The site is bonkers this morning

Posted by Poorness Studios on March 8, 2020 at 10:51am in Using cigarboxnationcom - posting, profiles, web

It's not allowing me to like videos and I can't edit videos after I upload them (the edit menu has disappeared). Also, whenever I post a comment, it refreshes the whole page instead of just adding the comment like it used to. And I'm seeing a large number of blank comments. I'm assuming they aren't actually blank, so I'm guessing the site it not displaying them correctly.

BTW, I tried deleting my cookie and logging back in... no change.

What the heck is going on?

    Hmmmm, still lots of blank posts, very annoying. And photos apparently.
    Taff.

     I hope they get it fixed before it kills this forum. I've seen it happen several times. It already seems to have slowed down...

      Maybe the server has Covid-19 ;-)

    I've been getting email notices in triplicate when I comment on a video and someone else follows up with a comment.

      Me too. I wasn't sure if that was because people were having to reply 3 times to get it to work or if it was a bug.

    I don't want to get us in an anti-Facebook rabbit hole but let's just say Cybersecurity is my day job. I deal with data privacy day in and day out... and I won't touch Facebook. I could go on and on but I'll stop there.

      I've been using the Firefox addon called Facebook Container for some time. It puts everything Facebook in a secured space away from everything. Ever since I learned that even if you don't have a Facebook or Instagram account they still actively follow you and gather information about your whereabouts, it makes me feel a bit safer... I also use a cookie autodelete addon and the EFF Privacy badger.

    As of this morning, I can edit photos/videos again but I still am having trouble posting comments.

    (side note: this is the second time I'm posting this because it failed the first time)
