to do research though, don't bother, its not that important.


I recently have had reason to copy and paste spread sheets to these forums. I have been using Open Office spread sheets and copying it to the the forums using a rich text edtor. Randomly when I do this, it will not allow some of these posts and gives me the error message along the lines of "You must make post"

On top of this, after I paste and copy from this spread sheet, I don't seem to be able to change the font of numbers to red font.

Quoting or mentioning the name of [url="http://forums.cybernations.net/index.php?showuser=36700"]this user[/url] brings upon the wrath of the word filter.

Example:

I've seen this happen with a few other unfortunate members. IPB should support filter list exceptions, if memory serves, which would allow his name to display correctly.

The issue is that the Strong Word Filter is on. If the admins moved it to weak filtering, that wouldn't be an issue

I imagine it's on for a reason.

I'm seconding the complaints on this page--I've been logged out and given the security key bug around 15 times in the past 20 minutes that I've been trying to post. This has been happening for months and has greatly discouraged my posting.

In fact I just got the secure key bug and when I reloaded I was logged out. Cookies are on.

This is probably a problem on my end, but I don't really know.

Every day, the first time I try to post (using Fast Reply), I get the following message:
[img]http://s388.photobucket.com/albums/oo324/TheGhux/Picture1-1.png[/img]
I continue to get the same message every time until I refresh the page of the topic I am viewing.

This problem is annoying me too.
It usually works on the second try(after refreshing), but when I am not on my home PC, and am on the bus or something, its really quite frustrating.

I'm guessing it's just an IPB thing. Well, not [I]just[/I], a lot of sites are written insecurely, and people have written programs to exploit that as well. But since it's probably built deep into IPB, it's something they'd need to fix.
