Tech Problem - 

Post#1 » by JohnVancouver » Sun Nov 7, 2010 4:58 pm

RGM pages often - reliably - freeze on me. I generally have multiple RGM pages open. No other website does this

any idea what the problem is, does it happen to you?

Unfortunately it's the overload of sigs, RealGM freezes on me all the time too.

I'm brand new to this whole sports team forum thing. The freezing is driving me crazy. Any other good Suns boards out there that don't have this problem?

I like this forum. Definitely has personality. Can't decide if I'm gonna bolt.

Honestly, i rarely have a freezing issue. I use the latest version of Firefox (with Ad Block Pro). I usually have at least 10-12 tabs open (about 8-10 are RealGM tabs). Most of the freezing for me happens late at night (if it happens at all), and all i have to do is either refresh the page, or hit the stop button after a page is loaded.

I'm using Chrome because Firefox had too many issues with sites I use all the time. When RGM freezes on me, I can't reload the page - all functions are frozen too. Just have to go somewhere else for a bit until it unchokes

thanks for clearing up what it is, though - I thought it was just me

I have never had an issue with RealGM freezing and I use somewhat of a prehistoric piece of machinery.

Oh yeah and if you don't wish to have sigs showing you can disable them in you user options. ;)

The only time RealGM ever freezes for me is when I'm at work. I'm assuming that's because IE6 (work browser) is horrible, although it could be a myriad of other things from this computer. I receive mad certificate errors when I use Firefox at work, and I'm too lazy to resolve them manually. Windows 7 image coming in December at work, I'm counting the days! I'm hoping for an IE8 update....I think IE9 is a pipe-dream, I'm not sure when its full release is.....

Anyway, you guys hear that Facebook is releasing its own browser? Dear lord....People are going to attack that thing like crazy.
