For some reason i can't watch threads anymore. When i click "watch thread", the button at the top just runs and runs. Is there a limit on how many threads can be watched? Or anyone have a suggestion?
thanks

I'm calling the LPSG Admin team to help you with this. @Mr. LPSG @LPSG Simon or @LPSG Richard will help you with this.

They usually reply very quickly but it can sometimes take up to 24 hours. Thank you for your patience!

Hello, are you able to unwatch threads? https://www.lpsg.com/watched/threads

If you are, are you able to rewatch the thread or does the same issue occur?

To confirm, that issue is after you click 'watch thread', LPSG will forever load but never finish the watching thread/request for email notification etc?

Correct. The same thing happens if i click unwatch threads. I tried that thinking i could unwatch and then rewatch the thread. I'm using Chrome browser if that makes any difference.

FYI, i'm getting the same issue if I click an image. If i click an image, LPSG will forever load but never get there. Now if i click the attachment link, it opens quickly.

I will look into if we can remove your watched threads manually

For the image issue, can you post an example URL here? or link to the image? Also, what kind of anti-virus or adblockers(if at all) are you using?

I'm not nearly concerned about the image thing. Just thought i would mention it since it was similar. Also i'm not nearly concerned about removing my watched threads as I am with adding to the list.

I am using avast anti-virus and no adblockers.

I'm sure there are more important things for you to deal with, being a moderator on a gaming site myself.

What is really odd, is that i tried using a different browser, firefox, and i was able to remove and add watched threads. I may have a setting messed up in chrome. It was working fine a week or so ago, so chrome may have changed something that i don't know about.

I was thinking with the issues you had, and the fact attachments still worked, that it was some conflict.. but if it works on another browser it might be best to try and clear your cookies and see if that helps. i have no idea why but that's usually a good first step at fixing chrome lol

i have found issues like this are good to follow up, in case the situation happens again etc etc ) cool to know you are a moderator!

if you watch another thread in FF, will it show up in chrome?

Yes it does. I don't really like firefox, but if i see a thread that i want to watch since this started, i start up firefox and click follow, then i watch it in chrome. A bit troublesome, but it works. I can't believe that i haven't tried clearing the cache since that is the first thing we tell players in the game i moderate. LOL

I'll try that tomorrow and let you know if it works.

i hate doing it too lol, but since you seem of an advanced nature, have LPSG open on only one chrome browser, press f12 and go to application, go to cookies in the storage area and then clear the specific 'LPSG entry

this should clear the cookies for just LPSG and leave everything else < 3

Well, I cleared the cookies for just LPSG. Now i can't sign into LPSG on chrome at all. When i opened up the site, then clicked login, it kept running and running just like the watch threads issue but never opened the login page so i'm writing this through firefox. This is just really strange as i never had this issue until over the weekend. :(

we are getting into an uninstalling and reinstalling of chrome it seems.. the cookie erase shouldn't prevent a login at all, and i don't see how it would prevent the modal pop.. are you able to access this: Log in | LPSG ?

Another question would be what happens if you click 'sign up' using chrome to look at lpsg? does that take you to https://www.lpsg.com/registration ?

Giving you an update. I still can't click things. Screenshot

If you look at the screenshot, there's a small rectangular box that pops up with the white line moving back and forth. This happens when i click on an image, the watch thread button, if i click on a user's pic, or click on a user's image. Now if i click the link beside the image, it takes me to the picture, but clicking on the image gives me moving white line in the black rectangular box. Everything works fine in Torch, however the numerous popups keep me away from that. But i do go there for some items. I've reloaded chrome. I've cleaned the cache and cookies numerous times. Have no idea what to try next.

Are you still having login issues?

I wonder if we should try turning off the automatic 'show images' function and see if that does anything here.. I think if it improves matters we can narrow down possible reasons for all this
