Any Ideas?
So...I think a lot of you now know that my NING account has been messing about for at elast a month now, probably longer. This is all the details I have about what's wrong with it, what i've discovered/ tested out, a a few random details that might help come to a conclusion. I sent a help email to NINg themselves but that seems to have come up a blank, with no reply, so let's see if we can brainstorm out of this one?
The Symptoms
1. The reply buton no longer works. I am unable to reply to another person's posts on any thread, as
clicking the reply link just shoots me to the top of the page and nothing happens.
2. Unless I'm starting a new discussion, the butto that allows me to attach a file to my post is completely absent, and the space it should be in is just...gone. The white bitis smaller and the replies start sooner.
3. Even if I am in the timeframe in which NING allows me to edit my post, the option is not possible to me anymore. It doesnt even come up with it as a suggestion - once it's posted, thats it. I cant correct or add anything without putting in another post to state it.
4. Though I can post blogs, I am unable to reply to them. It doesnt shoot me to the top of the page but instead just does nothing.
5. The chat is broken. It tells me I'm online with the little green light, but not how many people on the bar, as it should. Also, if I click anything to do with the chat it shoots me to the top of the page and again, nothing happens after this.
6. I cannot log out of my account the traditional way, as in pressing 'log out'. I have to go to my NING profile page and log out from there.
Discoveries to Date
1. The chat itself isnt broken, as I can access it from the 'chat' tab on the bar at the top of the discussions. As Max-Dan-Wiz lacks this button, I cant acces the chat on there at all.
2. Nothing is wrong with my account on another computer, which leads me to believe it is something my computer has picked up and is probably (effectively) blocking. I have no idea what it is, however, as I have tried emptying all histories, cookies and my cache and still it doesnt help me.
3. I have tried refreshing my browser, as well as logging in and out the long way, but to no avail.

Sorreh. :/
I'm not computer-y. Really, ask Devil's or Matt (though you probably don't know him, he used to help me with computer things until he moved to Nebraska and isn't allowed to make long-distance calls...)
Uhm... Best of luck?

This was a known issue about... uh... a year and a half ago, I'd estimate. Ning did some maintenance given that the problem effected pretty much every user and made a lot of sites unusable... as it is, hopefully they'll get back to you with some help.
The only thing I can think of is installing a new browser.

Number 1 happens when my page hasn't loaded fully. Anyway, try changing your security settings?

I use firefox, and it seems to run on internet explorer, but that is painstakingly slow and crappy .-.

I've known several people with similar problems. Most of them also had problems with sending PM's. From what I rememmber, it was resolved after doing massive cleanups on their comps.
