Can't post in the Shoutbox

[msittig]

Hi, I can't post in the Shoutbox. If I remember correctly, a couple months ago I could see the text input box, but now it's gone. It's the same story on the forum index page and on the Shoutbox's own page. Here's the latter:

Any ideas?

(Also, testing out my updated signature.)

No - sorry! I don't see any restrictions that would keep you from 'shouting', either on your account, or through the board software. Maybe Dan will have some ideas.

 

I hate when people say this - but, works fine for me.

 

In the meantime, try leaving a window open on the Shoutbox. See if the input box doesn't appear if you leave it there long enough. We've seen some internet latency (a slow response in some of the functionality) in a few cases.

As Randy pointed out is probably a speed latency issue with internet to and from China.

 

There are two ways to shout in the shout box.

Thanks Randy and Dan. Latency sounds like a likely culprit, now that you mention it. It's helpful to see screenshots of what I should be seeing, so I'll follow your advice and wait for them to appear.
