Flickering screen - is it just me?

Options
When I open up the chat forum main page it flickers every few seconds. It appears that the page is being refreshed. Everything from the News down jumps up slightly then almost immediately settles down for 3-5 seconds until it refreshes again. Has anyone noticed this? Can someone please stop it behaving this way!

    That doesn't happen for me.

    Is it just the chat forum it happens with for you? Are other sites ok?

    It is happening for a lot of us, and is not very nice on the eyes, if you stare at it to much :o

    Hopefully all will be right on the new boards. ;):)

    The Jerko-vision on the mainforum page seems to be related to the news banner. This probably was mean to flash but it periodically vanishes instead. This triggers a redrawing of the page and subsequent shift in all items under both IE6 and Firefox. The author of this error should not require weeks to rectify this self inflicted problem.

    The site has been fine otherwise but I understand the need for change that will expand the sites capability to respond in peak times of demand.
  • Yes, it's the news fader that does it. It's off now. :)
