Sorry but I'm losing patience. I can't seem to post on any thread. I've tried both AOL and Firefox servers. I can't even log in on AOL (9.0VR) The only thing I seem able to do is post a new thread which is what I'm doing.

I can post, but the pages are still loading painfully slowly, to the point that my browser times out, especially when I click on my screen name to see the threads I've posted to. I'm using Safari, btw--things are better than they were a day or two ago, but still not great.

I'm having the same problems and was going to the Lounge and here I am. Others are complaining about the same thing.

Do these IT people, or what ever they are called, make a lot of money? If they do, they are WAY over paid.

I clicked on US and got the lounge and that was after going to every forum on here, trying to open it and getting nothing.

I've noticed a problem the last two days as well.

mclaurie- I apologize for the hassle. Just to clarify-- when you go to reply on a thread, what happens?

I just posted a Yellowstone trip report so others could read and help them, and Its only in the US forum and when i do a search for Yellowstone it doesnt come up. what did I do wrong?

"what did I do wrong?"

Nothing really. Here is your thread http://www.fodors.com/forums/threads...1&tid=35149778

The search function doesn't work very well. It is one of the things Fodors is "working on".

Since you didn't click on Wyoming before posting your report, it won't show up if folks click on Wyoming. But it is there where it would be in any case - on the only forum -- "United States".

It would have been better to click Wyoming - but unfortunately you can't go back after the fact. But the trip report is there and some will find it.

(I'm not Katie but hope that explains things a bit)

PT, the answer is in your question "I just posted".

The search does not work immediately. Wait till the next day, if the search won't pull it up then, it's a problem.

I'm having no problem posting, but once again (as it's been most of the time for about the last month), it is painfully slow to reload. When I click on my own name to see my posts, or switch from Europe to US, I get only the heading for a long, long time until the actual posts come up on the left. Sometimes they never no, I have to click again and then maybe again before I get anything. After I post a reply, I'm facing a blank screen (except for the Fodors heading) for ages and ages.

I've been able to post but for weeks now have had problems with the various forum loading property and in a timely fashion.

So that's why very few people are posting on my men's Olympic thread ;-). The site is bit touchy lately.

Relieved to find out that "the problem is not in my set".

My experience has been precisely the same as NeoPatrick's.

It might be nice for Fodors to put a "sticky" thread at the top of each forum in which site troubles and the status of repairs (if any) could be covered.

It's been seriously buggy for days, and just when you think it's fixed, it goes fubar again.

LoveItaly

I have had the same problem that Patrick described for days..about a week? Well it started at the same time the Tagging was added. But Katie said that their tech people are working on upgrading the website and hope to have the upgrade completed by fall and the thought was that is what is causing the problems. So guess from the sounds of it this will be a constant problem these next months. Very frustrating and consequently I am not on Fodor's as much as usual. Of course that is a good thing!

CAPH52

I couldn't get to any of the forums on Fodor's for a couple of hours earlier this evening. And it showed me as unregistered so I'd go to the registration page only to go back and show as unregistered again. Very frustrating!

But probably just as well as I had other things I needed to be doing anyway!

I too have been having several problems with Fodors. Like others, really, really slow to load, to the point where you just give up. Also I fell off the log in/register thing and had to start again. Also clicking on Europe and getting lounge or vice versa.

The forums are taking ages to load as well. All in all, very frustrating.
