Pprune unstable ??
Last couple of days, I seem to have a problem when logged into Pprune....
Screen scrolling is very 'jerky'....Page constantly seems to be resizing, larger to smaller....And very slow response times when changing pages.... Only seems to happen on Pprune, and not other sites.... Running Windows 7 and using regular MS browser.... Any ideas, please, anyone ?? |
Pprune unstable ??
Well you solved your own problem. Switch to another browser (Firefox or Chrome) and your problems won't manifest I suspect. IE uses a completely different framework to the others and you'll find a much better experience.
|
I AM using Chrome and have noticed that when loading the screen PPRuNe doesn't refresh in one fell swoop but seems to load from the top down. Not a problem at all but there is a difference to other websites.
|
Same problem as OFSO, running Windows Vista. Why does Pprune do this?
|
Probably down to the enormous volume of ads and the associated content displayed from 3rd party web sites.
But that's how PPRuNe pays its bills... SD |
Now that you mention it, one has had such experiences with the site in the last 2 months perhaps, though for me it lasts no more than 1-2secs and includes a black screen beforehand for 0.5sec. Otherwise no real issues on Safari.

OK...Thanks everyone...Nice to know it's not just me and my machine....
Dave....Quite true - using Firefox it isn't quite as bad as IE but PPRuNe is still not as ' stable ' as other sites....But I do tend to avoid using it as I have had two fairly nasty hijack viruses ( Viri ?? ) which got through Firefox.... Worst of all, though, is the Daily Hatemail Site which just seems to hang every time on both browsers - probably just far too much content on a single page + embedded videos....Just hope PPRuNe doesn't get as bad as that site one day.... |
PPRuNe is so infested with advertising greed these days, that it is indeed unstable.....
Regardless of browser, ISP or OS......... Geese and golden eggs, anyone? |
PPRuNe is so infested with... |
I don't have a problem with the site. ;)
|
Works fine for me, using Firefox.
Don't think I've often- if ever - seen an ad, either. |
Working fine with Palemoon and Adblock Plus .....ads a thing of the past.
|
Firefox + Adblocker = WTF's an ad?
|
I use Firefox and have experienced similar problems to Hussar 54's in the past few days, but again not with any other sites, although this evening everything seems to be stable.

pprune not responding
Apologies if this has been covered before.
I have a particular problem with pprune. Very very frequently now I get the message "pprune not responding", and followed by a blank page. I then have to reload pprune to get back in. Is this allied to the problems noted in this thread? This does not happen on other aviation forums I follow. OPF |
What browser and version are you running? Are you using any plugins? What site function are you doing when the message comes up?
|
IBobi
I am running Windows 7 with IE9. not too sure about plugins!!!
Is this the info. you want? I get a blank page at anytime when looking at Forums/threads,pprune just locks up. Sometimes I can "Backpage" and its then ok It is geting so bad, it is putting me off going on pprune, which I enjoy and look at a lot. Hope this problem can be identified. With thanks OPF |
Have you tried visiting using another browser? Chrome and Firefox are excellent.
|
Never had any problems with the site.
But, some of the posters:ugh:, that's another story:ok: |
What about 'search'. It clearly doesn't work for me - maybe there has been some announcement but, since I don't appear to be able to search, I can't find it.
|
What kind of search are you doing? What happens when you do it? What browser and version are you using?
|
Is there a time delay before search terms are indexed? I've just tried to search for posts containing the word "Search" in this forum and the most recent result is 7 months ago, despite the fact that the word appears in the previous post. Similarly with the word "browser".
:confused::confused::confused::confused::confused: SD |
Are you using Thread Search or the regular Search function?
|
For me it is regular search, and advanced search, using Safari mostly but I've tried other browsers (Firefox, Chrome) with similar (non)results.
e.g. search for Typhoon and get no recent results despite at least 2 current threads in mil. |

This is what I see when I do an advanced search for keyword "Typhoon" in Chrome. You see something different? I'm getting results as recent as today. |
Very similar. So where are these threads:

Search problems - use google
Most web sites' in-built search is pretty poor. I always try google first.
eg "site[colon]pprune.org typhoon missile" "site[colon]pprune.org +typhoon -missile" --must have word typhoon musn't have word missile. - replace [colon] with a colon -- one of these :::::: - don't type the quote marks. In google that allows searching for complete phrases. Sometimes returns an "archive" version of the pprune site but there are links to the main site from there. |
Search still odd. Posted today in a thread about Chivenor but here is the search result and it is not shown. Just pick a word from the front page (say 'Finningley') and see if you get that thread in your results.
