I'm still experiencing some "blank topics" when I try to view them...
Is anyone else still experiencing this phenomenon from time to time...?

I think it may have to do with some people may be viewing/posting in the Discussion Areas outside of the main site. They may be using a direct link to the Discussion Areas instead of accessing from the main menu link...

Can anyone verify if they are using the Discussion Areas outside of the main site...?
The URL will look like this if you are accessing the Discussion Areas directly:
http://soda-machines.com/discussions/

Instead of the proper access:
http://soda-machines.com/index.php?option=com_smf&Itemid=29

My six cents,

Jim,
I can think of two threads I'm still having problems with,
 In Other coin-op., My Wurlitzer 2600, I can read page 3, but pages 1 and 2 come up blank. 
In General Chit Chat, The Chicago show recap thread.
I do know I  read the threads, the blank page never occurs on an unread thread.
I use Firefox 3.xx at home, but the same threads are blank if I try to read them with IE 6 at work, so it doesn't seem  browser or machine specific.

 I always hit the main url first, (http://soda-machines.com/) then   access the discussion boards from the Discussion link on the main index section

Hope this is some help

Through the link you posted above, the first post I hit after that was blank.

I always try to use the main site for the forums, but when I hit a problem, I resort to a different entrance and don't have trouble..

I got the blank page this morning.
Posted on the thread "Classified Ads new rule needed" -
Came back and tried to read the subsequent posts and get a blank page.
It seems to me that it happens when a thread expands to page 2.

so when the blank pages occur, it's to a thread the reader previously posted in.  I can see reqad the  air reel thread, and  want ad discussion thread, but I haven't posted a comment in either.  i do know the Wurly 2600 thread and the chicago show thread I posted in and can't see...

I just clicked on Pat P.'s post on the thread "Classified Ads new rule needed" -
I could read his post, but page 1 is blank for me still.

On a good day I can read 60% of the posts. The rest come up with banner ads and that is it. Some posts will be visible for awhile and then be gone. Does not seem to be related to the post going to page two here. Can't see any trend. Some posts can't see from the get-go others disappear later.  Very strange.

Would somebody be so kind as to PM me the replies to "Hey Dave, Happy Birthday". I started the thread and never could see any of the responses. Thanks!

Jim, Understand this is huge drain on your time and thanks for all you do!!
Nothing is ever perfect :-)
