    Looks like the intro area etc has been upgraded, updated and much improved...I like it, it's much clearer to navigate.

    Something seems to have happened. Is it my imagination but is the reading panel wider than it was?

    The font appears smaller and clearer? No I haven't changed any settings and other websites remain the same.

    Yes definite changes. I noticed new fonts on the headings and, yes, the read view for messages is wider.

    I've only had two all day. Funny how I think that's an improvement.

    Is it me or am I right in thinking that by clicking on "club together" the only access is to latest activity rather than access to both latest activity or discussions titles in general?

    No change for me, Brue. Perhaps it's device specific.

    Yes, how weird, I was on my Android phone earlier, totally different from the laptop I'm using just now.

    The OP posted in February that the site was very slow.  It’s still painfully slow.  It would appear that either the IT team at CAMC don’t care about the user experience or they are being denied the resources they need to fix the problem.  I wonder which it is?

    As I understand it the server side of the Club IT operations is contracted out which I expect rather ties the hands of Club staff. Obviously money is probably at the root cause but Club management have to strike a reasonable balance on that score. Their main concern will be that the booking side of the site takes priority. Even if we moved the forum away from the main website by using stand alone software it would still need supporting by sufficient server capacity which can be very expensive. We have muddled along like this for, what is it, nine and a half years!!!!

    you say that David as though the booking side of the side runs well ... it doesn't. It's as slow & cumbersome as CT

    I don’t personally have any issues with the booking side of the site. Occasionally it might run a little slow if a lot of folk are booking. However, that will probably be true of most holiday type sites at the moment. It was certainly the case when I amended our Brittany Ferries booking a week ago.

    I can only say that I have rarely experienced any problems with the Booking side of the site. Obviously in the last two years I have perhaps not used it as much as normal years but when I have it's been fine.

    I think they have erected a stasis field around CT. it’s the only explanation as time seems to stand still when I try and access a discussion.😂 Or in fact do anything.☹️

    Its not just at night this site is slow at any time. I have tried it from 3 different locations ,all with fibre broadband and on a Mac , windows and Android and its a woefully performing website. If I were the management I would be having a word with whomever is hosting this web site and get them to do some serious performance analytics and get it fixed .

    Can we have a new section called CHBR? 

    (Content Has Been Removed).

    I’m always wondering what was said that required such censorship.

     

    ( I expect this might be a candidate?)   😂😂😳

    My rhyming couplet was removed, it wasn't that bad but not exactly Yeats or Wordsworth.....wink

    The effect on me has been profound, I am giving up writing poetry. laughing

    The What are you all up to thread seems to have developed a gremlin. It locked up when I was posting something. Now the only way I can get to the last page, is to go to an earlier one and work forward. Although it does not work all the time. This  site gets worse.☹️

    I get server error when I try to go straight to the last page.

    I'll report your post, Steve, to bring the issue to Ro's attention.
