Unable to Enter the world......

Wondering around quite happily, went to enter Pretnash Thrash and a MangaPanda ad(?) pops up in place of preview picture. Then went to enter Kipacre and loading screen with Mangapanda picture freezes and am unable to get in world, Try reload but same problem. OMG and WTF!!

  • Were you switching between tabs? One of which had a MangaPanda ad(?) in it?

  • No, just had the one page open. Just tried a different browser (Firefox) and its not happening, but is still happening when I use Chrome.
    Thank goodness, will still be able to play, but strange happenings indeed...

  • Yeah. That's odd. Plus Manga Panda's site doesn't work, yet manga gets released with watermarks of it's logo.

  • Yay! I'm glad the game works in FF, at least :P

    You might want to submit a bug, using this link http://www.glitch.com/help/report/, so that TS can help figure out what went wrong in Chrome. (It doesn't matter which browser you report it in, since you can't submit an in-game bug right now.)

    Good luck!

  • Clear your history and cache.

  • Hi Snarkle, have just done that and can now get back in but flash bug thingy keeps popping up.
    Hi Millie, I will submit a bug report and see what they suggest.
    Thanks all for your comments and suggestions.

  • There was another user getting a banner type thing too. Perhaps their issue is similar (or, rather, perhaps the fix for their issue could help you as well)?

  • Whoa...hold on a sec.  This is a third party script that is serving advertisements inside the Glitch game system?  How is this okay relative to the ToS?

    I hope this is something benign and that I am wrong but (not to be alarmist) does anyone else see this as a very very slippery slope?

  • @foolbunny, I don't *think* this is related.

    @hotmud, this is not anything served through us inside the game. 

    @Thelonius None-  I would check what sort of 3d party scripts you have, then try to restart the browser in no script mode and see what happens. You can also isolate it to the profile you use by simply logging out of your normal account on your computer and login with a guest account, then start the browser, log in to the game and see what happens.

  • Hey there Kevbob, things are running fine now. Clearing my browsing data did the trick. Checked my 3rd party scripts but dont think they were the cause as I have been running them for ages and there have been no recent updates for them, have the same scripts running on firefox but the problem didn't pop up there. 
    Logged into the game through a guest account and that was working fine.
    Gave my system a good clean out and hopefully that has fixed the problem.
    Thanks for your reply and suggestions.

  • @kevbob thanks for the clarification, I was pretty sure this wasn't something TS was doing themselves. I was worried that an outside script was sneaking in unauthorized advertising.

    It looks like a good browser cleansing has made this go bye bye... Keep calm, and carry on.
