I hate that. It's apparently a connection thing. But refreshing over and over gets annoying.

It has nothing to do with browsers.  It has to do with the bandwidth crapping out, so all you're getting is chunks of the HTML and it tries to build a bare-bones website with a minimum of data.  I get it occasionally when the weather is bad, and you see it all the time on high-traffic high-content sites with crappy servers (e.g. 4chan).

Aqizzar knows his networking!

Yes, it is how he put it. Browser using what data packages it gets to make do.

My connection is pretty solid, being like, over the road from the exchange box. Clearing the cache fixes it for a while, but does get really tiring to do every couple of days.

I'm over the road from my BT exchange as well but I get it occasionaly. You also have to factor in having a different internet to telephone provider and how many other people are between you and the server.

I am now sad becouse I don't know why the happy thread was locked.

[Keita]

WAIT WHAT!

*ears flattern to side of head*

Sadness...

[Akigagak]

Because post count +1 became all it was used for in the last hour or so?

EDIT: Ah. Noooo, Dasleah! Ah well.

[KaguroDraven]

Now the reason makes me even more sad! I had just been about to point out his post ammused me more than it angered me when I saw it was locked.

[Footkerchief]

Toady often locks threads while he deletes posts and/or ponders the thread's fate.

[Keita]

I am now sad at the fact I couldn't restrain my self from adding to that maddness...

[The Merchant Of Menace]

Huh, I guess I missed that one.

Rather disappointing that it was just briefly locked and not deleted altogether. I'd much rather have a fresh start with a new thread that wasn't dedicated to roleplaying domestic animals.

Hey we can dream.

Sad now for feeling like an idiot.

Just noticed that my post was one of the deleted ones... oops...
