I can’t post or reply on a laptop.

I can only use Quick Reply to post and can't copy a post, or Quote.

PC, tablet or phone makes no difference.

Also posts are darker with no lines and thanks button has all but disappeared.

Is anyone able to get in touch with the Webmaster for this site, is it one of the 2 Administrators, Back from USA or Club President??

changing the board styles makes no difference and neither does a different browser

It looks like the site finally melted.


The Saints are under review, will it make any difference to the underachievers ?

We should be thankful that there are those who pay to keep the site up and put in the time to maintain it. Clearly there is an issue at the moment but I'm sure it will be fixed in the fullness of time. In the meantime, just watch this:

OK have contacted the phpBB guru and asked him to load the latest phpBB version of software which may solve the problem

We then might have to re-load things like the video and emoji capabilities but should hopefully solve the posting issue.

Thanks.

Just to confirm most people including me can only post via the “quick reply” button.

We can’t use the “Post Reply” button, we can’t quote and can’t start a new thread.

No like button, no spacing/lines between posts, the main page also looks different. I emailed "contact us" yesterday but only got an automated reply.

Good work BFU, it might be worthwhile to explain to everyone what the costs are for running this website, hosting fees for example, and who or rather how that is paid for.
