Sometimes 3rd parties have to deal with issues and handle things not the end user who can only request assistance when an error appears and join the queue. I have no idea. What I do know is that TVF was the only site that caused me a problem of the 10 or so random sites that I checked. What I also believe is that if TVF is the only site to use the Invision platform, perhaps they should ask around other sites and migrate to a better platform. Part of the TVF problem is that they seem to do "upgrades" of the forum without giving notice, and when it turns into rodents excretia, nobody is able to contact the techies. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also they, I mean TV's advertising customers, should see that too many adds crammed into one screen are neutralising each other. And as a forum member I'd rather leave than use it within add blocker. Mines nice and tidy My normal view here 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes actually I am. that out of two reasons. As many faults as it is with this page and forum, that actually points to Thai quality and handy work. Concerning the hardware, I would assume they must have it in Thailand, due to it´s specific information and that they are constantly worried of us writing something that will upset the powers that are. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrandPapillon Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 I think they are hosted in the US or Singapore, and using CloudFront or some other geoip system to "manage" ingress traffic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes 3rd parties have to deal with issues and handle things not the end user who can only request assistance when an error appears and join the queue. I can think of one forum here in Pattaya that uses the same version of Invision and Cloudflare. No problems on that site and never had popups. Also had the same upgrade recently, the "go to top of page" arrow disappeared but quickly returned, unlike TV. Maybe TV should contact them and ask to borrow their techies?

fdsa Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 Hosting in Thailand is incredibly overpriced, there is no point in local hosting at all. Thaivisa seems to be hosted on Amazon in Singapore. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume that if you found a workaround you would have passed it around on the forum, which very few people could access and would therefore not have been able to read it. I found a work around and send 6 PM to the 6 posters that were on line at the time, no thank you received, thus decided to stop forwarding the work around 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Litlos Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 Appears to be a poorly implemented attempt to stop ad blockers. Get rid of add blocker and I can see most of front page. The work around click the forums button and do not use the front page, pain in the ass yes, or just don't come back. up to you. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
