Are you using a Windows computer to post on forums - or an apple or Andoid tablet/phone.

If you are using Windows you may need to clear the cache to cure your log-in problem

Regarding the displaying of the the limerick thread.  The last post column on the home page displays the latest post in each section. 

When you joined the forum the latest post in the Word Games section was the limericks thread and has remained so until I revived the "First Word You Think Of" and the "Double Letters" threads" yesterday. We now have a situation where the latest of these threads shows up in the Word Games section - hence limericks was not shown nor will it be until it is the latest word game posted to. To access the Limericks post when not shown, click on the Word Games section under Fun and Games on the home page

Note that when you open the forum you can click on "New posts since last visit at the top right - it will then list the posts made after you last visited the forum. There is a snag - if you answer one of the threads listed here and then return to the home page the other posts will no longer be listed because you have already been presented with the list. 

I have a work around with Windows - I hold down the shift key when opening a post in the list which results in it opening in another tab on my Chrome browser. I answer the post then close the tab which re-displays the original home page and last post list. I can then open another post using the same method repeatedly until I have read or answered all the last posts listed.

Regarding you posting in the Forum Help and Hints section - you added to a previous old and unrelated thread instead of starting a new topic. An easy mistake so no need to flagellate yourself over it. Every forum is different and has a learning curve to climb. Some features here are better than the other forum you are on and some not as user friendly. There's not much that Malcolm can do about it because it is propriety software.  I recall I drove him crackers when I first joined with not being able to post hosted images. I have a bumper fun book in MS Word format where I store thousands of jokes and the url of images. On most forums I can copy the url from my Word Doc and paste it into the forum with no problem. We discovered after a number of fits of the vapours that url's in this forum have to be posted as plain text. Voila - problem resolved.

John...don't worry about it, any problems you may encounter on here are easily resolved, just ask and we will sort it one way or another

Gosh, I've just run into my alter ego, moi, myself, at the beginning of this thread when I was Sags... and I haven't even changed my frock after all these years
