I access the site via the home page. |

I don't go to those two threads |

Perhaps occasional posters on the 'day to day threads' can't be arsed to complain about error messages Ken? :-) I only responded to Ann in support, otherwise I wouldn't have bothered to comment on the issue, |

It is probably that the people on the large threads are consistently on them (i.e. among the best customers. And it is definitely not only them. Admin admitted they had had complaints but were unable to replicate the problem. |

I agree Island. I don't contribute to any very large threads and it is when trying to access the site that I get the error message - every single time! I now just click on the Genes logo on the error message and usually get on after one or two attempts at that. |

How do you get on to the site Island? If you go via the home page you shouldn't have any problem, if you go via My Threads or General Chat or Quizes, it may be more likely that you will have trouble depending on how many threads you have contributed to and how active they are. If you have ever contributed to one of the large threads (Nutlodge and Childhood Memories) then you may be affected. |

I don't contribute to "the two large active threads on page one of the General Chat board" - whichever they are - Ken. In fact I rarely post these days but have been getting the error message for the first time in the last couple of months. |

The T&Cs contain this line "We may remove all or any part of the non-Core Services (such as message boards) from the Genes Reunited Service, either on a temporary or permanent basis, without liability to make a refund to you." |

That might be a good idea, Allan! |

Perhaps we could threaten a class action against the operators, after all there is an implied contract between them and their customers to provide a service that is fit for use. |

I did actually have a halfway intelligent conversation with Liam who asked techie type questions that were not stereotyped, but then the next time I was back to one of the females with the usual rubbish about clearing cache and I should log in on the uk account. It was when Irepliec to tell her I had been on the N Z site for 15 years with no problem until the last year or so that I had the mail returned. Fair do they have tried to deliver many times so far. |

I am also fed up of the error messages and the replies you get from support - it's NOT my end it is theirs. |

I think there's only one person responsible for GR ...... and not always the same person either! |

I do find it ironic that an e mail I sent as part of a continuing conversation with support regarding the error messages has not been able to be delivered because it keeps timing out!!! :-D :-D |
