Every now and then (every other day) it takes me a while to access the forum and i often get this message



Also the most annoying thing is i write a post and insert pics / img links, preview post and all looks good, once i post it only posts a tiny part of the post and 1 or no pics, no matter how many times i try

I copy and paste same post on 2 other forums without issue  :sad1:

Example - preview

Been having trouble accessing site also on iPhone. No problem on others. It's fine today.

I've also had issues using iPhone 6 where page just stays blank (white) with a bar loading at the top. This is using the google app

My guess is it's an iPhone/safari issues. I use this forum on iPhone 5 with no bother. Not that that's any help to you guys!

May be a compression issue. I've tried turning it off. Don't see why i have to recode sh*t every time apple make a new browser surely backward compatibility should be number one priority.  :fighting:

Apple don't do backward compat. It would effect their profits
