I guess they finally fixed the forums?

I just realized - I don't think I've gotten a "We cannot proceed" message when posting for several weeks now!

Hope I haven't jinxed myself.

I haven't gotten that, or any of the other half-dozen error messages in a while, either. Still, I wouldn't go so far as to say the boards are "fixed."


There are no words for what this community, and the friends I have made here mean to me. Please know that I care for all of you, yes, even you. If you Twitter, I'm MrThan. If you're Unleashed, I'm dumps. I'll try and get registered on the Titan Forums as well. Peace, and thanks for the best nine years anyone could ever ask for.

Call me skeptical about the "fixed" part

I'm still getting that pop-up complaint box asking to upload all content (I forget the
exact msg, but it's caused by all the external avatar links).

That just seems to happen here (at work - shhhh), so I'm not sure if there's something
I can do to fix that (it doesn't occur at home on FF)...

Also, and this has been true for several weeks now, part of the boards *are* broken.

If you look at the top of this posting page (before getting to the very top titles) there
are two live links... the leftmost one goes back to the main index, and the rightmost
one goes back to the topics in this section (Player Questions).

If you look at the AT sections (ie. Blaster), those links are broken inside a thread
(the left one is gone entirely, and the right one isn't clickable)

Hardly earth shattering, but I personally find that a navigational nuisance as I use them
all the time (in the sections where they work right).

Another issue I've come across is with emails from threads I've tagged as Favorite Topic!. At the top of those emails, it doesn't give a complete url to the new post when posted from Boards.CityOfHeroes.com. It works fine when the new post is posted from Boards.CityOfVillains.com, though.

You mean the "This page contains both secured and unsecured content. Do you want to enable unsecured content?" message? I just recently started getting that message, like within the last two weeks. And it comes and goes. Usually it will go away when I restart my computer, or sometimes when I just reopen the browser. Hasn't happened to me yet this week. Knock on wood.

Yep. That's the one.

I shut my work machine off every day without effect on this message - I still get it.
It does come and go periodically, but not due to anything I can pinpoint. Lately, it's
been appearing constantly each time I open up a post.

I'm not sure if it's an IE setting, or something in our site/proxy/netsense configuration
that's causing it, but I've yet to do anything on my end that makes it go away.

As mentioned, it doesn't happen at home on FFox.
