I didn't know that. I think it used to still redirect traffic to amazon, though. I can't be sure as I've been cash strapped for the past few months and haven't been to the amazon page lately.

Anyway, I've updated my bookmark :s

Other people can see it, but the person who makes the post/edit can't. It's a pretty small thing, probably not even worth fixing.

For example you can probably see I edited this post: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost...&postcount=220

But for me it shows up without the "Last edited by" line.

Not sure if this has been mentined yet, but apparently .net redirects to .com now. So those of us who used .net to skirt our work filters are screwed.

Don't suppose that has a chance of being fixed at any point?

Sorry if this has been talked about already, posting from my phone here...

Edit: I see this is the way its going to be. Well this fucking sucks.

I feel your pain Bro, without .net my daily gaf browsing will basicly be restricted to some mobile browsing while taking a dump :(

Chopper · (07-30-2012, 08:44 AM)

Don't know if it's a mobile issue or not, but I'm getting a lot of "File not found" errors whilst browsing the site. Refreshing the page helps after around three attempts. Sometimes more.

It should be fixed.

Whoa, GAF died a bit. Had the "Page could not be displayed" error.

Also hmm... sudden slowdown.

It slowdown after a crash due the amount of incoming connections, it take a while to process all (5-10min) and be stable and fast again.

Ahh I see.

Kareha · 02:35 PM

I'm using Chrome on my iPod Touch and the mobile site redirects me to the desktop version. Switching to Mobile Safari though has no problems.

Edit: it's working again, weird.

Also clear cache.

My buddy is still seeing the infamous Rebirth screen. And I see neogaf.net is redirecting to .com now...is he just pretty much screwed as far as browsing at work now?

He said .com is blocked there and he has always used .net as a workaround but it's been showing that Rebirth screen for him ever since the server move.

I have no edit button at all, so I can't even try to edit. I've been using forums for over 12 years so yeah it's not that I don't know where the button is. :(

There's no edit button for me, unlike chaosblade's screenshot a few posts up, here is mine:

Never knew we had such a thing

This is timedog. It won't let me sign out of devolution's account on my iPod touch 2nd gen. I'm really scared.

Cleared cache and cookies and it logged me out, but the problem still persists when I try to log out.

Just tried it on my old 2nd gen iPod and it's logging out just fine. Which iOS version do you have installed and are you using the default browser?

Edit: I was able to replicate your issue by setting 'Accept Cookies' to 'Never', which prevents GAF from resetting your active cookie. Setting it to 'From Visited' should do the trick.

Parts of the screen keep blacking out, as if there were huge parts of the page covered with a spoiler tag.

It isn't happening on any of the other sites I go to, so it isn't just my computer.

OS? Browser? addons? can you post an screenshot when that happens?

I've also had this happen a few times (part of the screen obscured by a black bar, just like spoiler tags). Only happened on the mobile site and only on my iPhone.

Happens very rarely however, a page refresh always fixes it. Will remember to take a screenshot next time

Edit: Safari, iOs 5.1.1 (seen it happen ever since iOs 5), mobile site and only on the iPhone, never on the iPad

That always happens to me on my iPod too (mobile version, iOS5). Happened before the server move actually.

jph139 · (08-03-2012, 12:07 AM)

I've been getting giant... tartan-esque squares. As seen HERE. Just shows up on pages randomly, sometimes it goes away, sometimes I have to refresh, sometimes I have to leave...

Big-E · (08-03-2012, 04:20 AM)

This is weird but I am starting to see ads in images that people post. On the bottom of some images there are ads that can be closed by pressing the x near the top right corner of the banner. Is this because of the new platform or something? Never seen it before.

Ugh I had this on another forum today. Not on GAF though.

Ya that's what I have. Windows Defender hasn't found it.

It works for me and has worked constantly since search went up, in Chrome.

I found a fix. There was an unwanted extension in my Chrome called Fast Save. Got rid of it and the problem isn't happening.

Diprosalic · (08-03-2012, 04:04 PM)

i got a "this post is a duplicate blabla" for three straight posts now. it shows this message but the post goes through.

Phat Michael · (08-03-2012, 05:51 PM)

lots of problems since the migration on android (running galaxy s2). really hard to type anything in, the cursor dissappears or moves to the start of a sentence
if u hit enter the cursor dissappears and when you quote someone the problems are worse.

Htown · 07:06 PM

anybody having problems with ads randomly not appearing on pages?

nm, maybe it was just java being a dick?

i'm definitely not seeing any ads on the Romney/Jameson thread.

too many "porn" mentions, and google going "nope?"

I have seen this too: quite often only one of the two ads will appear for me. I had none appearing right before this post.

Sentry · (08-04-2012, 01:26 PM)

Not sure if this is related, and it's a pretty minor thing, but is anyone else having an issue with the favicon? It never shows up for me. But what's weird is it appears just fine for stage.neogaf;

Safari-only issue? Or me-only issue?

Anyway, other than that there's been no noticeable issues on my end. I literally couldn't tell there had been a difference if it weren't for this thread.

Stinkles · (08-04-2012, 01:47 PM)

Yesterday my avatar was being replaced by someone elses, but it's back to normal now. Mobile version.

Also I realize it's not a bug but if you post too quickly, in less than a minute, there's no error message, the post simply doesn't happen.

Like the hat? · 02:07 PM

I keep randomly getting a screen full of this. Have to F5 to get it to go away.

happens when I click on a link on GAF, then go back to GAF.

EDIT: noticed it on CheapAssGamer, too, so maybe it's a Chrome thing and not a GAF thing.

goodfella · (08-05-2012, 12:55 PM)

yeah I've stopped getting the icon thing as well on windows chrome. Not a big deal, but it's a thing.

Wait, what? What state was the affiliate account based in? Since Amazon has basically resigned themselves to the fact that they're going to have to collect tax everywhere have they reinstated it for NeoGAF's state?

I kept rotating between the NeoGAF and FelineDiabetes affiliate links this whole time not knowing the NeoGAF one was cancelled.
