It used to be that it took three tries to post, now I can't even open the threads. I have mentioned this before, but it is only getting worse.
I am being forced to withdraw from WrongPlanet because I simply can't post. I get caught in a login circle.
I could really use support on some issues right now, but I can't use this site.

I'm using an Asus MemoPad, if that makes a difference.

I agree; this happens to me.

I'm frustrated by one more thing:

I can't send a Personal Message of more than 10 lines or so. I get a "captcha" message, type in the correct numbers, and I'm still refused.

It's practically unworkable. If you can't post, what's the point of coming here.

I'm logging on in Google Chrome and the site is lagging and logs me out constantly, but I can still post.

Same for me. I use Chrome browser. This is the worst this glitch has been up to now.

What seems to help a bit is clicking on the "view forum" rather than "view topic" option when you get a notification email advising of a topic update. Of course you still have to scroll the forum to find the thread, though it is much faster than the repetitive log-in loop. It doesn't always work though :(

And why does logging-in have to bring up the profile page every time? Can't this step be made optional? It just wastes so much time and these annoyances are apparently not temporary glitches because they have been happening for ages.

Are they too hard or too expensive or too something to fix?

For the love of Christ!

It just took me 4 tries to get to the reply screen and 3 tries to post in a forum.
It's like pulling a slot machine waiting to get lucky.

Same for me; it's just about beaten me into leaving now.

It's so frustrating.
