In the last few months, I've very often had difficulty reading and/or making discussion entries. When I click on the button, nothing happens - and yet all the other links on the page work perfectly well. Often, if I come back later in the day, the problem goes away.

If I access ProZ using my tablet, a thin grey line appears down the right-hand side of the screen when this happens.

Has anyone else had this issue?

I have had this, too Jun 20, 2013

Same as you described. I click the button, but nothing happens. As if the whole discussion area froze.

Me too Jun 20, 2013

I thought I was being blocked or "modded", but it may just be a browser issue, as I'm pretty lax about updating.

I'm very sorry you're having this issue Jun 20, 2013

I am very sorry to hear that you're having this issue.

If you could answer a few quick questions, so that I may better diagnose this issue, I would appreciate it.

What browser are you using? What operating system are you using? And when the problem occurs, does your mouse still display a loading icon?

I use Firefox and Windows XP, but I've had the same problem in Explorer and Silk. The mouse doesn't display a loading icon - the button gets bigger and then smaller again when you click it (what do you call that?)

My configuration Jun 21, 2013

I use Firefox 21.0 on Windows 7.
The mouse cursor does not change, no loading icon, just the usual arrow. I click on the button, I can see the button action, but no effect whatsoever.

Thanks in advance.
