Both last night and tonight around about this time MN has slowed to a crawl for me. Threads take ages to open. Switching forums takes ages. Then when I do get to the next forum threads I have looked at before have reverted to blue but are still bookmarked when I eventually get them open.

We love you, we really do. But what are you doing?

We love you, we really do. But what are you doing?

Hello. We're not doing anything, honest! But the site's been phenomenally busy over the last few evenings - and that can slow things down a bit sometimes.

@fruitshootsandheavesupafurball

mmm now either tech is so incredibly busy he had to send Helen to answer

He's actually on holiday in the Caribbean with his Christmas bonus.

He got a Christmas bonus?

And what's wrong with my answer, fruitshoots? Tis the truth, you know..

Well, the colour thing shouldn't be happening, for sure.

Are you def looking at the thread title rather than the Topic title? Sorry if that sounds patronising but worth checking...

And are you using Classic or MN New?

Hi HopeEternal, if we move a thread from topic aaa to topic bbb then its URL - the address in the bar up top - changes e.g. from /Talk/aaa/13456-title to /Talk/bbb/13456-title.

Your browser keeps track of what URLs you've visited and shows them purple. When we move threads, they get a new URL and your browser will show the new URL in blue - because the new one will be an adress it has never visited. Once you look at the thread again in its new location, the link should go purple again.
