Title: Corruption on OOF.
Post by: feeutfo on 20 June 2012, 19:05:41
Not sure I should post this publicly, but ultimately I think you all should know.

I have uncovered what I believe runs to the very core of our community.

I had my suspicions but now you have raised the subject you are going to have to tell us. Whistleblow. You know you have protection. Google the location of the Ecaudorian Embassy

Damn, fell asleep. ;D

I think all you doubters will see, once the evidence is presented. I admire your belief and commitment to the cause, but all is lost. It's the beginning of the end. The very core of OOF and all we stand for is under threat, and it comes from within.

Imagine my horror when confronted with this, in the pic below you will see on my account, in the smileys row, corruption at the deepest level, A BLOODY GREAT BIG BLUE SMURF LADIES AND GENTLEMEN.
(http://i344.photobucket.com/albums/p326/chrisgixer/2b6b6dec.jpg)

Look, will you just look at that, who bloody put that there? ;D

It's no photo shop or Tom foolery of mine. It's admin, I'm certain. The first smiley has been replaced by a smirf. And that how they appear on my account. ;D

IPhone is the problem. Iirc it started when using the phone as a modem via personal hotspot. May have been coincidence.

Shows its miscaching stuff at the device level ;)

Not much we can do server end, other than ask browsers not to cache, but that would be daft (we allow browsers to cache our 'static' content (images/icons/css/javascript etc) and disallow caching of dynamic content (text of posts etc)). Of course, our servers request this browser action, ultimately its still down to the browser if it obeys our requests...

There is another issue that prevails while we're here.

The keyboard keeps closing. As it did on my n900 with disastrous effects if just typed out a reply, which gets lost.
At least the the iPhone doesnt loose the content though.

Can happen if you hit Done. I seem to do this frequently, bloody onscreen keyboards.  Usually comes back if you click in 'another' box (eg, title), then back in main reply box.

The server/software doesn't send requests to open/close keyboards - its entirely unaware of such a thing.

Hmmm, I refuse to install Chrome on any of my PCs. I prefer a browser with less bugs than a Libyan coffee shop.

Again, does cache clearing solve it, even temporarily?

woo Beaver. Swap phones....? ;D

 ;D ;D  :y

On a second look it's a chipmunk.   ;D Curiously, are all of these emoticons from the OOF reply page and preloaded avatars, as when my phone displays a weirdness, it has swapped emoticons that are readily available on OOF.  :-\

For example, in my reply to the Oxford Kassam thread I used 'roll eyes' but when I viewed it today it is 'tongue poking out'.
The border around the OOF page turns into Wacko avatar as shown earlier in this thread and the occasional Chipmunk turns up randomly.  ;D (that was a laughing smiley in case it changes)
This Chipmunk and Wacko are people's avatars, well I think they are as I can no longer tell what is real and what is dodgy.  ;D (that was a laughing smiley in case it changes)
Really looking forward to seeing Batman but he's a no-show so far.
I have cleared cache many times but the issue returns. This is an observation, not a complaint, as it really isn't that big a deal.

Now then, where's my methodone, in case I'm hallucinating.  ;D
