is it just me??
has the afl website gone nuts?
i tried to put my tips in on friday and couldn't get on all day. i finally got on late friday night and missed tipping freo (who i normally tip to win). damn ... i would have got seven instead of six.
i just received my record and went to fill in the stats from sunday's game ... the stats page is full of zeros!!!
hey telstra ... not happy jan.

end rant.

I've been getting this:

AFL.COM.AU is currently unavailable.

We apologize for the inconvenience and will have the site back up shortly.

...for the last 2 days.

Voting is still not working for me. It keeps giving me the "Critical Error" message. A piece of utter @@@@!:mad:

I've also had difficulties with the site recently. It seems to be significantly slower than it used to be. Having problems trying to view BigPond video like Friday's tipoff etc. Sent them an email last week asking what was happening....still no reply. Seems to be crammed with too much junk.

AFL.com is one of the worst websites I have ever seen - it is hard to navigate, parts don't work, it's messy, it has too much stuff. It's atrocious!

I haven't been able to vote for the last 12 months. The whole site is just a right mess:mad:

All the evidence indicates they don't have one! They must, the development happens. Just not much else.

Maybe they have trouble translating the specs.

I tried F5 and Ctrl-F5 and it is still giving me the Critical Error message when trying to vote.:frown
Anybody fancy to develop a concpiracy theory for why it's still not working? Maybe some pathetic WCE supporter is messing it up!:D

AFL>COM>AU has got to be the worst website in the world.....

Far too much content and full of advertisemants that just take up all your bandwidth.

They need to kcap the amount of advertising they can put on the site relative to how fast it's operating... Now there's an idea for internet reform!
