Yes I know, long overdue but more to come I am sure.

PROBLEM - is the site a bit flaky when posting reviews? I followed the link and it just keeps crashing. I finally managed to write a review yesterday and the page crashed as I hit 'post review' so I lost it. I have rewritten it in Word so I can cut and paste it but can't get the page to work at all.

Is it me or the site??

Advice needed.

Sounds more like your device perhaps. Word can hog a computer’s resources but never heard of UKP crashing when posting a review.

It has happened to me a couple of times so I always write reviews in w word doc and then cut/paste into the review.
I don't think it is the site as Marm pointed out.
In my case it was using a touch keyboard on a tablet that was the undoing of me, I hate the bloody things.
Keep posting the reviews ! Cheers

the site is very user friendly, personally i dont know how to post short links but by magic the site does it automatically for me ( i think )

If you're using a tablet or a mobile phone, try using a Desktop computer instead. The wording "crashing" sounds like your browser stop working due it lack of RAM or it might be issues with your connectivity as well.

I prep my reviews in note pad. Think I started doing that after a review posting crashed on me.

You can also use the old notepad review as a bit of a layout template for future ones
