This is driving me nuts!!

What is with the Side bar?
It pushes everything to the left, making it hard to read the thread titles.
Also I am having trouble with the quick reply box.
If I just post "thanks", it tells me my message is too short.

CRAP!! WTH is wrong with this site? It just told me the same thing for this post.

Are you referring to this?



Click the "Hide this sidebar" button. If it doesnt stay hidden once you go to a new page, clear your cookies and cache then try again.

It does go away when I click that but when I go back to the list of contests, it'd there again..

BTW I did clear my cookies and cache but it didn't help.

Also, when I reply in this thread I have to copy and paste my reply before I submit because it vanishes when I submit the first time.

What browser are you using? Can you try this and see if it works:

1) Logout from RFD
2) Clear browser cookies and cache
3) Exit browser completely
4) Open browser, Login and Click on "Hide your sidebar" button again.

[valeriey]

Done. Then I clicked on contests and the side bar was back again.

I had to copy and paste this several times to get it to post.
It keeps disappearing.

I am using IE7 and Google Chrome and it is the same on both.

Adblock + Firefox

Can't get that what might be the reason behind it. Anyway check it through Firefox and see what happens.

I don't have FF
