Works fine for me - well it doesn't crash. Definitely some issues with the domain cookie settings - constantly get logged out, and there out definitely some dead links - the home page link leads to a wordpress login page (https://www.e30zone.net/barbara/)

Interestingly if you log out, the home page leads to the home page. It only leads to the wordpress page if you are logged in. I have a link to a logged out page for that event.

Other than that it works fine. No crashing and can post pictures no problem :D

Mine does the same mate no matter what browser I use.

It seems to happen when I try to upload more than 1 pic.

Then it logs me out for a day. I'm guessing it thinks I am spamming the site as I tried with a VPN to block my IP address and it allowed me to log back in.

:? :?

Just to prove my point i just tried to update my build thread.

Uploaded a few pics and now its locked me out and all I get is this:

I've turned on my VPN on and the site works as normal again :?

Does the site think I'm a bot spamming when adding a few pics?

I still want to use the forum to keep my thread alive but this is getting annoying..

Yep exactly the same for me and as you say it fucks your login for the day.

For any moderators watching, can anything be done about this?

Hi guy`s, Steve the owner of the site has had a bit of a rough time recently and my other go to guy Iain sadly has recently passed away (Steve and Iain were very good friends and co starters of the Zone) so we may have to wait a little for things to get back to "normal".
If I could do anything i really would but sadly my knowledge of software is nill.
Thanks for your understanding guy`s.

I did wonder if the issue was because of Ian's sad passing and wasn't going to say anything but saw this post and thought I'd talk about my recent experience as well 😞😞

Rough times for the Zone but hopefully one day it will be close to it's former glory as I really do miss the old days on this site!

Take care everyone

Hi All,

Apologies, I know the site needs some serious maintenance!

I did a few updates yesterday, let me know if it has made any difference.

Liam had a few issues last week trying to update his S38 Touring build but think he sorted it eventually.
