Deemed to be "not secure" in my browser!

Could this be a large factor in there being less posts and views?
This is due to us being on a positive run. It’s been proven!

One of our overseas supporters has contacted me because he is unable to access the forum. He doesn't have a login and only likes to view the posts but each time he tries to enter the site he gets a message informing him that he has been banned indefinitely. Would one of the admins have any idea how this can be overcome?

Still insinuates that we're in "League 2" on the landing page :P
Also if I could be made a mod on the predicta section, please, that might be helpful.

Ping a PM to Admin, Shade. I don't *think* us regular mods can make either of those changes. I remember looking a while back and couldn't see an obvious way of doing them.

Sorry Shade,

You are now a mod of the prediction league forum.

Anyone else noticing a distinct 'lag' on here in the last couple of days? Click a link - 3 second pause - link opens. Not a huge problem, just unusual.

I have and it’s something I’m looking in to. Tapatalk is very slow too.

When you say click a link, do you mean between forums or external links?

A button then, change page, submit, stuff like that.

Tapatalk ? I haven't been able to use this forum on Tapatalk (on android) for months...

It has been running slow today , then suddenly around 5:15 pm today, it has started running at its normal fast speed. Odd?

Not sure I saw any improvement yesterday at any time, Duke - but it's suddenly working fine now so I'm guessing Admin has gotten into the office!

Now, about Tapatalk.... 😉

Consistently get the following:

Network error, please try again later. (get_config)

Been like that for a getting on for a year.

I've been doing some maintenance and would be interested in any feedback if it's helped?

I get adverts every 2 or 3 posts on android/chrome, not sure if that's anything. I don't get them on any other devices, which seems a bit weird.

I'm on Android. I see an advert on the home page screen once in a blue moon - but never anywhere else. Certainly not mid-thread.

Seems to be getting worse and worse, with the odd full page ad after clicking a forum link, which I have to click out of. The last couple of days I've started also occasionally getting a white page with something about waiting whilst I'm redirected, which doesn't go anywhere and won't go back, so I have to close the tab. It's beginning to feel like a dodgy streaming site...not that I know what those are like.
