I'm hearing ya, I think I'll give the site a break for a while, it's handy to jump on for a browse in between tasks at work or on my phone when I'm sitting at home doing FA, but it takes ages to do either now and I can't seem to skip around the ads when on my phone.

It boots me out every time now as well, it usually keeps me logged in for weeks.


No wonder that Wedgie bloke did a runner, site gone to shit :shock:

As I stated in DOC’s thread on this topic, removing guest user access will significantly improve the situation.

Currently, anyone can go to any forum page on the site, so bots have unrestricted access. Look at the guest user list, you’ll see a heap trying to compose a PM or download a file, things only a real user can do, so they aren’t true guests just reading posts as was designed.

The site is based on a very old software platform that is held together by sticky tape and glue, so there isn’t a lot than can be done, but removing guest access is a simple step that will help (if it’s an option than can be enabled!).
Dunno, I’m just an idiot.
