Almost EVERY time I try to reply or even post. WHY??? (I know this is probably not the right section, but I didn't see a bugs section.)

I've not had any problems since the switch, liking these new forums, though. Me thinks the DLC sections of the Fallout 3 forums could be in General Discussion. They'd probably get more replies and attention.

Only advice I have is if you're using Explorer... do what most people did a few years back and switch to Firefox. :laugh:

Nope - I quit using IE quite some time ago and have been a Firefox user ever since.

EDIT: It took 3 times to get my reply to post. Same error every time. Could it be cookies somehow?

I've had the "secure key" error two or three times in the past couple weeks, using the latest (well, at least before this afternoon's update) version of Firefox. I figured it was due to taking a while to type up a post, since I haven't seen it on a quick reply. /shrug

Solution:

Log in, save a shortcut to your desktop or save as a 'favourite' on your browser.

Next time you want to scope the forums, click on either and bang! You're in and can post, reply, etc.

Opera here and the forums run mostly fine. There are some 500 - Internal Server Errors but I assume everyone has them.

Firefox. I get a similar error writing posts or sending PMs more than a few sentences long. I copy everything from Notepad now.

My guess would be that it may have to do with the amount of time you take composing a post. Even before the switch (years before!), the server would discard your post if you took to long to add it [too long might be 6 minutes?].

When this happened you would get an error page with the option to copy your post, and would have to reload the thread and add a new post (and usually paste in the copied old one).
