Images/Pages not showing up/loading?
Tue Nov 30, 2004 6:00 pm
OK, for some weird reason I can't get mystery island page to show up - at all. My jetsam's in training, I need to get him out and start a new course.
Went to the games room, none of the images for the games in a particular section are showing up. I did click the Tombola link, got to that page, but no images. Tried going to mystery island from the second Tombola page, but nothing. The blue page loading bar is getting like half and then just stops dead.
Yes, my temporary cache is cleared.

Sorry everconfused, I went and checked for you...all of that is showing up fine on my end...mystery island, training school, games....
Not sure where your problem lies. Our new banner monster ad-zilla slowing you down maybe?

Val, thanks.
Maybe. I know the new ad IS slowing my dial up down even more than the old ones. This is so frustrating.
I keep thinking, this is the last change, I can work around it/get used to it, etc. But this time? Maybe it really is time to leave.

You aren't going anywhere, missy!! I won't let you!
As a last resort, we get you an ad-blocker. But don't you even contemplate quitting! We need you around. You'd be missed too much!

Val, still nothing trying to get mystery island page to load.
This is basically what I get (cropped and size reduced)
Do you know the url for the school? It's one of the few things I don't have in my favorites!
Thank you for your very kind words
I guess I'm just feeling frustrated and almost punished for a) having dial up, thus a slower connection; and b) being disabled and having these banners do such awful things to my head.
I wish the one player opponents were available. Even if it was just the balthazar. I need something to beat up on, but don't feel like my pet getting poisoned again

URL for training school is here:

Hope that works for you.
And trust me, it isn't just you. I have the 1337-swedish-broadband and that page is pulling up slow for me too.
Maybe it's just the revamped-more-detailed maps....?
And don't worry, I think we all share your frustration. ^_^ (HUG) *pat pat*

It worked! Thank you thank you thank you! I'm putting that url in my favs, just in case.
Thanks for your patience and encouragement too. I'm sorry I'm being such a whiney baby right now.

Glad it worked.
And you're not being whiney, so don't sweat it.

I'm having the same problem with certain pages... I'm not sure why. I've got a cable modem, and it isn't usually this slow. I'm not sure if it's because of the new big banner, since flash files don't seem to slow my internet speed that much.

I was having this problem last night between 7 and 8 nst. It was happening with a couple different pages - the news and my inventory. Nothing would load. A little while later, everything was back to normal. I think everything has been screwed up lately...probably going back as far as the birthday sidebar a couple weeks ago. Ever since then, things all over aren't going the way they used to.
