Not sure if I'm the only one who experiences this but quite often on any of the forum sections it will say : Last post by XXXX 2 minutes ago

When I click on the the thread to see what has been said the persons post is not there and I have to wait for about 5 minutes for it to appear. Is it a common problem with anyone else? Is there a way to stop it?

    hey guys,

    yeah this is a pretty common occurrence and to fix it try clicking control + f5 (to hard refresh your page). Sometimes your cache takes a while to update with incoming posts, nothing too much to worry about although i understand it can be a little annoying sometimes.

    I have that same problem I have tried "Cnt F5" and "f5" and neither refresh the page no matter how long I wait.

    For the record i'm using IE8 and Vista, I have tried Firefox and that just messed up my computer so I had to go back to IE.

    You are doing the hard refresh (Control F5) when viewing the thread, rather than viewing the thread index?
    Cuz it works for me (when viewing the thread obviously)....

    Hi kiwi, there has been a few updates to firefox, I would give it another try if I were you-- Its certainly a lot better than ie8 for me-- explorer gets on wick when I chat on the tables, it misses letters and stuff-- also firefox seems far more reliable at peek times---gl m8

    If Ctrl+F5 doesn't do the job try this, it never fails.

    1. Stand up
    2. Make a cup of tea
    3. Come back
    4. Read new forum posts

    I have the same problem, & F5 does not help I'm afraid.

    I use IE8 (on the BSKYB Intranet) at work, & Firefox when away from the Office. The problem applies to both browsers equally.

    It's not a disaster, but it does impair enjoyment Levels, especially on "hot" Threads.

    I tried this last night and it didn't work.  The refresh time was still to long!

    I considered an operational solution - putting more water (or even ice cubes) in the kettle to prolong boiling - but rejected it as environmentally irresponsible.

    I am currently running Sabichi hardware using Tetley tea bags.  Would it be better to upgrade the hardware (e.g. to Russell Hobbs) or to look for a soft solution such as moving to coffee?

    The product to elongate boiling times is currently in development, once they get the boiling time down to under a day it should be straight on the market.
