I agree that you should have created a new thread @andersj. There is no restriction on creating threads. In fact we encourage people to create threads when appropriate instead of adding to a “mega thread” (an already massive thread which is covering many topics).

Stupid threads do get closed but your thread doesn’t sound stupid.

As @Big-Red says, if others want to discuss the player then they will post in the thread. If not, at least you posted the information you wanted to share.

Banned from CE for failing to lavish praise on Corbyn. Bit pathetic but not unexpected. Given the very few voices in that thread who aren't acolytes of the man I can only imagine others have either received a similar fate, been given warnings or read the writing on the wall and stayed clear.

The thread is like a teenagers Tumblr page dedicated to One Direction, resembling a shrine. I can only blame myself for not realising in time that this is what the mods wanted it to be. Shame because very occasionally there are one or two decent posts in that thread but those posters always get hounded out by the cabal who evidently have the moderators backing and, given their regular belligerence, probably know this too.


Ah well, fair fecks. Your Jeremy Corbyn shrine is safe.

For some reason, the Football and United Forums are not displaying properly on PC, other Forums are fine, and also my reply box doesn't appear at all, on any Forum, again on PC.

Fine on phone.

Any ideas? Probably, when I try tomorrow, it will be fine, but was wondering if anyone else had an issue.

No caps lock, spelling errors or references to Adolf Hitler. You didn't even create a separate thread for it. Poor rant, 2/10.

Do you think that's the reason you were banned, or could it possibly be another reason?

Still not working today, but only on the Football & United Forums. Also, there is no posting box on any forums. It is on Chrome Version 69.0.3497.100. I am not using an adblocker.

I have tried on IE and it works fine and my phone browser is Chrome and that works fine too.

Strange that it's only those 2 Forums though. :confused:

I did call someone a twat in the Brexit thread in response to them telling me to "feck off" and calling me an "oddball", that's true.

That's the page not loading completely. Have you cleared the temporary files in the browser? I think there's perhaps a corrupt version of one of the elements in the cache.
Open an incognito window and see if they still look funny.
Alright, so now the Forums are displaying correctly but no posting box when I use Chrome.

When I use an incognito window in Chrome, all the Forums work correctly and I get a posting box. :confused:

Go into Chrome's setting, and search for "clear browsing data". Click that, check the "Cached images and files" box and then click the "Clear Data" button. See if it works after that.

Why is it that I can't login on my android phone unless I tick the stay logged in option? It has happened before, and I resolved it (can't remember how but I probably just cleared data/cookies or switched it off/on again. Doesn't happen on other browsers or on my windows laptop? Any ideas?

Try logging in in an incognito window without “Stay logged in” checked and see if it works.

If it does work it’s probably due to your cookies / cache so try clearing those for this site.

Thanks @Niall Just tried logging in incognito and it works. Cleared cache and brwosing data and still doesn't work in normal mode. Weird, I'll have a mess around and see if I can find a solution. May come back here if I'm struggling! :)

Current Xenforo installation doesn't fully support unicode which is what emoji uses, so some show up and not others.

When we upgrade to Xenforo 2.0, it does have full unicode support but would involve a database table collation change. Don't know if Niall would be doing that or not.

Yeah I’ll most likely be doing that.

Whether we want to allow emojis is another discussion though. I’m undecided right now.

Is the Caf not working for others when they're not on wifi too? (I mean when they're connected via data plan)

I've been trying to post for about 6 hours but kept getting timed out. Loading also wasn't as fast as when i'm connected via wifi.

There was an issue relating to IP6 a few weeks back but shouldn’t still be happening.

Any more info about you can provide about your device, network etc would be helpful.

Been fine for me, what browser & phone network are you on?

Google chrome, regular phone network for the county called ALFA telecom. (Lebanon).

Device is Samsung Galaxy S8
Network: Mobile data from my usual telecom company. 4g mobile internet.

Just now the home screen for redcafe took about 2 minutes to load up. Other sites are loading in milliseconds.
