Please read the sticky post at the top of the Dubai forum which explains what is going on with the site connectivity... As said below our teams are working on everything they can to fix this 24 7. To the two ladies about the sign up issues below please email [email protected] and they will look into the sign ups for you and make any necessary adjustments for you. We are hoping this issue is resolved very, very soon and normal service returns as soon as possible. Thanks again for your patience, understanding and continued support, Warm regards, EW Admin

Also been trying to register my sister 2 times already and never got the email from admin saying that i can start using the website. Basically im not registered after 2 attempts. Yah, I recommended site to new arrival I met 3 weeks ago. She told me earlier she sent off registration details 2 weeks ago and despite emailing contact ID has heard nothing. Rude! Makes me not want to make any more recommendations.

Its so annoying! I have to do the whole security letters as well.. Im also using Mac and Firefox but i guess it has nothing to do with that. Also been trying to register my sister 2 times already and never got the email from admin saying that i can start using the website. Basically im not registered after 2 attempts. I hope that soon this all is going to be fixed coz it takes a long time to get to threads now!

But to even get to a thread in the first place you have to go through a palava if you haven't saved the link. Not sure why there can't be a 'recent forum threads' button on home page. 90% of site traffic must be for forum!

Easier way: Step 1: Sign in Step 2: Hit back button 1-2 times, until you are back at the thread you wanted to respond to. Step 3: Hit F5 to refresh page. Your page will be refreshed with you now signed in. Frustrating is the right word. As if the previous signin process wasn't onerous enough: Step 1: Sign in Step 2: Click on Dubai Step 3: Click on Forum Step 4: Click on Dubai AGAIN Step 5: Find the post you actually want to respond to all over again... Now we have Step 1A: Captcha screen. It was a joke before. Now I'm no longer laughing.

I've asked before for a "Click to go straight to recent threads" button on the home page but they don't see a need for it. It's irritating to go through so many things to get to the right forum. So grumpy today. :-P

And even after you go through the check process, sign in, read threads and post, two minutes later the pop up locks you out again. The check system is not only cumbersome but obviously faulty.

Hello all, As you know from our earlier posts it is being worked on and we are just as frustrated as you! We have fed back already about the captcha and it is being worked on. If you are getting access denied message try to change your browser. Once again we thank you for your patience and understanding and if we could wave a magic wand to fix this we would! We are so sorry this is happening and doing all we can 24 7 to get access back to normal. Warm regards, EW Admin

I'm starting to get REALLY annoyed. Have to re-enter those codes over and over again. Can't you save the 'safe' IP-addresses to avoid having to re-enter? Imagine the companies who paid money to advertise on this site. Whoosh.. There goes a big part of your exposure.
