For the past several days, the columns "Replies" and "Views" in the message board are out of sync.  Showing lots of zero's.  For example, the JAGGED LITTLE PILL thread shows 8 replies, but "0" views.  Obviously, if you have 8 replies, you should have 8 views.  The problem seems to be mostly with some of the newer threads.

Thanks.

Yes, I first noticed it on the off-Topic Boards. I have also noticed that at times the board side of the page will narrow and the ads on the right expand. That may just be my device but it started happening a few weeks ago.

Just give the world Love.

I've noticed both of those things.  In addition, the page always jumps several times before it settles and if I forget to wait, I'll click on something I don't mean to click on.  Even this reply box jumped in the middle of my typing this.  This board software is annoying - not quite annoying enough to keep me away, but annoying nonetheless.

It's the ads that cause the page to jump around and take a while to "settle." And then they complain when we use an ad blocker to try to make it possible to get the site to function properly.

Did you know that every day Mexican gays cross our borders and unplug our brain-dead ladies?

The damn endless ads and pop-up videos on this site make it bounce all over the place. Very annoying to try and navigate these boards.

A Chorus Line revival played its final Broadway performance on August 17, 2008. The tour played its final performance on August 21, 2011. A new non-equity tour started in October 2012 played its final performance on March 23, 2013. Another non-equity tour launched on January 20, 2018. The tour ended its US run in Kansas City and then toured throughout Japan August & September 2018.

Exactly!!! I’d gladly pay a fee each month from the money I’ve saved by not going to live theatre the past 8 months if that means no ads and no pop up videos!

I should add that I'm tired of their little popup window suggesting either a one-time or monthly donation to get rid of ads. I made my one-time donation. Why is it back, as of this week? I paid my one-time donation. I expected one time, period.

Thanks.  I thought it might be the ads, but they've been around for a long time and the jumping/settling was taking longer recently.  

 

However, since this thread started, things seem much better.  So, thanks OP, for starting this thread.  Someone is reading it and I appreciate the improvement!!
