It’s getting bad.. not even a few minutes I have to log back in.

Then it takes 3 or 4 tries to get back in

If you keep getting logged out of the forum but the site loads fine, it is a browser 'cookie'-issue.

To possibly solve this, do the following;
- Log out,
- Hit the 'Delete Cookies'-link on the bottom right of the forum, or click this link:
ucp.php?mode=delete_cookies
- Quit the browser
- Start browser
- Visit back to the forum: https://www.speed-talk.com/forum/
- Log back in, and remember to mark the "Keep me logged in" switch.

This *should* fix your issue.
You can also go to your browser's cookie settings, and manually delete (all) the Speed-Talk cookie(s).

Last 2 days it has been second by second whether I can move around ST or post or.....not.
It just timed out while hitting submit. I came back later and refreshed to get this to post.

Not being able to post pics or vids (or at all) could be related to your logged-in status.
If your browser stores the cookies wrong somehow, you might already be logged-out the moment you hit reply, and then the forum sees you as a Guest that tries to post pics or a video, which don't have permission to post.

As an alternative, you could download and use another webbrowser when visiting the forum.
Then you start out with a 'fresh pack' of cookies.

Another 2 days of this.
I have emptied all caches, tried different browsers to no avail.
I would like to think it is a problem on my end but this is the only forum where I have trouble.

Thanks for the update. The issue lies with the webserver, no doubt.
Since I can't replicate the issue on my end, it's hard to know if any changes in settings have any effect.

Same here. Still hit or miss as to whether I can even get website to pull up, let alone log on. And whether logged on or not, if I will be bumped off the website or not.

Took 5 tries to get on tonight. Each time, server timed out shortly after I got on site. Eventually managed to log on and make short post on my thread and stop by here.

Best regards,

Harry
