Premier-only forum looks great.
I got on about 90 mins ago for a couple of minutes.
It was VERY, VERY green and had block quoting.
Also, forum profile pages were different all day and showed , anmongst other things, post counts.
I . Had. To. Do. Work. Today.
DAMMMMIITTT!!!
yeah looks like they loaded up the new forum and now reverted back to the old one. The new one had a tick box for 'email when replies' and the fonts were different.
Oooh! It's back!
Yup
And slower than at any time I can remember in recent history! 😯
What happened? Did i miss something...
Well that was a coincidence. Just did a refresh and it was back. Checked how long for and it seems about 10 seconds before I checked. 🙂
Love the new look BTW
and........breath
Just had my first virus ad redirect!
Ahhhhh....that's better.
Still couldn't embiggerise on the old ipad but could go to last page on the mobile site.
That's good.
Or we could go back to last year's site.
That was best.
So, what is it.....
Also, forum profile pages were different all day and showed , anmongst other things, post counts.
They’re still there.
42.5k posts flashy. Nice....

Ah, the old forum is back! Will Shaun be updating the image at the top with every new issue?
Post-Article 50 plot to increase productivity, innit.
Worked.
Just in time for my ban to expire.
Holy smokes. Waiting for it was like holding my breath underwater.
I have just burst to the surface.

now where was I?....... oh yeah corned beef and wedding photos.....
Oh thank God, the real world is a scary, scary place.
Thank god for that, I was beginning to think it'd gone forever, I've had to do work all day!!
I.Nearly.Talked.To.Actual.PEOPLE!
just sitting here gazing around in wonder - it's much better than I could have dreamed
now, where's the like button ?
Most productive day ever.
So, can we coincide future updates with days where I'm busy rather than days where I have NOTHING to do?
Hello
I nearly signed up to mumsnet in desperation to start a thread about what to do without my SF or whatever they would call it
waits for the first picture of Binners all day Gregg's binge 😆
I was lost without STW to kill work time, it was TERRIBLE!
that was officially the longest work day of 2017, horrible

I actually had to do some work*. They'll be hearing from my lawyers. I just hope no government bods were measuring any spikes in productivity 😯
* though I did have a cheese and onion pasty and a sausage roll for lunch 😀

Can finally stop rocking back and forth in the corner
I'm looking for the Bank of England announcing an unexpected upward movement in productivity in December before things returned to normal
Anyone else finding it extremely slow loading pages?
[url= http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/business-42280595 ]FTSE moves higher as STW is down for 6 hours[/url], coincidence?....makes you think eh?
CaptainFlashhart must've struck that paperclip deal with China
Anyone else finding it extremely slow loading pages?
Yep, and is disappoint it looks the same! I got all excited about and hour ago too!
It was slower than stink earlier but it's rapid for me now?
nah, you've just lowered your standards cougar
So what’s new?
More concerning is the loss of STW income for the day. Any estimates of that?
engine dead, air supply low, advice please..
nah, you've just lowered your standards cougar
That wouldn't seem possible.

Everyone frantically clicking refresh will more than cover any actual use of the site...
Don't worry they'll supplement it with some extra redirects to dodgy websites over the next few days.More concerning is the loss of STW income for the day. Any estimates of that?

seems slow here 🙂
Where has the new view of profile posts started and replied to gone? Also the reply to post button? Was I dreaming?
No you weren’t dreaming. There also appeared to be image hosting options!
No you saw the promised land, as did I, oh my it was good and then in a flash they take it away - sadists
I suspect they've all been Xmas shopping.
Yay!!!
Aaand the ad redirects happen immediately....
Facebook survey if anyone cares.
Oh and don't go on the homepage, sucks bandwidth like crazy!!!
jekkyl - Memberthe fonts were different.

Particularly cruel given your recent need to concentrate on household chores. If they had timed it right you would have all the motivation necessary!
Stuck in the hospital and they take my one form of entertainment / time wastage away 😥
I spend hours imagining what awaits when the forum returns and..........
It’s exactly the same.
The other massive disappointment is not seeing ten locked threads about this very topic only with bizarre title choices
Evening.
Sorry... something changed?
Engagements?
Is this a dating site now?
What's that about?
Phew. I can stop working.
New forum is soooo much better than the old one. Erm, maybe.
I like the grey.
Was it just a snow day for the mods?

If you had to have one guess at when the STW Christmas party was...
They had to shut it down whilst they partied or we’d have created too many duplicate threads and broken the swear filter
[s]On the mobile site, seems like there's now a link to the last page of the thread. Not always, though (5.5" screen here)[/s]
Edit, no ignore me. It's no different
It's verrrry slooooooow

Click, count to five... .
Played more riffs than usual today, my fingers are sore. Visited more alterantive sites than usual too, my d....
I checked Grit.cx out of desperation. Thought a temporary thread may have been running there to allay the boredom. No...nothing on there for a whole month.
Plot twist, the upgrade was a smokescreen, the forum is actually hosted at ukfast which has been down most of the day. 😉
In History you get to see what people have actually posted, not just which threads they have posted on.
New forum being delivered by myhermes.....
I just lost patience waiting for the EU thread to open. This upgrade is ace !
The problem isn't at my end. Would it be faster if I tried with my old 56k modem?

I've been so bored today I've had to do some work.
Just for a vague attempt at something helpful for the techies, the speed is woeful on laptop (I've done a speed test and all checks out fine).
Mobile fine from the same connection.
Extremely slow here too.
Particularly cruel given your recent need to concentrate on household chores. If they had timed it right you would have all the motivation necessary!
I know, they could have told me beforehand and i would have explained that the inspection would have to wait until tomorrow because STW is down. I could have done it all today.
House looks really good, inspection done, no problems at all. Now to try and sort this xmas thing i have been hearing about.
Apparently it's not that long away?
I thought I'd observed that bigger threads take longer to open. But that was before today too.
I am a big fan of the admin not posting anything at all about what's been done, new features, the stuff which was removed etc. It's like they've gifted us the gift of working out what, if anything has changed.
It truly is a Christmas miracle!
It's dog slow here too, which makes it harder to post illtempered poorly spelled rants that you instantly regret (but will defend to the death with more illtempered poorly spelled posts)
I [i]really[/i] like the maintenance screen though.
Nothing's changed Jamie, the maintenance was aborted.
