Ok then, Check what version of Firefox your using and make sure it's compatible with the new site.

Or check to make sure the resolution your using is one that the sites is compatible with.

2:10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
2:11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
2:12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

That happens sometimes to me too. It fixes when I make another post usually.

Well if it already is then it's something wrong on your end. maybe you need more space reserved for your cache. Change that in options.

Maybe your just need to reply more often so that your comp can cache the data for the reply page.

or type slower ;)

I'm using the same settings you're and I have no issues with it at all.

you should have already done that if you followed all the previous instructions.

  • 03.29.2007 8:18 PM PDT

*Sgt

I'm having the same problem, but it only happens for about one in ten times I make a reply... don't know whats causing it. Deleting cookies and other internet stuffs doesn't do anything for that either.. so..

What browser type and version are you using.

This is not a solution for this particular problem. The text is displaying slow due to the nature of the JavaScript that counts the characters in the text box then refreshes the number right above it ("x characters remaining"). I know this for a fact because Achronos said so, and because I'm a web developer myself and I've had to deal with the same issue on more than one occasion. At Bungie.net, the slowness seems to manifest itself in all versions of Firefox (I believe), and the typing should work better in IE6 and IE7 (If memory serves me correctly).

The solution: Just be patient and it might be fixed in an update.

Not the solution: Clearing cookies, cache, etc. You'll just end up loosing all your stored passwords and... Er... Sorry: Too late.

How about having Notepad open next to your browser? Type your posts in there then copy and paste them straight in. Might be quicker. :]

I have the same problem with Firefox. I have the add-on that allows you to switch to IE 7 though, and that works for now until the bug is fixed.

I work for the Department of Defense.

Heres a pretty decent solution. (I have this problem with the PM system, not posting)

Go to your desktop, Right click > create new text document.

Open that .txt up, Write your post in that, Copy & Paste it into the body, edit all your typo's and your off.

It would even work on any other place you could type (Like the text area on some other website). If you do that, though, I would definitely keep checking back at the forum, because I'm sure they'll fix it sometime.
