Time Going Backwards?

[Buenchico]

Nobody else seems to have mentioned it, so I'll ask whether I was the only one to see AB pages from October 2013 (and nothing more recent) here for several minutes about half an hour ago?

Before someone tells me that Firefox must have been calling pages from its cache, I'll point out that:
(a) I've got 'never remember history' enabled ;
(b) I regularly run a security program which removes any remaining traces :
(c) Windows wasn't even installed on this computer until 13 months after those pages first appeared on AB ; and
(d) Firefox wasn't installed until a month after that!

So, was it just me?

It's happened quite a few times to me, Chris, with no apparent reason :(

Come on, mate, I answered this nearly 4 years ago.

Something else for the Ed to look into then, Jo ;-)

LOL @ Anax!

[scorpiojo]

Shall I send the screenshot to Ed, Chris?

It's odd that Prudie blamed her cat. I started see those old pages immediately after one of my feline friends had walked across my keyboard!

(I'll email the Ed).

'Scuse me canary, 20.04....

that happened to me yesterday. Just on my desktop; I was fine on an iPad.

It appeared to be some sort of homepage, with everything in what apeared to be a default serif font.

As I was away when le nouveau AB was launched, I wondered if it was just me; so I am glad in a wee way that I am not alone.

Has happened to me and no cat here.

There's also this....

Sorry Shoota, I missed that one.

yes, no felines were involved in the crafting of my previous post, Mamyalynne,

I think the new AB layout has gone back to the 90s lol
All looks very klunky.
The font is like a large print book imused to see in library many years ago.
It's a mish mash.
Reminds me of my early attempts at web page design back in the late 90s. Something that was quickly taken over by expert web designers on my behalf.

P.S. When will the ability to login in via Facebook be restored ?

[SIRandyraven]

No user experience enhancements.
Ability to edit posts.
Time line of edits and audit trail of changes.
Ability to insert objects such as pictures into posts.
You can't even insert a smiley graphic.
Sigh !
