anyone else getting this? Can you advise where you are seeing it? On the forum main page, in a topic, news page?

some are based on just impressions, others (majority) on clicks. But if you dont see any ads your sure not to view or click!!

Just spoke to the ad supplier and google ads although can show video does not play music unless you click it... If it happens again please let me know the brand and details of the video. A screenshot would be great!! Also ad blockers are very bad for BuzzJack!! They mean BuzzJack earns less from advertising which we need to pay for the server costs! No server, no BuzzJack!!!!!!

the ad plays a sound?? Thats very unusual and something I have never seen before. Can you give more details of the ad?

no reported issues with the site and generally its because of issues with your internet at that exact point in time. For example if you or someone else is downloading something at the same time you post it can mean the data does not get sent correctly or at all and leads to the issues you are experiencing. Many other reasons such as your ISP is having localised issues but keep me informed here if any further issues!!

so no other forum gives the same issue with long posts? Are you downloading anything at the same time as browsing? What about if you try an online speed test, what results are you getting back? Speed test: http://www.speedtest.net/

All, at 10:45pm Tuesday 29th May the power to the datacenter our server was hosted in went down. I had not been informed that any work was being done which might cause such an event as normally any failure is covered by a backup generator or redundant line. I only found out about BuzzJack being down at midday on Wednesday 30th and the power outage had corrupted our firewall and other server configs. This means simply logging in and restarting services was impossible and after multiple attempts i brought in a server tech to work on it today. We are back although I am speaking to the hosting company so I can be better informed of any critical work so at least I can prepare for such eventualities. Again apologies for the extended downtime which is very unusual for us and glad to be back :) Phil

fixed :D

oh, let me check at home - very strange as on my test account it is fine !

is this still happening? I tested on a test account and I do not see this behaviour.

can you past a screenshot and also the URL in the browser bar?

sure thats rhetorical, there needs to be a minimum level of training. maybe a certified course that they must go on aside from their license - again no idea what this would be. Do we even know what is provided to current tanker drivers? I for sure dont. BUT as ive said with Unite and history it is never about just training, they always push for salary, bonus and pension. They take the angle that the job is dangerous and so you need a risk premium like oil workers do etc. Minimum standards are easy to implement but i will be shocked if it doesnt come down to some kind of risk based premium/ bonus. And then the 45k becomes very relevant and what training/ qualifications you need for this. In the first post of this topic it says on average from one company they pay their drivers 45k, so some under, some over.

jerrycan is a terrible idea! Its capacity is over what you are allowed to keep in your house! They are trying to get people to exceed demand now and stockpile so a strike would be less effective... a woman in York burnt herself while decanting with the hob on - some people :P Dont the truck drivers earn 45k? What qualification and skills do you need to be a truck driver (i have no idea), but lets talk about the facts. Are they worth 45k a year, not sure if this is correct and what benefits they get?

well with all good intentions and people saying that it is for "health and safety" whenever UNITE is involved it always comes down to salary, bonus and pension. I will be extremely surprised if there is no push on salary, bonus and pension out of this. Happy to be wrong on this but they always start with health and safety and im sure the argument is convincing but looking through history this is only where it starts!

its doubtful many moved earnings around like this as many are employees and do not have this control. But lets say this is underestimated by a factor of 2, so there should be twice as much thats still 2bn which is very low still... and at the same time it is anti competitive with other places in Europe. Even at a low level have you ever seen the difference a good manager compared to a bad manager makes in a team? Now scale that up to decision makers such as CEO's and board executive members. If you dont compete on the same playing field for the worlds talent you will get the worse manager and industry across the board will suffer. Mansion tax is a seperate issue but not everyone living in a big house has masses of wealth. In my view income is a better means as well as stamp duty and making it more robust (like the govt plans) by introducing a tax on buying through an offshore company (15%)

its really not much.. i think it was £1bn which as a comparions to our estimated tax receipts this year of 575.5bn is tiny.. but on the other hand we lose a massive competitive advantage by having such a high rate. What your saying is right, giving more money to the rich can be seen as discriminating, but if this means setting up a business and running a business is more attractive in the UK than the US or somewhere else in Europe I think its the right thing to do.

but really its not how it really works... so for example the 50% is only on salary over 150k. Most people who "earn lots" have their own business and so pay corporation tax and dividend tax on anything over certain limits they take out of the company. 50% income tax is not paid by enough people to make it a big tax gain but it puts off the most valuable (subjective) people to an economy - these people are the CEO's, board members who can drive improvement and expand companies bringing with it new jobs. Also the fact that we have a low corporation tax level will hopefully drive more businesses to setup in the UK which in turn will bring revenue (taxed) and new employees (taxed and lower dole payments) so this incentive actually multiplies out into many different tax surpluses for the govt.

i think the problem which as a critic is never mentioned but as a government is a very important point is that you need to make Britain attractive to the entrepreneur and top (board level) management. The reduction of corporation tax and the 5% income tax cut are incentives for this. We are in a world economy and I dont believe its too hard to make the argument that if the UK's relative tax rate is higher than other countries then the UK will be a less attractive proposition. With taxes everyone should pay their fair share of tax although im not sure how you define poor. if its < 10k that will be covered in a couple of years.

where do you view the new posts? can you give the URL to me when you receive the above message also? What browser are you using?

can you give an example? If you paste the link here which is timing out in this way

Harry Rednapps flight was cancelled!! Has to be a distraction the fact hes in court all day and cant train the team

i can see Mourinho going to Chelsea, was reading about it just now and Abramovich bought him a £2mm Ferrari when he left so they are still on good terms! Or replace Mancini at Man City like he did at Inter a few years ago!!

quality draw, excellent last min save by the united keeper... pure class

its 3-2 now ;)

saw the movie, many say its not as good as the book or the subtitled movie but i thought it was good having not seen either of the aforementioned. The woman although at first glance looks off is very hot! Amazing body
