2 constant site annoyances

Or is it just me?

OK...first problem. I start of viewing a library or writing and post and everythings fine...then bam...the pages just shoot right off the screen to the right and I need another half of a screen to see anything. I think on some library pages it might be because some of the "small" previews are way to big...yes...no?

Just a few minutes ago as I was writing a post the page just shot off to the right.

The second problem. After writing or viewing a post and it seems to take anywhere from 3 to six clicks, in some cases more, on my back button to get back to the main page.

What is causing this?

First....an issue with an odd browser perhaps?

Second....clicking the wrong 'button'....the 'Forum' tab gets you back there...rather than flipping pages in reverse....

As far as the odd browser, most of the time I use my MSN Explorer browser, and this has "never" happened anywhere else except on WC. On the old site it would happen once in awhile, but on the new site it is constant. I'm going to try Firefox for awhile and see if it happens using that.

Never had a problem anywhere else clicking the wrong button, even on the old site, but ok...if that will solve that issue. I guess the new site is back button unfriendly then.

And also...another problem I forgot about until it just happened again. Every morning I get on here...around 5-6AM I either get numerous busy server issues or it takes forever for pages to load. Is traffic here that conjested around that time?

Er....whatever that time may be...don't forget I'm in Oz....it's currently 22.02 Thursday.

Current users 1252 logged in....so yes, pretty busy...

The site was like treacle yesterday. Much faster today. I expect the back-room boys are 'fiddling' with stuff again

Not sure what the time difference between Oz and the U.S. Jafo, but even on a broadband connection it gets really slow. Honestly, when the site first changed over things weren't that bad, but they just seem to be getting worse.

Now I'm starting to miss the old site again.

Haven't had any problems on my old slow dialup. I always punch the little house button thingy to get back to main forum page. Also ... try sneaking in late at night ... U.S. central time.

I confirm this happens to me from time to time also (using Firefox for about 8 weeks now). I only noticed it on since the 'new' site took over.

Is the moniter falling off of your desk, maybe? JK. No probs here with any of the above ...today. Just wish I was not an easy critic. Essencay? Hit it.
