Moved on from Bad Request

Recommended Posts

I have an old MacBook pro with an unsupported version of Safari and I can no longer access the main Pink Un site but if I "Google" the "Pink Un" and then click directly on the Main Discussion" link I can access this message board. If I use Firefox I can access the main Pink Un site but if I try to access this Message Board I get "Bad Request", again if I Google the "Pink Un" and click directly on the "Main Discussion" link I can access this message board.............

I had this on Chrome on PC. Cleared cookies on the site and it worked again, then I signed in again and it’s back to broken again.

I can no longer access the message board from my phone unless I’m connected to my WiFi. Had this for several months. Anyone else? No problems with any other site.

I use Chrome an up to date android phone. I got the 404 error for the first time yesterday. I was told to clear the cache of Chrome and Google Play Services and it is fine at the moment.

I'm still getting it on any of my devices across different web browsers which is weird and suggests there's an issue at their end.

It's easier enough to clear data but it's a pain in 'arris.

Very few things in life annoy me , Capt but the misconception that Cockney rhyming slang for Bum is Harris (or ‘Arris) as you put it , is one of them. 
 

“Aris” is one of the best Slangs ever. It derives from the original Àrse , which is Bottle and Glass . It then moved on to Aristotle which was rhyming for Bottle . So your Àrse became Bottle which then became Aris (totle) 

Your welcome 😂

I still can't access it via Chrome or Edge. Like others have said, I clear the cache and all cookies etc, can load the page but then when I log in, Bad Request.

I can only get on using Samsung Internet on my phone. I won't download another browser just because Archant are incompetent.

Now getting a blank page, get’s worst by the day. This has taken me two hours!

Archant's IT department is not doing well at all. The fact you have separate logins for one side of the pinkun for subscriptions, separate logins for the forum, and their system for linking play store subscriptions to old accounts in the app just crashes is really shoddy. And that's ignoring the fact that they can't configure their web servers properly.

Now that is a fun fact.

As you were kind enough to notice , here is another . You may occasionally hear your Bum referred to as your “April”
 

This a derivation of Aris. 
 

So in fact it is Àrse (Bottle and Glass) , to Aris (Aristotle) to April (April in Paris) 

 

Del Boy uses April a few times. 
 

See the things you learn on here?

Blimey, that's a pretty insane number of degrees of separation building up there!

Has anyone connections with Archant because this has been going on for months, maybe even years. Now and again I dip into TWTD and have never had this problem

In the past we could flag things to Pete.

You could try reporting your post (little flag, top right) and asking the Pink Un guys to pass it on to IT Support.

Incidentally, it's Newsquest now, rather than Archant.

First time ive been able to log in for a week,  have been able to read but to even do that I have to clear my cookies daily, which is ridiculous & too much hassle, thats on my phone using chrome.

Guess now noone is looking after it or sorting the problems, its destined at some stage to be binned by Newsquest?
