RCU exhibiting wonky behavior again?
I have 5 different browsers on my machines, ie, Safari, Firefox, Chrome and Sea Monkey and RCU has been hehaving most wonky on all of them on win XP , win 7 and ( ugh ) win 8...
Wonky being the technical term we use ( login, session etc ), anyone else having issues with RCU?

I almost exclusively use Firefox, currently version 41.0.1 right now, on Windows 7 Ultimate. I just always stay auto-logged in to RCU, so I have also had RCU intermittent issues with the auto login when coming to the site on many occasions over the last few years.
However, I can't remember the last time I actually had to manually re-type in my login info . . . every time I have encountered the auto-login issue, it has eventually auto corrected by one of several different actions I've taken, or a combination of them ... either refreshing the page once, or even several times, deleting browser cache and then refreshing page, deleting browser cache then shutting down and restarting the browser.
Every time I see posts about this issue and have also encountered it, doing the above things has always ended up correcting the issue where the auto-login just worked again. Maybe I'm just lucky, lol, though that would be a first !!!

Hey Jerry... normally I would say to pull tighter on the string but I too have problems here, and only here.
It started after they upgraded the website (or whatever the technical term is these days) as logging in at certain times of the day are problematic. Could be traffic, I don't know.
We did loose features like blocking our favorite members and reporting threads/replies but all in all, it is free so I stay on. Glad you haven't left as I do enjoy your experience and large scale armor too!

I had trouble for 2 days. Friday it worked....but barely. Ads are pain, but the Viagra ad on the elevation post was ironic.

Viagra adds? I'm not getting anything like advertising, just the screen is compressed from the RCU Reviews at the right.
The log-in problems is the issue with me... just during busy times of the day.
Oh well, it IS free.

I am VERY displeased about the ads invading the OP's first post. I do not like my post being invaded by an ad. It makes it appear as if I approve of that ad to an unsuspecting tanker. I have sent a PM to an admin to see what is up and maybe a clarification on it.

My Feedback: (5)
Well the moderator said "the ad will not be removed and will look into doing something for the small number of people complaining."

In my opinion there is a large number of people complaining.
If some of you would post in this thread maybe they would see the increasing number of unhappy users:

Nothing is free however the decision not to remove ads from paying member's posts which I consider a cavalier attitude
AND the on going login problems will make me reconsider RCU also. Trying to determine the lesser of two weevils.
Some of us are silent outside of posting gripe threads as I did. We just stop using a thing.

I have no problem with ads, but when they are inserted into a post that totally messes up the formatting where the thread is unreadable (Tablet) then something needs to be done. Like Tanque said, many will just stop using the tool that causes so much frustration without saying a word. The result is the same. It is not like this is the only forum on the internet
It sounds like there has been enough noise that they know about the problem. I am just saying that for me, if this continues, I will find another forum to participate on.

For me , the ball is in RCU's court. I will wait and see what happens. Complain or not people will migrate to what is causing them less trouble. As a retailer you know the saying. "fF you are happy with my service tell others, if you are unhappy tell me" We can't fix what we don't know about. Hopefully RCU takes this seriously. IF this was my business I know I would.,
