Website Difficulties?

Anyone experiencing difficulties when responding to posts? After I have written 3or4 paragraphs, a tag line appears and says " There is an error with this website. It is being reloaded." Then everything I have written disappears and I have to start again. How frustrating. Is it just me?

      I've encountered the same issue. Now I compose any replies in an email as it will save the draft, and then I cut and paste. I've lost more than one typed reply before reverting to this method. And

      I had to give up using BP on safari on my iPad. Trying to type responses only to have it freeze up got too frustrating. I started using the app, but I don't like it because you can't see tickers, pr

      @CowgirlJane I am using firefox on a work computer.....so there's not telling what the real culprit is. I'm betting it's the computer and not the browser

    Third time posting this. I think it is the site since so many using different browsers are having same experience

    Same issues as before? Are you still using Safari on your iPad? Which iPad version and OS? I'd love to see if I can replicate your issues.

    Hey Everyone! The issue that the majority of you are reporting can be attributed to an iOS 8.x bug. While it appears to be intermittent for some and constant for others, we believe it to be the same bug.

    I believe the bug affects most browsers on iOS 8.x and not just Safari. Those of you using iPad's and iPhone's that are exhibiting the issue ("A problem occurred with this webpage so it was reloaded") may want to try upgrading to iOS 8.3 which was just released on Wednesday.

    If you don't mind, please do update all of us as to whether or not you are still experiencing the issue, or if it appears to be resolved or improved. One of our users who was experiencing this issue every couple of minutes has already upgraded to iOS 8.3 and has not had the issue since upgrading.

    Thanks everyone!

    I updated my iPad and iPhone and so far they seem to be responding better. Thank you for the information!
