I posted on the GR wall on FB yesterday, re all the problems and asking if GR was going to be doing anyhting


and I have just seen their response:-


Hi Scilly - I can absolutely understand your frustration and can only apologise. We have now halted all releases and the performance of the site is our main concern. We are hoping to have the issues totally rectified within the next 2 weeks. Unfortunately it is our members using the boards that are being most effected, mainly because you are on the site a lot and navigating from page to page experiencing more errors. Please please bear with us. We will write another technical update soon.

--------

don't hold your breath!!!

from my New Message Centre - Problems thread on the Suggestions Board.

Extracts from a response from Phil ... to read his full response ,see that thread.


I am sure that you don't want to hear me apologise again (and would rather that we just fix things), .............. And I am sorry that this is causing so much annoyance.

Firstly, the Message Centre re-development was a new piece of work to improve the features we currently offered.........

When it was decided to release, the functionality was working fine for the majority of users, but as we have found out, not for heavy users when running in a live environment.

We have deployed a number of changes today that will ensure that new emails are being recorded in a format that will allow easier tuning of the database. .............. We have also fixed a couple of bugs which should mean less errors being seen when sending emails. However, opening large mail boxes will still cause an issue for the next few days. ................. Depending on how long the tuning exercise goes, you may be presented with a "preparing messages" screen while it actively converts you existing messages to the new structure, although I am hoping that activity over the weekend will make this unnecessary. Hopefully by early next week, access to your messages should be much improved.

With regard to general performance/errors, we will be supported over the next week or so by the former Genes lead developer with one aim, to eradicate the "random" error situation that so many of you have experienced and has been occurring for so long.

I realise that I should have probably posted a daily update for those that have shown concern by posting on this thread (and others), so I intend to give a daily update on our progress over the next few days.

I genuinely apologise for ALL the inconvenience we have caused, and will do my utmost to keep you informed of progress.

Regards
Phil

At least they are still trying to sort things out.......sigh.


Have nearly completed my Christmas shopping now but OH remains a problem. He is very difficult to buy for as he reckons he doesn't want or need anything......... :-(


Have to admit that vouchers are very helpful for Goddaughters when you don't see them very often and you've no idea of their tastes. :-D


I'm still having probs on the other side. Seems as though a lot of people have been affected by the Chat problem......hope it is fixed soon as my daughter likes to keep in touch that way..... :-S

Cyns

My boys always got WHS vouchers from certain family members and they hated them! I did tell them they were lucky to get anything, but I could see their point...........it would have been like me getting a voucher for a wool shop

They said a general voucher like Meadowhall would have been better as they could spend it in about 400 shops

I have no idea what to get JB?

My wife asked me what I would like for Christmas.

I said that I would like a back scratcher.

She asked what type.

I said Asian, about 18 years old, preferably with a slim build.

My wife is no longer speaking to me.

Gee Report 1 Dec 2011 20:20

Yeah I wondered about the 'air' fryer.....does it whip the chips round until they are so dry they look like fried chips?

When someone invents fat free chips that taste like chips I'll pay anything :-D

Hi Dea,

Thank you for asking. She making good progress in fact today was the first time she had driven her car when she came to see us. She has quite a scar but it is no longer inflamed. She has had plenty to take her mind off her ailments as one of her dogs had a litter of 5 puppies last Thursday. They too are making good progress.
