You may not be the only person having this problem.
Could anybody who is getting an error message when you try to start a new thread please post the details here?
Tell us what error message you get (if any), what happens etc. Also, please include what operating system and browser you are using.

Thank you for the heads up.
Cheers.
KilljoyKlown said:My Firefox is 3.2, and yes it has happened on more than one thread. Before it started happening I posted over a dozen new topics without any problem using IE9. Today I ran a clean up program then tried again, and still had the problem.
I did search on HTTP 500 and the most common answer is that it is a server problem at your end. However, I seem to be the only one affected by this problem. Was wondering if you have any logs that might give us a clue to narrow down the cause?
The one thing I did in the post that first screwed up was to try an add 5 links using the add link button, which I had never tried before. But now I get the error with no links at all.
Plazma Inferno! said:Do you get this error on every thread you try to open?
It's possible that browser is the cause. We're not optimised for IE9, and Firefox 4 is still in Beta, so I suggest using older browsers.
Tell me if this fixes the issue.

KilljoyKlown said:Plazma Inferno, I'm not sure who to talk to about this problem I'm having, But maybe you can be of some help.
On 4/12/11 I started getting an (HTTP 500 error) whenever I tried to post a new topic or thread. The information I looked up on this error code suggest it's a problem on your end. I can still post to other existing topics and I notice that others are still able to open new topics.
It's kind of annoying to have a new topic and not be able to post it. Plus it's hard for me to believe that this is the first time anyone's had this problem before, so someone should be able to help fairly soon I hope.
I have been using IE9 and I tried using the latest Firefox browser both had the same error code.
Thank you
If you're absolutely adamant about posting your thread you could PM it to me in it's entirety and I will post it for you. I might even be able to do it under your name but that will require some testing out of my own.
Ok, it works. If you want I can post a new thread under your name anywhere you want.
You'll just have to provide the OP.
Well I was thinking that, since we're both here now, it could be a temp solution until the matter is solved.
This offer stands for anyone else too of course. I will need your Thread title, OP, and which subforum you want it posted in. Oh and a recent post in Free Thoughts or About the members. But don't start posting crap so you can have me post your thread, if necessary I'll make a temporary thread in FT where people can post their thread OP's.
I have just posted a new thread in Computer science. This is getting weirder...
I don't want to post a test thread in each subcategory, but whatever it takes...
