Re: Error message
Seems to be improving. TC mentioned it may be to do with bots. We seem to be getting botted a fair bit at the mo. They must have picked up on all the submarine builds and think we're spies or something.Kevthemodeller wrote: Fri Feb 27, 2026 1:08 pmSame here that's why I've got a double post above took 15mins to post then did it twice.

Its been tried and tested, it works! So don't blame the system if you're no good.

Re: Error message
If a post doesn't load the first time and it gets stuck tapping the back button will often recover it, then try again is all we can do.Kevthemodeller wrote: Fri Feb 27, 2026 1:08 pmSame here that's why I've got a double post above took 15mins to post then did it twice.

Re: Error message
I've been unable to get on all day, nothing but error page. I hope you can sort it out soon Matthew, the site is currently unusable for me!

Re: Error message
I am hoping that it has gotten better in the last hour or so. Trying to block the offending sites is like playing whack-a-mole. I block one and another comes right back up. I promise I am working on a better solution. I will let the forum know once I have a firm plan in place.Kevthemodeller wrote: Tue Mar 03, 2026 5:27 pm I've been unable to get on all day, nothing but error page.

Please keep being patient, a major change is coming as soon as I can make it happen!

Re: Error message
Beats me why someone is even bothering with our little site. I mean all that effort and there isn't a huge data base to rob.

Re: Error message
Sadly it's been the same all day today. Oddly it appears to get better in the later afternoon, but it still takes 5 or more attempts. I know you're doing all you can Matthew and that is greatly appreciated.bfrd wrote: Tue Mar 03, 2026 5:42 pm I am hoping that it has gotten better in the last hour or so.

Re: Error message
I am terribly absent but the one day, yesterday, I was going to post, the same error message appeared. Glad someone noticed as I was worried ISM had closed down in my absence.
