Since I haven't had to know my password on Rivals for years, I can't get on the new Rivals Board and when they sent me an email to tell me what it was, it gave a net address to click on that doesn't exist..there has to be a few other people having the same problem. Isn't progress wonderful!!!!!!!!!!!!!
that forum is way behind its time. Like the codes for posting pictures and you have to use codes to skip lines in your post. they really need to upgrade.
I'm not a fan of rivals and all the ads but the codes of which you speak are standard HTML which is what you need to know to build webpages. This bastardized version of HTML used on php and some other message boards is the devil's spawn and confuses the uninitiated (or slightly initiated) when they move into the larger world of the WWW.
Well, I have tried about everything and I can't get on the Rivals board. I get the top of the page, where it says, welcome Jfisher, and the ads across the top of the page. I called Rivals and got a new password and it does the same thing....I get a message that says something like the site cannot be shown because it was redirected during processing from the server, none of the techs at Verizon ever heard of such a message.....I'm the first ever!!!
do you want me to ask one of the mods?
I've had a lot of problems with them at times because of the ads. The page will load until a specific ad shows up and then will just stop dead while it's waiting to access a server that controls the advertiser's content. Other ads will crash my browser and I've had that happen with both Firefox and IE. Any complaints about this will be patiently listened to and then ignored because the ads give them money. You may be stuck with us know-nothing loonies.
I don't mind being stuck with you guys but it's at the point that it I have to get an answer. No one seems to have ever heard of this warning..this is what it says....The connection was reset/ the connection to the server was reset while the page was loading. It also bothers me it only happens on the Tulsa Rivals board. It has to have something to do with the Rivals site, if you can ask the moderators about why it's happening I would appreciate it...if nothing else to eliminate one more possibly problem. Thank you. It's now gotten to be a quest, not just getting to a web site!!
