Anyone still getting the random page errors?
Yup, had one about two hours ago when entering the forum through "New Posts". I didn't get a SearchID back, the URL remained as "...do=getnew". The page stayed blank, but the browser reported that it's finished loading. As always, fixable by a reload.
 
And how would you suggest that a game that is available on all platforms should be treated?



I change my opinion to only making a Games sub-forum
 
I haven't had more errors than the one I posted a few days ago.
 

Yes, that loads fine as well. As I wrote before, the issue only happens when the URL contains a subdirectory, for example with http://forums.finalgear.com/usercp/. Then the @import url("clientscript/vbulletin_css/style-86706997-00010.css"); is trying to load http://forums.finalgear.com/usercp/clientscript/vbulletin_css/style-86706997-00010.css - which does not exist :cry: adding one tiny slash there would make me a happy man.



PS: Here's a cap to illustrate my problem: http://img35.imageshack.**/img35/2623/usercp.png
You can see I'm loading the usercp, everything is taken from cache except for the CSS - URL /usercp/bla.css - and it fails.

Your browser fails then as this tag is a few lines above it:

HTML:
<base href="http://forums.finalgear.com/" />

I tested in Firefox and confirmed with Firebug that it properly loads the CSS file.

I figured out the error-- its actually a cron job scheduled by the forum for some stupid shit that the wiki does. The first client to request a page in 10minute intervals on the hour would get the errors; ie; 3:10, 3:20, 3:30...

I disabled the cron, so let's see if we get more of those page errors.
 
I got some funk when I tried to log on the forum 5 minutes or so ago. Started with just the "tweets" thing popping up while reading a thread when I was already logged in. Closed browser and was greeted with this when I came back:

Seems back to normal now.
 
Viper did an upgrade on the SEO options, and didn't mark the forums as closed while he did the upgrade. S'all good now.
 
Figured worst that'd happen is a PHP error for a split second while a file uploaded. I'll just turn off the forums next time to be safe. :)

Alright, neither disabling all add-ons nor updating to 3.5.4 solved it, so I just wrote my own fix.
 
Anyone else getting this?

Anyone else getting this?

It doesn't happen on all threads. But, I can't open some. I'm running Mozilla and I get...

Content Encoding Error

The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because it uses an invalid or unsupported form of compression.

Any ideas? I've tried on multiple computers and on my phone.

Finally I was able to get a screenshot of this happening.

I have no idea why this happens, but it does happens sometimes.

When I sometimes edit my post, instead of giving a button saying "Edit post" it says "Vote now".

This wasn't even in a thread that had a poll on it. For example this one was from the "Post a pic of yourself" thread.

As you can see it says "reason for editing" and then the button is "vote now".

Weird.

Edit: btw I'm using google chrome. And no this doesn't happen EVERYTIME i edit, but just sometimes.
