this is a bug. I don't know if there is already a thread on this issue, but lets keep all of the discussion about this bug here, since it's on the first page ;)
This has been happening to me also for the last 24 hours or so. It only seem to be the shared game specific boards, and I can view them fine on gamefaqs. This is quite annoying because I chose gamespot specifically for the badges, private forums, and various other features. If I only wanted the game boards I would have stayed on gamefaqs. Please fix this.
Yeah, the same forum glitch is happining to me... Is anyone else experinceing viedo glitehes too? Whenever I click on a viedo review from the site it keeps saying attemeting to reconnect. I know that its not my internet beacuse it's working on everything else. Please Help [:
Yeah, it's happening on my front too. Oh well, these main boards will serve as temporary housing for my internet surfing.
[UPDATE] Oh and I just tried getting into the Crackdown forums using Internet Explorer and they worked fine. So I am guessing this is just a Firefox issue with the site right now from what happened to me.
You can get around this by using the Gamefaqs forums,They still seem to be working.JDUB_x
Appreciate the input, but I think most of us knew this already. It's not the shared boards that are broken, it's how gamespot connects/interacts with them that seems to be busted.
In relation to the mention earlier about the shared boards working in IE, I figured I would check it out as well since I use Firefox normally too, and it still returns blank pages for me so I don't think it's a browser issue.
I get the blank white page when using FireFox. I just tried going to the Motorstorm forum, which is where I found this bug, using Internet Explorer. It worked fine. It seems to only happens with FireFox. Oh well, I guess I'll have to use interent explorer for now. I hate IE.
Uggh! I hope they fix it soon. I can't even get it with IE. Actually that's probably a blessing in disguise coz I hate that browser so much that having to be forced to use it would be a crime against humanity.
this used to happen to me but if i pressed page back and reloaded the page it worked,now if i try and look at my preivious posts it gives me the blank page everytime,and earlier nothing loaded for me on gamespot except the homepage and the user videos section and to even get there i had to use the videoclip links and i couldnt search,just watch from the same catagory as the link clip,if i tried changing the section I'd get just the top of the screen where it has the adds and shows your username/pic and messages,which also dont load
Been wondering what happened for hours. Surfed on Firefox. Blank page. All kinds of re-load requests (reload button, back and forward, pressing enter on the address bar, clearing the cache and try again, etc), still a blank page. Naturally I tried it on IE. Worked fine.
Interesting, I just tried it in FireFox as well. It works in Fx, but not in Opera or IE under Windows Vista. I'll try it in XP in a minute and see if it's any different.
I guess I will join this club, I can't see squat while i'm ON MY ACCOUNT. I'll try to look at any gamespot forum and complete whitness. I'm on Internet Explorer but this only accours while on my account....so yea...it is annoying.
