Bizarre Error

DJ Eebs

Well, this is an odd one.

When I click on links to some threads (Like the Great Fan Made boxart thread in G&T, for example), my browser refuses to load the page. I've tried opening the page in a new tab or window as well, and I only get a blank page.

Anyone have any idea what's causing this? I've also had problems where the screen stays at the Submit Post screen once I hit submit instead of going to the "Your message has been received screen."

Are you getting any sort of error or is it just a blank screen?

I restarted firefox, and it seems to have fixed the problem

And I was getting no screen whatsoever. No error or anything. It was just nothing going through period.

Perhaps a Squid (caching) error, server-side.

I get loading errors all the time on the forums (I'm also using Firefox). Clearing the cache always fixes the problem for me. We should sticky this info, or put it in AFK or something.

If someone wants to make a cool thread with basic forum troubleshooting (F5 -> Ctrl+F5 -> Cache -> Restart) that would be awesome.

Accumulated forum knowledge or stickied here?

Here. No one goes into AFK when they have issues with the forums

I almost put that down and then I thought, "Now what kind of example would I be setting for the children?"

Good thing I don't give a damn about the children, eh?
