Poll of the Day > Every single post takes 2 attempts now

(+) Yeah! (+)

This used to happen occasionally when the site would glitch out, but I've noticed the past day or so, literally every single time I try to post, the page will just kinda "hang", then I copy my text, reload the page (shocker! my post doesn't appear), paste it in, hit post message again, and then the 2nd time it works.
Every single time.
Anyone else having this problem?

It's been happening for a month for me.

When it hangs, if I press "preview message" it forces it to post.

Making topics is worse since there's this pop up window now and it doesn't let me do the preview message trick. Usually I just give up and forget about making the topic.

Same for me.

This has been happening all over the internet for me for the past month or so.

Haven't had a problem here, but I've had problems doing pretty much anything on Reddit for about a month now.

Might be worth mentioning what browsers the people who are having trouble have, because it might be browser-related.

I was curious if it was the site or me.

Because like 2 days for the first time in probably 2 years, I updated my Firefox. Like, my copy was so old Mozilla didn't even recognize it anymore and I had to download an entirely new copy.

I finally caved b/c multiple sites wouldn't load w/ my Firefox. Ironically, GFAQs worked fine and is weird now, while as reddit not working (and now it does) was the final straw that pushed me to update.
So I wondered if updating made this site stop working properly or if the timing was a coincidence...

EDIT: Also, this post went thru 1st try. Maybe it's been fixed...

It's not really hanging, it's just taking several minutes to post sometimes
