Whenever I go into one of the forums, I have to refresh it to see the new posts, and whenever I go into a thread, I have to refresh it to do the same.

Why?

o_O What error are you getting?

Ah. I see my baby is finally beginning to manifest.


Oops, did I say that? Nevermind.

Weird. I have no idea what would cause that.

Your ISP is probably routing port 80 traffic through a transparent proxy server in order to reduce its bandwidth. Proxy servers often have aggressive caching routines and a manual refresh may be required in order to force it to retrieve updated data.

I have encountered no problems today, and I've been here from three different computers and connections.

Hmmm...let's try that again. Your ISP is feeding you previously saved copies of SD.net to save on bandwidth, and it'll only give you up to date copies when you hit "refresh". This way the ISP doesn't have to keep downloading fresh copies of SD.net all the time and saves on bandwidth.

Can I fix it? Or is it one of those problems that only goes away when you judiciously apply a broadsword?

Use a different ISP or just get used to hitting "refresh".

Gah. Shifting ISPs is not an option. Oddly enough, this does not happen on other forums and didn't happen until today.

Anime movie, near-hentai. There is a woman in it who gets pregnant during the movie, then becomes very very powerful (supernatural like) as her pregnancy begins to show. There's this assassin who is (I think, I havent seen it in a while) trying to stop this treaty from being signed between our world and the Beast world, which exists in another dimension. The woman is from this Beast world and is partnered with a human as bodyguards for this short guy who is important to the treaty. The human and the short guy were fighting the assassin and getting beat down badly. Then the woman comes in, starts showing and hands the assassin his ass.

Hence why I mentioned it when you said "Ah. I see my baby is finally beginning to manifest. "

Huh. Never heard of it, but I see why you thought of it.
