For me, logging off, clearing browsing history and then logging back on can work sometimes - the issue appears to resolve itself at other times.

That's a phenomenon on vBulletin boards, that occurs when a thread contains deleted posts, the page count still includes those posts, but the posts themselves aren't visible any longer, so the page jumps back to the last one with visible posts when someone clicks such an "empty" page.

I have tried to fix this using the settings. Could someone who is not a moderator do me the favor of visiting my profile page and posting to let met know that they have done so? Thank you in advance.

You've got lots of visitors :) - including me.

Hello: Why the amount of private messages is limitted to 15 PM's in any 24 hours periode on TRF?

**iceflower** · #**745** 07-24-2021, 11:46 PM

I have not noticed this before, but it could be a measure to avoid a large number of spam messages. Spammers do not only use the open forums but also the private message system to spread their advertising content.

Every time I try to look at the thread Charles Spencer, 9th Earl Spencer and Family I am always being taken to Page 64. I have tried numerous times. I am always taken to Page 64.
Please explain.

RJC · #**747** 08-02-2021, 03:02 AM

I am having the same problem and would like to know why.

SLV · #**748** 08-02-2021, 04:02 AM

Same here, I am on the mobile app.

Muhler · #**749** 08-02-2021, 04:26 AM

No problems for me.

I have however encountered the problem several times before. I've noticed that it tends to happen when moderators are doing an ongoing moderation. Moving posts and so on.
Could that be it?

AC21091968 · #**750** 08-02-2021, 06:55 AM

I'm having the same problem as well.

Muhler, I think you are right that this (unable to read/turn/flick past a certain later page) tends to happen when moderators are moving/deleting posts without actually closing the thread itself. It has happened quite often in the Sussex thread before and I actually have to type in a new post just to see the whole thread with the latest/newest posts.

**iceflower** · #**751** 08-02-2021, 07:16 AM

It doesn't have anything to do with moderator actions, the above mentioned Spencer thread for example hasn't been dealt with for more than a week now, so that can't be the reason. There's no blocking effect when posts are deleted or moved.

The problem reappears on a regular basis since some time, see also the previous page of this thread. For some it helps to close the page, clear the browsing history, log off and on again, for some unfortunately that trick doesn't help either. It's a kind of system glitch.

I am unable to view the topic "Ingrid Alexandra, Sverre Magnus and Marius: discussion".
I can't see new posts for this topic.

JoanHarry · #**753** 08-18-2021, 01:32 PM

It appears that the Sussex board was shut down in 15 minutes over one comment. Why did the Admin shut the board down, rather than putting the poster in a Time Out, as is mentioned in the sticky post? Why do we all have to pay for the actions of few?

**Marengo** · #**754** 08-18-2021, 06:05 PM

We have suspended the poster in question. Nearly all replies to the original post were political and thus deleted as is stated in our terms of service. Since posters clearly were not interested in discussing the topic itself we decided to close the thread.

We have tried to host the Sussex discussion for 4 years. Hopefully we will do it again at one point in the future - if the temperature of the discussion will ever cool down. However after 4 years of daily clean-ups, that often take hours to do, we simply do not have the time to continue to moderate an discussion of this nature. Especially considering we are a group of volunteers and not paid full time employees. As a reward for our work we receive abuse, accusations and all sorts of nastiness in return.

Few people have shown any sense of self reflection. Instead it is always the person they disagree with who is at fault. This infantile behavior has sadly become common practice though there have been some exceptions, which is why it was a hard decision to make.

For now we want to give this new method a try but the quick escalation showed that perhaps it is best to close the discussion all together - as other online forums have done. It is a pity but that is sadly the way things are standing. The last four years have been too draining - and quite frankly too insane - to continue the way we did.

Muhler · #**755** 08-22-2021, 11:35 AM

can't blame you for shutting down that thread!
A pity though.

However, does that include hard information, provided by members and posted by the mods? With or without the possibility for discussing such new information.

That is: I find a piece of hard facts, PM that to a moderator, who check and decide whether that should be posted or not.
Pretty much akin to adding a link to a closed thread.

Will that still be possible?

Somebody · #**756** 08-22-2021, 11:49 AM

I am having lots of trouble getting on to TRF; especially on my tablet. The verification process takes ages using lots of different Ray-IDs it seems (that's assuming I end up on TRF at all - which doesn't always happen).

Yes, that is possible and it is indeed the favoured and already applied solution.

Good day to all - I am once again unable to access TRF via the Apps on my Apple devices. Switching the devices off/on and deleting /reinstalling the Apps don’t help.

This has happened before and took many weeks before it was sorted out. Please, tech team, fix this.

I had same problem.
My solution is switching to Opera and all's fine.

I'm sorry you're having trouble. If uninstalling the app, restarting your device and then reloading the app doesn't work, please consider using a regular browser on your device to access the forum. The site has a mobile interface - no app needed.

If this doesn't work for you please post details of the errors you see so we can investigate further.
