From Psynews facebook page:

I've just validated him(?). I'm guessing the reason his previous attempts were unsuccessful was because his IP address is in an online database of spammers. There are only a few hits and they're from a couple of months back, which usually signifies that the address was previously used by a spammer but has since been reassigned. However the fact that his username also looks like a randomly generated one probably didn't help. Sorry about that.

Lately I have been experiencing a long delay loading the web pages of the forum and even some times it does not load at all.

I thought it was a problem with my internet connection, but I tried from the computer at the office and still got the same result.

 

Am I the only one having this problem?

 

 

BTW: how can I start a new thread in this section? I

No, the forum's been slow for me as well over the past few days. I have no idea why, perhaps mars knows.

You can't. I don't know whose decision that was but I guess he or she wanted this forum to only have threads started by mods.

It seems YouTube videos aren't displaying (at least on my side). I'm using Firefox and Chrome.

 

Firefox blocks embedded YouTube videos because they're not "secure". Something to do with Psynews going entirely https:// I guess.

They can be unblocked though (from the left side of the address bar).

 

Yes that's because the [media] youtube links are rewritten with a static scheme (http) whereas the rest has become https. So browsers complain about "unsafe content".

There's 2 solutions:

- either update the content rewriting rules with https (I'll do what is possible) <= Edit: it was possible but I need to rebuild all the posts now ;)

- or ask your browser to display "unsafe content" on psynews (on Chrome, use the little shield on the right of the address bar).
