• Anything ‘published’ on the web is viewed as intellectual property and, regardless of whether it displays a copyright symbol or not, is therefore copyrighted by the originator. The only exception to this is if there is a “free and unrestricted reuse” statement associated with the work.

    In order to protect our members and TFL from possible litigation, all members must abide by the following new rules:

    1. Copying and pasting entire articles from another site to TFL is strictly prohibited. The same applies to articles from print or other media, and to posting photographs taken of copyrighted pages or other media.

    2. Copyright law provides for “fair use” of portions of a copyrighted work. You can copy no more than a SINGLE paragraph from the article to your post (3 or 4 sentences at most).

    3. You must provide a link to the article along with the name of website. For example: ww.xxx.yyy/zzz (The Lower Thumbsuck Daily News).

    4. You must provide, in your own words, a brief summary of the article AND your reasons for believing it will be of interest to TFL members. Failure to do so may result in the thread being closed or your post being deleted as a “cut and paste drive by.”

    5. Photographs and other images are also copyrighted. "Hotlinking" of images (so that it appears in your message) from other sites is also prohibited unless you own rights to the image. If you wish to share an image, provide a clickable link to it.

    Posts that do not follow these new guidelines will be altered or deleted by staff. Members who continue to violate this policy may lose their posting privileges at TFL.

    Thank you for your cooperation and your participation in TFL, the leading online forum for firearms enthusiasts.

New Development In Problems with Some Forums

I have just discovered something new in my problem with half the Forums. I just went to General Discussion and tried it again to see if I was somehow doing something wrong. I got the single topic per page display described in my previous post.
I discovered that on a single thread display page that of I open the single thread display and then click on "next thread" it comes up. By repeatedly clicking on "next thread" I can bring up all the threads that sould be diaplayed on that page but are not one at a time.
It looks like the data is all there but I am not getting the correct displays.
 
That result isn't too surprising. We know the data is there. You are accessing it in index order with that method, the display of the data is a completely different matter. I don't have an answer, but it sounds like your browser is sending an early and erroneous acknowledgement that it has received everything. This ack may be going to your browsers own drawing engine, not necessarily to the TFL server. Did you change anything having to do with the display colors on your system recently?
