Can Mumsnet please address the ongoing site freezing issue?

MN can you please stop this site from freezing!!!! I have already had it multiple times this morning and it is only 06.37 now.

This has been going on for months with many complaining about it. MUMSNET IS THE ONLY SITE THIS HAPPENS ON!!!

As others have done, I have cleared this, that, the other. Nothing changes. I can go a few days without the freezing, but then it starts up again.

Please sort this out!

And can you, for the love of God get rid of the Amazon advert that arrests the screen if you do so much as breathe in the same room as a page it’s on?

Yesterday it entirely disabled Safari on my phone. I had to turn the whole phone off and on again twice before functionality was restored. And I’m still being lurched into Amazon about twenty times a day.

Please Make It Stop.

I can’t use Mumsnet webpage at all any more as it just won’t load on my iPhone. I had to resort to the app. Also agree with the Amazon advert - it’s so annoying!

Agree, i had to stop using the website, now using app but don’t get any notifications if people reply to me.

And the way it randomly reloads back to the top of a thread. It’s so bloody awful.

One can be half way down a page and ‘weeeeeeeeee!’(although it is not fun), back to the top you go. The only way I can read threads is by bookmarking every post you read so that when you then hit ‘refresh’ after the reload, you’ve at least a chance of getting near to where you were.

I too have done all the clearing of cache, different browsers etc etc etc.

It doesn’t happen on any other site.

It’s shite MN. Shite.

I'm sure it would be helpful to Mumsnet if you gave more details about your phone and browser to help them look into this. I use chrome on an Android phone and get none of the problems you describe.

Safari on iPhone using the app.

@TulipsMakeMeHappy

I have done just that, as have others. It still happens and nothing gets done.
Laptop and tablet, both using chrome.

Why is it only mumsnet that has this issue? If it is do to with whichever browser I use, it would be happening on other sites too --- it doesn't. It is only mumsnet. This has gone on for months, it isn't a recent issue.

i was also using safari on iphone. Before i switched to the app, it would often make my phone heat up. Like others, it was only mumsnet, never any other site.
