  86. Stephen Richard says:

    My problem is a temporary jumping of the screen as I try to scroll down. This settles after 30 seconds or so

    1. SleepingDog says:

      @Stephen Richard, yes, good point, I’ve noticed this too. So it sometimes looks like, after I’ve posted a comment, that comment has not appeared on the page, but it has, it’s just further up (or down) the page from where the post-submission page jump has left me. So if you think your comment has disappeared, do a page-search on your username first, as it might have appeared out of sight.
