Wacko Board
 

Although I emailed Fodor's regarding the problems with their Board it is worse than ever.

For example I posted on Tiff's Happy Birthday thread that OWJ started. I posted last night at 9:38pm.

Today I looked at the thread and my post is not there!! But it was there last night, I double checked due to all the posting problems.

Soooo, I clicked on the Post My Reply to try again to wish dear Tiff a late Happy Birthday wish. When I clicked on the Post My Reply all the posts for Tiff's thread were on the right side of my screen. And there was my post from last night!!

But when you click on the thread from the left hand side of the screen my post of last night does not show up.

How crazy is that? And dearest Tiff, I got home late yesterday but I so do hope you had a wonderful birthday!!!

Maybe because you aren't posting anything that has anything to do with travel? ((a))

Happy Birthday, Tiff. ((b))

Budman, if they figured out a way to tell if the post is travel-related or not before it gets posted, I want to invest in that technology. It could fund my retirement travels!

Hi there, Budman, lol!! Thanks for the chuckle. Take care!

And ditto for me emd! I would be first class travel all the way.

BTW, I just emailed Fodor's again and I asked them to advise what they are doing to solve all the glitches their boards have been having for way to long.

Naw, this happened to me once too- I think it's just a glitch, since mine was related to travel. The gremlins must think some posts are crunchy!

Let me tell you guys, this glitch is non-descriminatory, whether I'm trying to post travel or non-travel related (3rd attempt on this one!)

Shew! For a minute I though someone was calling me names.

GoTravel, what? LOL. You are funny :-D
But the tech problems on these boards are not! Take care.

Looks like the board is fixed. No longer do I have problem to post. Is this a good or a bad thing :)

It's ok, Faina, just wait about 30 min. and try again.

It was annoying this am, Love, I tried to post something then had no time to re-post..and it was about travel LOL

I thought <i>Wacko Board</i> might mean there is a new board for all the Wackos to go post on :D

LoveItaly, I can beat that one . . . I have been on Fodor's on and off all day. It's 6:48 CST, and this whole thread, Wacko Board, just showed up on my computer. I was quite surprised to see the time you started it and realize that it had been on Fodor's all afternoon. Now does that take the cake, or what?!?!

I thought Wacko Board was referring to Portland/OR Coast threads:D Made me wonder since they have been very tame for a while, lol!

Well most people think we on the left coast are wacko...lol.

I was bit &quot;stressed&quot; when I typed the title :-L as I am so tired of the Fodor's Boards not working properly. I have requested a response from Fodor's regarding this but I am being ignored evidently :(( which I don't understand because in the past when I have sent an email I have received an ackowledgment that they are aware of the problem and that they are working on it etc.

I wish everyone who is having problems with the Boards would send an email to: [email protected].

Maybe if enough of us complain &quot;someone&quot; will pay attention, ya think?

I think talking about it on here might be more successful because everyone else who is coming to fodors for the first time will also see the post, and fodors (if they are smart little marketers) won't want the new people to think the board has these kinds of problems. Just a guess...(don't shoot me, editors)

Where's Kal when you need him? He could work wonders with the title of this post.

Hi there bill! Yes Kal would have fun with my stupid title, lol. How have you been? Bill, I guess I was feeling a little &quot;wacko&quot; due to all the posting problems on Fodor's, lol.

is it just me or are we getting flooded with a lot more advertisements lately? they may have always been there, but for some reason this week I seem to be noticing them more. for example, as I type this post, there is a flashing (very distracting) box below the text box that keeps changing text.

Lovey,

I'm great! I love &quot;wacko&quot;! You're gonna have mail and it won't be spam!

-Bill

I-) I-) I-) I-) Huh...whaaaaa?

Ohhh...I ignored it because I thought it was about wacky <i>broads</i>.

I have enuff in my life aleady.

Now, if you will excuse me.... I-) I-)

Kal! Wake up!! <i>(stomping dainty little foot)</i>
Wackos come in all sizes and colors and I am happy to know quite a few. Why, Kal is my friend, so you know I am telling the trut!
So, the Thursday night Wacko meeting is adjourned, bring on Friday..all sorts of good things comin~
((F)) Scarlett, <i>friend of Sistah Lou who told me about her Hawaiian vacation from hell and now I find I am talking just like her LOL</i>

I am waiting for that &quot;nonspam&quot; message Bill!!

Wacko Broads, Kal? I thought if one lived on the left coast they had to be one, lol! Hotter than heck, isn't it?

UHM Kal, I meant the weather not the broads! ;;) But than again....

Okay, our previous problems seem to be gone today. And I'm thankful for that, don't get me wrong! But is anyone else having problems pulling up threads? Sometimes it won't open at all, other times the title comes up but none of the posts.

Hi CAPH, I haven't been on Fodor's much today but when I have it has been working quite well. Maybe the gltiches are fixed. Have a great weekend!

Maybe it's my computer, LoveItaly!

I was glad to see your good news on FF R&amp;R. I'm sure it's a relief to have that behind you.

Hope you have a great weekend too!

Thanks CAPH, good grief it seems like so many of us have had stress, worries etc. of one kind or another. Maybe out little angels can give all of us a month of serenity.

CAPH, have you gone to TOOLS at the left upper side of your screen, click that on and then scroll down and click on Internet Options. Then scroll down to Temporary Internet Files and then click on Delete Cookies and after that is completed click on Delete files. These are all &quot;temporary files&quot;.

Doing this about once every two weeks can &quot;clean up&quot; your computer. If you haven't down this it would probably be a good idea to do so.

Note: Clicking Delete Cookies will mean you will have to log back onto Fodor's and other websites you are registered with, or at least that has been my experience.

Thank you, LoveItaly! I knew I probably needed to do that on this computer but couldn't remember how! Besides my frequent trips to Fodor's this is the computer my 16 year old son uses. Need I say more?!

CAPH, of course I meant if you haven't done this..as I have often said..I am the worse typist.

I think the wacko problem is on &quot;both coasts&quot;. No problems here. LOL

But I'm not on a coast, jorr. I'm in the suburbs of Chicago! Not even on the &quot;coast&quot; of Lake Michigan!

Hot weather or Hot Broads are my specialties.:-D
Esp since Mrs K has lost 25+lbs.

I hope she doesn't want to lose 255 lbs of ugly fat! :-&quot;
