Neither is mine, but just on gather. We have a EPIDEMIC going!

Half the time mine will not work in Gather, either. It has been happening to me for a couple days now. Use the drop down arrow at the back button. That's the only way it will work for me.

I don't know, I tried mine a few times when I first joined and it didn't work, so I just keep going back to MyGather and starting over from there, most times. It's a pain.

Me too. What I do is hit Refresh and then Back. It sometimes works.

OOPs! Look back at my articles and you will find me saying that my computer isn't working. That is the point to which I was referring. (I didn't want to end that last sentence with a prepostion, but it read funny." My ack button doesn't work on Gather either. We need an investigative report.

An open letter to the JACKASS at Gather who came up with this one: now you've got the only social networking site in the freakin' internet with a disabled back browser, for reasons known only to God and understood only by other idiots with IT skills and not social ones. I have kind words for the fool who approved this, too: things like this are the reason you can't get a job anywhere else.

Works fine with Firefox. Firefox is by far the better browser for many reasons, gather being the least of them. I suggest everyone switch.

Mine too - it is driving me MAD! This is a clunky site at the best of times, but at the moment, it is infuriating!

I think it happens when you have two Gather windows open, and you go to another article and there is no back or forward. You will work it out, I am sure.
