None of my Bookmarks (BigFooty Forum) work anymore, had to come in via Google search

Edit: Seems this is the new way in (AFL - The Australian Football League)

I am not sure why - do you get an error message? Have you tried different browsers? My bookmarks work fine.

The URLs are different to get to the same page, (Bookmark: bigfooty.com/forum) doesn't work now - New URL that works (bigfooty.com/forum/forums/afl-the-australian-football-league.5/)

No error messages, it just keeps continually searching.
Same result on Explorer.

I just copied and pasted BigFooty.com/forum into my phone browser and it worked fine. Nobody else has reported this.

I suspect there's an issue on your system. Not sure what it could be, others might have suggestions.

Thanks for the replies, it's no big deal as I can get in via the new URL, just thought I would mention it.

My mistake Chief my old Bookmarks were bigfooty.com/forum/ (forward slash on the end) so try that in your browser.

the text in the link doesn't matter that much. Sounds like an issue on your end, are you using a VPN?

Virtual Private Network, via a provider like ProtonVPN or similar.

No nothing like that Chief.

Anyway I just took the last ( / ) out of the bookmarks and it works fine now.

Seem to be some weird shit going on with some add on site, where if try to scroll down to read a page of thread it stops me and the add seems to flash in some weird form.
Both times it happened in last 10 minutes been when some HSBC bank add at top of page so might be some weird format of that add in itself.
Not sure if it site related or just my browser but suspect it that add one way or the other.

Thanks I will sort it out.
