Hi all,

Thanks for the feedback. The "My Stuff" timestamp issue should now be fixed. Please let us know if you are still experiencing this.

Thanks,
Dom
Just out of interest, what was the cause?

yes

Yet again.

Of all the sites I use regularly, this one is by far the least reliable.

Haymarket are only interested in the news section (ads) and the classifieds (direct income).
They obviously have no interest in the forums (which was the initial core of ph).
Why don't they do us a favour and sell the forums off to someone who gives a damn?!

There is a consistent failure with the site and Haymarket doesn't appear very interested in providing a good user experience. I for one am losing interest in the site, the chances of winning the lottery seem to be at parity with chance of pistonheads being online.

Someone needs to buck up their ideas!!!!!

'Service unavailable' last night and again first thing this morning. Have the hamsters been replaced by tortoises?

Just had an approx 30 minutes with forum pages loading and contributions previewing, but not posting...the attempts timed out each time and the "something's wrong" message appeared eventually.

Everyone complaining about how bad the sites reliability is etc should demand a refund (oh and also run a forum for a while - it is one of the most thankless tasks I have ever undertaken).
