    Thanks George, sorting the spam issues would be good. I'll try to get others to provide more information on specifics via this thread.

    George I couldn't log in using Firefox or Edge, so I don't think the issue was browser or device specific based on what other users were reporting. It seems to now have been fixed.

    I think the main issue affecting the forum is that there is no monitoring or obvious way to report failures. So far it was rendered unusable by spam attacks for a week or so, then it fell over for a whole weekend on what was the opening weekend of pro race season and finally a lot of people have not been able to log in for a day and a half. I do understand that in the world of IT things go wrong, but it would be nice if there was a way of reporting that things have gone wrong, so that they can be fixed.

    Finally, it would be good to understand if BR values the forums or whether they are essentially a cost which it is looking to wind down. The number of active users seems to drop with each software upgrade, so it is hard to understand the reason for the upgrade unless it is to save costs.

    Hi George,

    When I couldn't log in the problem was universal - I could't log in on any device (phone, tablet, laptop) and it didn't work on Chrome or Edge. Now it works on all of them for me.

    Hi all –

    I've had an update from the team. The recent login issues were also caused by the security update, but have since been resolved.

    Thanks,

    George

    @George_Scott, they are at it again.

    The above may be fact, or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting.
    I am not sure. You have no chance.
