thaibeachlovers Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 Anyone else having problems with the page flickering? Seems like a refresh problem. Doesn't happen on other sites. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speedo1968 Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 Been having this for more than 2 weeks. Site also often never fully loads even after 30 mins or so. Have had 403 Error code a few times Seems to accept new postings. Does this with whichever browser I use, Do not have this problem with other web sites.

thaibeachlovers Posted February 22, 2020 Author Share Posted February 22, 2020 Thank you. Confirms that it's not just my computer. This forum has multiple problems because of something we are not allowed to discuss. I've been on TVF long enough to remember when it functioned perfectly, all the time. Happy days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ubonjoe Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 I had that problem a few years ago until I increased the memory on my PC. Only had 2 GB and upped it to 4 GB. Now have one with 8 GB and the forum loads real fast. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saltire Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 Had this problem for a week now seen a post from tech support saying it would stop in a few days (it's still there) once the AI sorted out the adverts. AI behind a clunky site like this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only had 2 GB and upped it to 4 GB. Now have one with 8 GB and the forum loads real fast. I bought a "new" computer ( reconditioned second hand one ) after TVF ceased working on my tablet. It is used only for internet- mainly TVF, and it worked fine till the site went down a few days ago. Since then the flickering started. At the moment pages load quite fast, but flickering still happening. EXTREMELY annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post madmitch Posted February 24, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 24, 2020 Had the same problem for a couple of weeks and pages are loading so slowly today. I think the server is suffering from coronavirus. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

faraday Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 The pages are very slow to load; it's all a bit tedious really, & tvf rarely seems to function correctly. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post neeray Posted February 24, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 24, 2020 I have had no problems but Jesus XXXXXX are those "flickering" ads ever annoying. The so-in-your-face concept really isn't necessary. In fact, if they weren't so annoying, I might actually read the odd one. But such as it is, I couldn't even tell you what they're about because I refuse to look straight at them. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speedo1968 Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 Should we be concerned over what is happening when logging in to TVF ???!!! Are we at risk, I don't think so but ..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am personally grateful for the google vignette ads on my tablet, they take so long I just go do something else, its a sign of enough thaivisa for the day. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mavideol Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 I brought up the same problem almost 2 weeks ago and still have it, I use Firefox and the tab doesn't stop indicating ""transferring data from forum.thaivisa.com"" now it's a little less but still does that annoying flickering 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post otherstuff1957 Posted February 24, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 24, 2020 ^Same here, I use Firefox and for the last week or two the site has been flickering - sort of jumping up and down. Sometimes I have to scroll up or down to find the spot I was reading or typing. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ill speak to Invision and also the Ad partner. TD And the page doesn't fully load and "Transferring data from forum.thaivisa.com" is always showing in bottom LH corner of screen. You've known about this for some time now, at least a week. I don't see any ads due to a previous problem with the "VDO" ad which, to my knowledge didn't get resolved.

thaibeachlovers Posted February 24, 2020 Author Share Posted February 24, 2020 16 hours ago, Tech Doctor said: Define flickering, do you mean when an advert shows and disappears? TD Nothing to do with ads. It's like a refresh problem, as I already said. Sometimes the page "jumps", but not usually significantly, but sometimes it does. At the moment, all ads loaded and the flickering is intense. Happening every few seconds. Never happened before the big problem on TVF last week. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maverell Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 Annoying is not the word. It is nothing to do with PC specs, it is the amount of adverts, especially the pop up that reloads every few seconds at the bottom right of the screen. I am out of here until the situation is rectified. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
