I am having an annoying problem on this board, and only on this board.
If I open Hunter's Campfire, it opens to today's threads.. If I read a thread, then hit the "back" button, it takes me back to the threads of two or three days ago. . Then, if I want to go back to the today's page, I have to hit "refresh". This only occurs on this board, no other boards are affected. Any ideas? Thanks.

Ongoing problem. This site is plagued with it. You will be told that you have to load this program, or that program, and use this browser, or that browser, and hold you mouth just right or it won't work. Even though many readily admit that this site is the only one that causes them that list of problems, they will vilify what YOU are doing and using, and tell you how to fix it...  The root cause of the problem is still not addressed.

Neither are the fixes. So, either you didnt know there are problems, in which case recommended fix would apply, or you knew about them and bitch for the sake of bitching?

I ASKED for anyone knowing how to fix it to tell me, all I get is some dipshitt making snide remarks. Chuck you, Farley.

Easy answer, YOU cant fix it, considering you cant search for "computer help" and find the answer posted a million times.

Several issue with this site and only this site. While some of the fixes do away with the problem, my ability to participate is affected as well. The site itself seems fine, so it think it's related to some of the advertising.

One interesting "Fix" is that we have to use Ad Blocker Plus. Which I have to use to navigate this site. It does away with the ads that advertisers want us to see... Think about that for a min. ....

Instead of using the back button, try using the "hop to" button at the bottom of the page

I did. I want to control what ads show on my computer, not allow others to do so.

Since some people have NO problems here, it HAS to be the device and/or software the user has. Desktop Laptop Tablet Kindle Phone (and brand and software) not all devices are equal. HOW people access the forum is an important part of problem ID, IMO. but I'll leave that to the geeks.

I don't have a problem with my browser's back button.
Ad services rent space to show ads on the Campfire. I believe, don't know for sure, the problem arises from javascript embedded in the ads to do flashy things. Sometimes, if poorly or nastily written (not necessarily malicious) they generate bad side effects. Is possible to filter at the server but getting it perfect is a lot to ask of Rick on a free site, he's got other things he needs to do.
I took to blocking Java scripts and JavaScript (they are different) and Flash long ago on all sites and granting permission when I want it to run. This is good Internet security particularly when you visit sites that you don't know are safe. Mild nuisance having to grant permissions though if you don't give a site permanent permission.
In my case NoScript and Adblock Plus (belt and suspenders to some degree) on Firefox. Haven't had to deal with other browsers.
