Connectivity Problems with AM Forum & Web Sites?

[3dgamer]

Is anyone experiencing connection problems with the Adventure Maker Forum and Web sites? I have been experiencing some connectivity problems over the last few days.

Just checking.

Sometimes the server is downtiming...

Hey Mercedes, hey Lyberodoggy,

Thanks for the reply. The problem I am finding the most s with PM but sometimes with the forums as well. For instance, I had tried to send several PMs yesterday and when I hit "Submit" it banged me out to the login screen. This happened several times, no matter how short the message was. And I just noticed that a PM I sent to Mercedes does not exist in my Sentbox ;( [Btw Mercedes, I just sent you another message.]

I understand what you are saying, Lyberodoggy, about the down timing because I have seen that before. That I kinda recognize...it's when I am logged in and then get logged out as soon as I hit the submit button, that bothers me the most, because it happens several times when I am at my computer for a span of time. I would think that the down timing would occur during a certain period of time and then eventually stop. Yesterday it was almost continual. I also do the delete cookies thing as well, and refresh the page, etc. but no go. <sigh>

I'm using good ol' Netscape 9.0. Yeah it's old, but it does work...at least on other sites. (IIRC, I also have tried IE and have problems before with connectivity as well.)

You should have gotten the earlier one many hours ago....but I pretty much replicated the same message in the one I sent to you, so no real content was lost.

Indeed, we had some short down times lately, but that should not have the effect that you have described (automatic log-out). From what you describe, I rather suspect that it's an issue with cookies. Did you enable cookies for the AM forums?

Hey, I just wanted to add that for me FF works best..Not crazy about I.E. As Mystery said, with FF I'm able to add AM as an acceptable site to my list---for cookies. It helps..

Hi Mercedes, Hi Mystery,

Indeed, we had some short down times lately, but that should not have the effect that you have described (automatic log-out). From what you describe, I rather suspect that it's an issue with cookies. Did you enable cookies for the AM forums?

Yep, cookies are fully enabled and have AM added as an acceptable site. I have to say, yesterday was the worse session I had in a while because I was constantly getting auto-logged out. At other times, it was like a temporary down-time thing, like Lyberodoggy state earlier. But yesterday was something else. (

Yeah, I have FF. I should probably give it a whirl..I might have better results. Yeah, I don't like IE either. It's too "hack-happy" IYAM...when you see updates coming out almost every other week, you know something's up. .

Google Chrome also cooperates with our forums pretty well- and, I might add, a bit faster than Firefox or IE.

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind, Zenoc2.
