BugZone: Nothing's perfect...

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

Maybe your email address has been used for spamming. Doesn't mean you are a spammer though.
Could be that someone on your mailing list has malware and had their mailing list stolen and is using those addresses to spam.

Yeah, our anti-spam software seems to flag Hotmail and Outlook accounts as spammy more often than any other emails.



We've reached out to them and they say it's working fine, but something is up.

That Cambo Quick ad in the top sure is reloading often. Is it broken or are you trying to boost impression numbers? I'm lucky I don't have epilepsy =@

LoL. It should reload just as often as the Bitcoin one. Refresh a hundred times and tell us the figures. Murray's Place is gone, as they're not taking any new tenants and turning it into a massage joint.

Just tried to send a PM to a single recipient, got a rather stupid "You tried to send a private message to too many recipients." error.
What's the voodoo incantation to be able to send a PM?

Ouch. I'd say try again, as you should have no issues sending a single message to a single member. If it happens again send us a screenshot of the error.

Used to happen to me. Close the session and start again is what worked if I remember.
I just sent you a PM to see if it was working and I guess you got my xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx message.
Try again.

Try again.
Last PM I received from anyone was on 27/10/2018.

Managed to send one from a "start new private browser" windiw. Maybe it was a cookies/cache glitch.

I can't see Facebook video/picture links on my laptop chrome browser application of CEO eg Explorer recently posted a FB video on the Oh You Internet thread but I just see a blank space.

Then again, when I look it up on my android phone with the chrome app the video shows up fine.

Any suggestions?

I hate to start with the basics, but maybe best to start by clearing your browser cache.

I just checked, and I can see it embedded on Chrome Mobile and Chrome Desktop, and as a link on TapaTalk, so that would lead me to believe it's an issue on your end. Try clearing your cache and see if it starts working, and let us know if not.
