Computers Anyone else having trouble with Chiefsplanet?

Chief Roundup · 05-31-2013, 10:09 AM

I have been getting a lot of "chiefsplanet is not responding would you like to recover" messages. I have also been having trouble with everytime I come here I get a deal telling me that my flash needs updated to view the content. This is the only website that I am having either or any issues, trouble with.

Anyone else? Any ideas what is going on. I have checked to make sure all of my stuff is updated. It is only on ChiefsPlanet that I have these things happen.

I haven't had those issues, but sometimes it takes an eternity to load the page or to post a message. Not very often though.

I have noticed that it does take a long period of time sometimes for those common simple tasks as well.
I figure that sometimes that is due to simple volume of people. Other times it will lead to that message that I need to recover the tab because the website is not responding.

Occasional problems with posting a message. Lots of time.

I was wondering if there could be a picture posted on here that keeps telling me I need to update my flash to view the content on this website. Of course that is malware.

Most likely it's malware. Flash shouldn't prompt you unless you actually try and play a video. Flash player isn't needed to view a picture. If you needed Flash player for a video, you would likely see the video box with a notice in the middle of the box saying Plug-in needed or something to that effect.

Never ever install Flash or anything else just because a box pops up telling you to. Always go directly to the manufacturers webpage to update your software. Never follow a popup link unless you're absolutely positively certain it's legit.

What browser are you using?

When I click on this section called "DC" its full of psychotic assholes. Can we fix that?

No problems other than what that ding dong -King- posted in the "Teicher: Chiefs’ offense looks sloppy in practice" thread

Everyone once in a great while I just refresh it and no problems. I also have that problem in DC.

I use Internet Explorer. It is updated.
Why is it that I only get this when I come to this website? I don't get that when I go to any other website.

Chief Roundup · 05-31-2013, 11:06 AM

I use Microsoft Security Essentials and Malware Bytes. Both are updated and find nothing on my computer.

I think AustinChief and/or DaFace are aware of the occasional slow loading of pages here. I think I saw some posts about it a few weeks back. At that point there was no known reason for the issue.
