Is it? I just got online and onto Neopets, and the page went blank with every click. Restocking is going to be a nightmare!!!!!

Usually it's not quite as bad as this (usually it's every 5-10 pages, and nothing will load -- it'll be completely blank). But ever since soon after the LDP ended, this blank page issue has been plaguing the site, and I find it extremely annoying. That type of issue is something that should have been fixed long ago.
Months? Well, in that case, I suppose that would be something to find irksome. Technical issues like that should be addressed and not allowed to continue for over a week--at max, when a site is as popular as Neopets.
I was under the impression it was something that was just happening; but then again, I just got back into Neopets again very recently and haven't been experiencing this for a month like others.

It's been happening to me all evening. A lot of people are posting about it on the premium boards right now so I'm guessing it's happening to everyone.

Agrees with Cranberry. This has been going on for far too long. Actually, tonight when I just went to the site I got a blank page for the front page. That was a new one!
But the blank pages/page cannot be found/server resetting page message/the weird error messages on the top of blank pages has been happening, along with the at least once a day all-encompassing uber lag.

I absolutely DESPISE the all-omniscent blank pages that load with the URL at the top. You end up having to refresh more than you can browse the darn site. And it has been literally going on for months...they annoy me to death! I'll do anything to get rid of them!

I hadn't really noticed it until I signed off my main acct (which has premium) and updated a bit on another. It took forever to get anything done because the pages kept going white. >.<

These seem to be pretty on-and-off. I started getting them, then went awhile without them, then they came back, then they left again. I wonder what's up?
Also, we might not all be talking about the same thing here. This thread started being about pages with the sidebar and banner ad, but nothing else. I think Cranberry et al. are talking about a completely blank page, which does happen occasionally (but not that much).

Yeah, there are two separate issues:
1. Pages where the sidebar/banner ad/sometimes the page's black bolded title load but nothing else does, which is a recent development and is happening every page or two, sometimes two or three times in a row.
2. Completely blank pages (white on Firefox, "server cannot be found" page on IE), which have been occurring every day for literally months, sometimes with some frequency (every 5-10 page loads or so). They're not as disruptive as those half-loaded pages, but they still make playing Neoquest, restocking, and sending game scores annoying. They seem to occur more during busy times of day, though I have gotten them in the middle of the Neo-night as well.

Me too, its like one in ten pages
Wed Mar 15, 2006 12:27 pm
One in ten? Lucky. I'm trying to restock right now and it's literally one in two. I just had to refresh three times in a row to get a non-blank page. I keep missing stuff because of it (but luckily the blanks are plaguing everyone else, too, so stuff is sitting around a bit longer).

I'm getting it too. it's like 1 in 3 pages for me. it's getting really inefficient to play neo in firefox. but IE seems to be perfect
Wed Mar 15, 2006 1:28 pm
I didn't even think to try IE:P Thought I'd sleep it off as the earlier suggestion mentions, but to no avail.

I've been getting the completely blank pages off and on for a while now but the whole blank page with just a sidebar just started for me this morning.

...Wow.
I was going to say I have no idea what you guys are talking about, but I switched to the LDP sidebar theme yesterday, and now, half my pages won't load, period.
I was using the Winter Sidebar before, and while it was still a bit of an issue, it wasn't nearly as bad as it's gotten in the past 12 hours or so.
