If you said the Green Bar of Loading, right you are!

Well, I was still clicking "Open in a New Window" for quotes at least half the time out of habit, anyway. Looks like I don't have to break that habit now.

I have yet to see this thing. It's the Bigfoot of APS.

We did a clean install, again. Site doesn't look compromised. What browser and OS are you using?

I'm talking to the hosting company about migrating us to SMF 2.x. With my limited access, it didn't go through the last time I tried. So we're up to date with the latest SMF 1.x software.

SMF File   Your Version   Current Version
SMF Package   SMF 1.1.21   SMF 1.1.21
Sources   1.1.20   1.1.20
Default Templates   1.1.21   1.1.21
Language Files   1.1.21   1.1.21

You too? I figure I must be doing something wrong (or right) to have never had this issue.

Same. I've never seen it in any browser.

Same thing I've been using for the last 4 years at the office...

Chrome 60.031 and Windows 7 Enterprise.

Standard desktop loadout here at the office.

Also happens with Intardnut Exploder.

I absolutely don't doubt people are seeing it. I just find the randomness bizarre.

I get the GBOL this morning. It has been working since the last repair. So strange.

230RN · « **Reply #9 on:** September 15, 2017, 11:29:32 AM »

GBOL: yes.
Porn stuff: no
"Intardnut Exploder": yes, 11, :laff:
Strange addressing in PMs: No

So is the random disappearance of avatars. These days,for example, I see avatars in this thread for Ben, 230RN, P12 and HeroHog ... but RevDisk, Mike Irwin and Dogmush are avatar-less. And my avatar doesn't show up.

I'm actually avatar-less. I haven't put a new one up after the photobucket thing.

Oh crapola, it is back. For the last week or two I would get the GBoL for just a few seconds, then the quote function would work. Now it's back in all of its colorful goodness.

Ha HA!

Count me in the crowd that's never witnessed the green bar of loading.

I've not had an avatar for many years.

Dumb question.

Could the randomness be explainable by the varying software at the ISP level?

Told you it was a dumb question, but if all other explanations fail, examine your premises.

There must be software from different sources available to ISPs, no? Maybe one "brand" interacts with SMF in certain circumstances to generate the problem: It loads the quote bar, then stops that process from the quote button, but not from the right-click, open in new tab process.

At least that would be an explanation as to why one lucky person and not another, and why some browsers and not others.

I'm not signing this one so nobody knows who the clown is.
