Osc, it is probably just one of those glitches..... and Mick is unlikely to be able to do much else but report it.

If it is a scripting problem in the software, and phpBB forums are full of them, the guys at phpBB will eventually get round to fixing it. If it is the database server or the database itself, and unless Mick is hosting them himself, again there is probably not much he can do but report the problem.

I might be wrong, but from what I know of SQL they are the most likely problems.

Yep, it seems to be a server problem of some sort, nothing we can do anything about, just as facebook seemed to have some kind of glitch earlier today, one of those things

Frank is spot on I'm afraid, nothing we can do about it Osc, sorry xx
