Support NeoGAF

[Sho Nuff]

I've been seeing this screen hundreds of times over the last couple months, and I'm sick of it.

I used to think it was just my PC and I suck, but then it started popping up on my work machine, on my friends' machines, I saw people complaining about it on gamefaqs, etc. Apparently this only occurs under IE, so like, there's only a few bilion people potentially affected by it. I find myself not bothering to click 1up links anymore knowing that it's going to fuck up.

To anyone who says "Use Firefox instead": Shut up.

Site loads fine for me in Maxthon.

 

[sprsk]

fiiiiiiiiiiiiireeeeeeeeeefooooooooooooooooooxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

 

[SantaC]

they should redesign their site alltoghether. But seriously, who uses internet explorer today?

 

[Pimpbaa]

Use Firefox instead

 

[Striek]

To anyone who says "Use Firefox instead": Shut up.

At least use Opera then

 

[May16]

Ew, Internet Explorer. Here, allow me to help you:
http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/

http://opera.com/

 

[Ryudo]

Happens to me too. Firefox can go suck my toilet brush.

 

[Amir0x]

I AGREE WITH SHO. It keeps giving me the same error everytime: "Error: Page failed to load all data" or something like that. It's terrible. I have to load Firefox or Opera whenever I want to view 1up now, and the site was already poorly designed and like the worst 56k-unfriendly site of all time

 

[ParkPace]

Quick question:

If you are going to use IE, why are you using IE and not one of the IE-based derivatives, like Maxthon or Avant Browser?

 

[SantaC]

when was the last time IE6 was updated and not security fixes? Wasn't it like 3 years ago?

 

[Ryudo]

But seriously, who uses internet explorer today?

Seriously ? Think 90% and over.

 

[Sho Nuff]

Because I'm a lazy fuck and Firefox acts weird on my machine.

 

[fse]

works here on IE6.

 

[Macam]

Seriously ? Think 90% and over.

It's actually under 90%. For the record.

 

[SantaC]

Seriously ? Think 90% and over.

ok that's the casual users then

 

[Ryudo]

We have to use IE for a lot of web applications. Cant say we have had any security issues either, but then again we dont visit "underground" sites.

Web standards is a whole other argument. IE sucks, but it is usefull especially with activex.

 

[Jonnyram]

I never have that problem, but I am ALLERGIC TO INTELLITXT so get that shit off the site plzkthx.

 

[TekunoRobby]

I used to get that error 24/7, especially when I navigated to it from a GameTab link. Now it works perfectly. Whatever you guys did, thanks!

 

[C- Warrior]

Yeah, 1up should fix another 'thing' too >.> ;p

And firefox wins again

 

[Jiggy]

As far as I can tell, it's related to which flash ad banner is running at the time. If I refresh and get the same one, I'll get the error again; if I refresh and get a new ad, often it'll work.

This is unlike, say, AdvancedMN, a site that I have yet to be able to access in about three months...

 

[daegan]

That stupid site WILL NOT LET ME confirm my registration. ><

 

[Polari]

1UP's site is absolute rubbish, to the point where I don't visit it unless I find an article linked in a forum thread.

It's a shame too, considering the content is usually quite decent.

[Unison]

This happened to me for like a year, solid. Couldn't access it from home, but could from work.

Then suddenly it started working like 2 weeks ago.

 

[Orin GA]

Firefox is great, unless you are using it to surf the web.

NICE

HI FIVES ALL AROUND

 

[ohamsie]

I wish 1up would go back to its old design, the new one is too much of a mess to navigate through

 

[Electrii]

Happens to me too, 90% of the times I try to view an article.

 

[Syb]

I get this exact error too.

Woo Hoo!

 

[neo2046]

I am using IE
I have the same problem as Sho
I always need to refresh the page

and it seems it is the time for me to use firefox

Much as I'd love to sit here and bitch about 1Up's layout, I can't think of a single gaming website that has a half decent layout. Going to game websites is like talking to someone that's always screaming. They're all relatively slow to load, cluttered, a mess to navigate, and feature intrusive ads and/or self-promotion....which is why I use RSS almost exclusively. RSS is your friend!

Try again, lol i cant believe you would use that site to support your opinion.

 

[Macam]

Mostly because I figured ImageShack would crash at some point.

Is there a way for this forum to generate an RSS feed of new topic titles? There are a lot of widgets in the konfabulator gallery that provide updates on new threads for specific forums (a lot of are sports web sites) but they're probably using different forum software.
