This sh–site isn't working in firefox.
The dropdowns won't work, the older profile videos won't load, I can't leave user comments, I can't add people as a friend, the comic descriptions won't work.
It was working before, so I don't know what's happened.

Change your name to crotchety NOW! lol!
I just tested ALL those things in firefox and not only do they work 100% perfectly, they all work fast too.

It's your own computer ;)

I'm using firefox and all those things still work for me? (The hover-over descriptions seem to go astray pretty often though.) The only problem I had with the browser was something about the ads was locking Firefox up, so I blocked them, and so far things are ok.

But they work on internet explorer, and they worked a few days ago.
So I don't know what's stopping it from working.
EDIT - It's working now, and I can neither confirm nor deny whether it had anything to do with adblock plus…

There you go, both Skool and I got it working in Firefox no worries. Maybe it's the ads like Skool suggests, or maybe just a computer/browser problem. Firefox had an update a day or two ago…

Try clearing you cache anyway and see if that does anything.

Yesh, it had something to do with ads.

i'm still waiting for someone to get back to me about my bug problem.
i still have three other comics under the "mycomics" drop down, still dont have my own.
still dont have my favorites under the "MyFavorites" drop down.
and i havent heard a word about ANY of it.
still get logged out, but not AS much, but more then what it used to before this happened.

i've written to tech support and to Volte and have posted on this forum hoping to hear something and i havent gotten ANYTHING back from ANYONE.it's been 4 DAYS.

i realy do like this site and i'd hate for it to become an inconvenience.
if anyone has any other ideas who i could contact or what i could do, please say SOMETHING.

PF, I made sure that volte knew about this the other day. At the time, he just didn't know why it was doing that. But he is aware. and I'm sure he'll fix it soon. He's not in the office on the weekend, though.

I'm pretty sure he's getting pummeled with PQ's, so don't take it personally if he hasn't responded yet.

As far as the problem goes, does your "My Account" take you to the right place? And as far as the Favs go, you can still pick them up in a comic page, right?

I'd check your browser settings for the log out problems. It's possible that browser settings may actually help everything.

Do you have more than one browser? What one are you using right now?

no one answered to my questions :
1. how do i view more of the updated comics?
2. how do i view more of the top comics?
3. how do i know the top comics updated?

thing i like:
comic description, its back from before, when the site was mostly white and yellow, so long ago. although now it can get you the wrong description

big image for comics

random comic collumn. i found a good comic thanks to that

things i don't like:
i have to wait for the correct comic description to pop-up to see what the comic name is
i see half the updated comic that i used to

Wouldn't using "Browse" answer all those questions for you?

I have the same problems as PF, so urm, yeah I can access My Account, and explore it pretty well, I had a problem updating my thumbnails but that's not really that important, I havn't yet used the fave system, so any bugs with it may be related to either before or after the change, dunno, ye'll have to ask PF for that, which you did, hrm, yeah.

I have no idea what you mean by Browser settings, I have very little actual Technical ability and I'm sure if I went tweaking settings and stuff I'd end up with a broked computer, I dunno if IE'll still work, all previous attempts have some up with a "Cannot find Server" thing, but right now I use BT Internet Browser, if that helps, yeah…

SpANG- allright, well thanks for checkin up on it! i rest a little easier knowing that he is aware of it.

as for "MyAccount" that does do everything that it's supposed to, so i'm doing everything through there. the drop menus are the only thing that's off. and i havent tried faving anything else so i'll give it a go.

as for the browser, i use Yahoo. i DID just change my provider a few weeks ago so that my be it. i'm realy not computer savy at all, so what would you reccomend i do with my settings?

Killersteak- no i havent. i realy dont know anything about cookies either.
but i've seen people mention it a few times in the thread, i should probably catch up on that then. any help you can give me on how to do it would be totaly cool.

i realise it'd kinda be fillin gup the topic with things that arent on topic, so if anyone wants lend a hand it's totaly cool if ya wanna PQ me or shoot me a link to look up er somethin.

again, thanks you guys.

EDIT:i tried faving and adding a friend and when i do, it already says that the comic or person is already added. it wont let me do it. i actualy think this was happening just a little before the site changed though.

Dude, totally worked out our problem, cos we both use Yahoo! Browser, or a variant thereof (me, BT Yahoo Browser) I installed Firefox, and it works near perfectly (the occasional yellow bar, that, with all things considered, I think I can live with) but otherwise, I don't get logged out, I have my comics under my comics and yeah, it's pretty ossom, so, Firefox dude.

Bad tester, no cookie.

What VERSIONS of firefox are you all using would be a more applicable thing to say here. Rather than just assume "Yeah, it works for me, everyone else is wrong", try collecting more evidence.

Hell, it STILL doesn't render right in Opera.

FUCK YES! WE'RE GOLDEN! i downloaded netscape and it's just fine![tried using firefox, but it was being a butt-hole about opening for some reason.]

but it was the browser! good fuckin catch, AccoSpoot!

[says in ID4 presindent voice.] "get online with the rest of the world…tell em we know how to take these sons of bitches down." cough! hack!hahaha!

I shouldn't have to change browser settings to make reading some forums not give me a headache.

I REPEAT: I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR OTHER PEOPLE'S SHITTY DESIGN CHOICES.

Yes to both.

The text isn't that small…

It's small enough to be annoying. And it's hard to see punctuation and such. I tend to use various types of punctuation to add emphasis to my posts, but now you can barely even see my commas and colons.

How hard can it possibly be to pump up the text size?

Question, is their any way to delete favorites now? I have some that haven't updated since JC was a PFC 8D and I really would like to drop them, my fav list is wayyyyy too long:evil:.

There doesn't seem to be one for now, no. sorry :/

Just curious. Do the people that are being venomous and RUDE think that their posts will be addressed quicker than others?

There is a thing called diplomacy. You may want to try it instead of acting like whiny jerks.

The text thing is noted. Nobody is going to fix it on Sunday. Do you have to keep yelling about it?

I think what's making them mad is that the old layout didn't have most of these issues.
And on top of that, Volte hasn't added new things for a while.
And this is unfinished and he replaced it with the old one.
I know they shouldn't be doing it, but I can kinda see why they'd be angry.

There were reasons for the early launch. Ones that most of us are unaware of. I know that it's hard to see the forest for the trees, but from what I have heard, components of the new layout are going to make bug fixing easier.

We are asking that you all be patient and hopefully we can come to some sort of compromise about everything. Really, this scenario is exactly like the launch in 2006.
