data base errors

Not sure if anyone else is running into this, but over the last 3 or 4 days have been running into a lot of data base errors while veiwing the forums. I have tried cleaning the cach and cookies out, but still am receiving them. Normally I have to close down IE or Foxfire and restart it, and then it will work again for a while.

Same thing here. I thought it might be me & my Firefox. Thanks for the heads up.

Interestingly, it happened to me also on cointalk so I went to another forum and the same bug was there also ( using firefox), so it seems in my case, the cause is something that retains with the browser until restarted or something. In my case, on cointalk , all showed except the title listing in "new posts", and when I went to the other site, same thing, no titles. Restart cured both. Odd.

Same thing is happening to me. I've also noticed that from time to time the ads don't load properly in the header either.

Same problem here but if I wait 2 or 3 minutes and try again it's fine.

Yes, same issue here (using firefox). Notice the problem off and on for a while now.

Also noticing that the banner ads are tending not to load, display some sort of warning/error message.

CoinTalk has been VERY slow to load in browser when linking from subscription emails or clicking around in links within the forums.

The slowness has been frustrating as it takes a lot longer to read through thread...

It's done that to me a couple of times now!!!! Very very frustrating to lose an entire post

Now I have to copy everything I'm about to post just in case it doesn't go through

Even using my "superfast" computer at work, those email links take for ever to load.. and sometimes won't load at all.

Database Errors and Unable to Connect

These are the two most dominant recurring problems while logged on CT: Database Errors and Unable to Connect.

I use Firefox and Safari, have NO problems with other web sites, email, IM functions and staying connected.

In addition, I find that I am constantly needing to re-log in to CT after I've been on (logged on) for a short time, having followed a subscription link from my email to CT and attempting to log in. I must have logged in nearly 15 times today.

It's really frustrating trying to participate with these issues. I hope there's some sort of fix for the forum or a preference setting someone can suggest. I have cleared cache, checked cookies and done the usual diagnostics.

Ditto. I answer the phone & come back to find I'm dumped 3 minutes later.
