Alan, the membership data is held on a separate webserver and so may need defining in your browser as a 'safe' website to visit.
Go to Tools / Internet Options / Privacy and click on the Sites button.
Then in the box provided, enter https://vault2.secured-url.com and click the 'Allow' button. This will ensure your browser allows access to the membership area.

If you continue to have access problems, please send an email to webteam and we'll investigate further.

I keep receiving this message and others like it regularly and have never had them before, only when accessing the site ??

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 12582912 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 84 bytes) in Unknown on line 0

If I keep trying or refreshing I can sometimes get on the site ????

OK it is well known i'm a complete buffon when it comes to IT (well not just IT, but however...............)

This is not a dig at the Webteam who have no doubt worked very hard to get the new site up and running. I prefer vbulletin........but the access problem is merde.

I've heard comment its down to the volume of users, but i also lurk on another site for wanna be Charley Boremans who want to wander round the world on bikes.

It is not a club and therefore not funded by subscription, does not seem to be funded by advertising, yet on average has at least 500 active users logged, and frequently more, yet it never crashes, or never has access problems, fatal errors etc.

Whats the difference or current problem with getting onto the site, or getting messages saying server too busy? Is it hosted in some big wonderfull hi tech place or in a garden shed.

This is not a snidey dig, its a genuine question from someone who has problems just turning a computer on, and has been known to throw a computer across the room and jump up and down on it. That produced a fatal error

I'm sure i'm not the only village idiot who wants to know, but too embarrased to ask.

Why when i do a search,for say "Spaghetti" from my previous posts,are the pictures not there?

I wanted to send someone a link,to save having to send large jpg files.

if you put someone on ignore do they know this?

[Iconic944ss]

From the vBulletin user forum:

"The built in ignore system that comes with vBulletin only allows you to stop viewing the ignored members posts, but say they were the last person to post on a thread, their username still shows up as the last user to post even though they're on your ignore list."

Interesting - I dont think the user knows they are being 'ignored' - you could always PM the user and tell them they are being ignored
