Have they paid the bill?

Have they paid the bill?

Didn't find your answer?

I keep getting redirected to visualdna and an "endpoint" error.

Is this a ploy to make the website more interesting? I have to repeatedly try different ways to get at reading the content? 

Another excellent improvement =)

Thanks for the heads up dear leader. I'm afraid this isn't an attempt to jazz up the site. Will point our tech bods in the general direction of this page.

Cheers,

Tom

And why is the text and buttons etc so big on the site? All other sites I use are reasonable size so it's not my browser settings. I'm constantly having to scroll up and down on aweb.
It all feels a bit messy too. Like posting a commment, you read it through, get to the bottom, click edit, and realise you have edited your "update me when..." but not the comment. You have to scroll right back up to top and look to the right.
It doesn't feel as user friendly as it used to be. (sorry I mean no offence site builders).

Shucks - so what John keeps telling us is true?

In all seriousness Tom and, you seem to be the only who might take our comments more seriously, is there any possibility of having a forum, or selection of members, who could sensibly discuss and negotiate the way forward with AWeb? Some good and long established members have been lost from the community and, if something isn't addressed quickly I'm sure many more members will go the same way.
One only has to follow some of the content here

It's becoming really embarrassing now Tom and someone needs to start to admit it isn't working.
Sorry for the rant but I'm seriously thinking about calling it a day myself.

That's a good point actually. I have stopped coming by becuase I find the site has gone a bit "childish" somehow. It almost feels like an attempt at a social site - which I suppose it is, but I don't want that. I want a professional site.

It must be six months now since the site has moved over. I think we can safely say that nothing else is going to change or be improved. We either accept or move on. Such a shame. I do love the banter.

Just an update on what's been happening. I've been informed that the issue is around 'a rogue ad that had some code put into into it redirecting to a third party'.

Our IT team are still working on final fix, but to make sure users aren't disrupted they've disabled a large part of our ad network whilst we pin-point the offending ad and block it. Once that's done we'll turn the networks back on.

Thanks for your patience.

Thanks, Tom, but do you have a response to the points made by both Whinger and Red Kite, which I'm sure that most (almost certainly, all) members share?
