Re: Kiffin's future...
At first I thought it was my internet and older ipad at home that was the problem, but when I got a new computer at work, I figured something was wrong with the site.
Re: Kiffin's future...
Typed this with my Mac on Safari with no problems. Yesterday there was a short lag (a half a second maybe) on my Chromebook running the latest Chrome OS. But it quickly went away.

Re: Kiffin's future...
I bought my wife and my daughter $200 ChromeBooks a couple of years back (Toshiba CB2's) and played with one of them for a week and loved it. Jumped on an Asus Flip 4gb when it released and turned my big hungry for power Ubuntu machine off and have fired it back up 2-3 times in the last year. Going to upgrade to the Samsung Chromebook Pro if they ever actually release the darn thing. Never going back to Windows, or Mac, or Linux or have to buy or use antivirus or malware protection.
Re: Kiffin's future...
I did but I forget when it was. It might have been a thread in the non sports section or in a PM to one of the admins. Its been a long time, started back when the board had major issues that last time (forget exactly when)

I wasn't able to watch that 30 minute video of The Saban Era without it switching to NBC NHL highlights, so I gave up and found it on YouTube....

Re: Kiffin's future...
I thought it was just on my end since I never saw anyone else mention it. I guess we all did.

Re: Kiffin's future...
I am just sick of this , if you reply with a quote you cant space between words. What is going on with the site, its a board issue with browsers or something. All we see are complaints but no resolutions.

I know it is very frustrating, but Brett and his staff will get this resolved, so be patient and lighten up. :cool2:

I went searching tonight for a Washington Huskies forum remotely similar to this site and came away disappointed. There is nothing like it (that I have found). Yes, when there are problems on the site it can be frustrating but no one owes it to you so chill out and give the guys time to get things working right. This is the best team related sports board on the internets and we are darned lucky to be able to enjoy it.
Re: Kiffin's future...
Just a head up for the site admins and tech and ad guys. Y'all are probably already well aware this was coming.

Re: Kiffin's future...
Hmm... Long ago, I decided that I would just do without it and I have. If I get the error messaged "Flash failed to load," or whatever, I just shrug and move on...
Re: Kiffin's future...
The site works fine. It has no more short term inconveniences than any site I've ever visited.
Come on folks, lighten up.
It's Tidefans. Best Bama site on the net, bar none.
It's gonna be allright.
sip

Site / browser issues resolved (?)
First, I'm sorry for those that were experiencing problems. We've been working the last few days to isolate the specific issues and believe it is now resolved. This may not be true for everyone, but I can no longer replicate it on my end across multiple platforms. The calendar no longer scrolls and all ads are muted.
IF anyone is STILL experiencing the issue as of today (Thursday, 12/15):
1) Clear your browser cache. Close your browser and then launch again. Open TideFans and try replying and new post and anything else that was giving you issues.
2) If, after clearing cache, you still have issues: Please send me a private message with the specific details about what you you're experiencing and what you can / can't do, what problems you're having, what type of browser (firefox, chrome, IE, etc) and OS (windows, linux, macOS, iOS, android, etc) and hardware (laptop, desktop, ipad, kindle fire, iMac, etc) you are using. Provide screen shots and be as specific with as many details as possible.
For those who are blocking ads, etc.: I would ask you to remember that this site is and has been ad-supported since the site launch nearly 18 years ago. We've made great strides over the years to deliver a robust, stable platform that we can all be proud of and call our "home." The server, service provider, and related services and software we have are world class. Sure, there are some crappy ads delivered on occasion out of the millions that are served each month but the vast majority are perfectly fine.
I would also ask that if you do experience any future ad or performance issues with the site or the ads, that you send me a private message or make a post in the Troubleshooting forum with detailed specifics instead of in the middle of a thread on the football or recruiting forum. The likelihood that I'll ever see or know about a mid-stream post is very remote.
