It's back again - Random thread opening

103 replies

TwoHeadedYellowBelliedHoleDig · 06/02/2020 20:25

Ages ago there was an issue where on the mobile site you would click on a thread title in Active and a random thread 3-5 threads up the list would open instead.

Now it's back, and just as irritating.

And I tried to start a thread earlier but it says it's been auto-deleted.

I'm here by accident again, can't get on to the thread I want

LaMarschallin · 13/02/2020 21:32

I've said on another "Site stuff" thread that I'm boycotting bloody Ape snacks because I've seen that thread so much when trying to open another.

Now, along with wretched Ape snacks, I'm also boycotting Equazen supplements and Toxic magazine.

Wouldn't have bought them anyway but I'm so fed up of seeing MN threads about them!

I'm sure this isn't an objective opinion, but the MN blue threads seem to come up erroneously far more than others, even when the thread I want seems miles away.

Just my paranoia, doubtless.

FFS,it's just taken me 4 attempts to click on this thread. Why does MN have so many of there annoying glitches if it's not this it's something else? No other sites I use seem to have issues quite so frequently.

Came on here to see if it's just me and my fat fingers. Same issue, click on thread and the one below or above or 3 below opens. It's been going on for at least a week now and it's maddening. Android mobile chrome.

endofthelinefinally · 16/02/2020 09:19

I thought it was something wrong with my phone! It is infuriating!

PrincessSloth · 16/02/2020 11:24

Chrome on a Huawei here too.... Driving me mad!!!!

UnalliterativeGeorge · 16/02/2020 22:36

Chrome on a Huawei here too and I'm giving up because it's too much hassle to read one thread.

Cocolapew · 18/02/2020 12:27

Here too, Android on Chrome. If I open the Ikea thread one more time I'm going to cry.

MrsPelligrinoPetrichor · 18/02/2020 12:36

MN is almost unusable ATM 🙄

LaMarschallin · 18/02/2020 12:39

Argh!

Touched this thread (having seen it reappear on Active Threads) and got a MN thread on half term activities with Klook, which is six threads up.

RoisinD · 19/02/2020 14:32

Same problem here. Samsung tablet

DippyAvocado · 22/02/2020 08:17

I thought this was my phone! Yes, it happens all the time with my android phone. I also can't seem to touch the Active/Threads etc buttons at the bottom of the screen.

LilyMumsnet · 22/02/2020 09:26

Hi all,

We are sorry. We're still looking into this one.
We know it's really frustrating, but appreciate the patience. Please do continue to bear with us whilst we work with tech to figure out what's going on here.

LilyMumsnet · 22/02/2020 09:26

Would anyone be able to send us a video of this happening?

MrsPelligrinoPetrichor · 22/02/2020 10:47

Serious question, how will a video help? Confused

MrsPelligrinoPetrichor · 22/02/2020 11:14

I just clicked on a thread about foundations and it took me to one about WhatsApp then I tried to click on this thread and it took me back to the WhatsApp one...

Willow2017 · 26/02/2020 11:12

Black blocks are back as are the adverts blocking half the OP.
Site keeps freezing up and crashing too.

soniamumsnet · 27/02/2020 11:39

Hi, just dropping in to ask whether this is only happening on 'Active' or does it also happen on other topics too please? Flowers

MrsPelligrinoPetrichor · 27/02/2020 11:42

All other topics, at any time of the day.

soniamumsnet · 27/02/2020 11:50

Thanks. Smile

SpeedofaSloth · 27/02/2020 11:52

Same, android mobile.

SpeedofaSloth · 27/02/2020 11:53

Also chrome on Huawei

FlissMumsnet · 27/02/2020 15:54

Hi SpeedofaSloth,

Thanks for the info - we'll pursue this asap as understand how frustrating it can be!

MrsPelligrinoPetrichor · 10/03/2020 10:17

Still happeningHmm

soniamumsnet · 10/03/2020 14:30

Hi @MrsPelligrinoPetrichor sorry to hear this is still happening.

Please can you let us know if this is only happening on 'Active' or does it also happen on other topics too please? Flowers
