Skills Page Busted

I'm getting very sick of the Skills page almost never working.  From my profile I click Skills, from in game I click Skills, doesn't matter, take me to the same place.  I almost always (like 98% of the time) get the "Oh No!" page with the bad Juju's story instead of the skills page.  (https://picasaweb.google.com/109054538881014158473/Glitch#5742156816009018066)  Then, trying to fix it, I click the supplied "reload the page" link.  Usually to get a working Skills page takes between 2 and 10 reloads.  Sometimes it never works at all, or worse, it works, but then when I try to do anything with it I end up back at the Juju.  Let me tell you, I'm getting pretty annoyed at that little licorice Juju punk.  

To answer various questions before they are asked, I have an 8-way CPU, 12GB of ram, a 1.5GB video card, 30 megabit internet service (http://www.speedtest.net/result/1949193818.png - Speed Test I just did), use Chrome as my browser, and never have any other problems with Glitch at all.

  • Try using the Glitch self-test page
    http://www.glitch.com/help/test/

    You can send a bug report from the bottom of that page.

  • @WindBorn - I ran the test, all green, all low ping, all happy.  I think I must have done something to the skills page in a former life or something.

  • Similarly, the new skills page doesn't work on my blackberry bold 9900. The old one worked fine, until unlearning came out, and then it worked still, but the unlearning button was in the way.
    Now, though, it says I have 3 skills to learn but it only displays one half of one.
    I know you guys are busy, and a mobile version of the site would take time and resources that're most likely better spent on other things, but it would be awesome to have m.glitch.com. =)

  • Nerd of Epic- sending us a help case would have been awesome if this was super regular. I moved this to bugs, since this isn't really germane to general forum discussion. I could reproduce this pretty easily too, so we have it logged.

    (General note to anyone: A player getting a juju error would not be worth doing the self help test for. That error page is specifically an error on our part.)

  • Do you have any Chrome extensions or GreaseMonkey scripts loaded for doing Glitchy things?

    I've seen cases where Glitch webpages had their formats changed (as happened last week for the Skills page) and scripts that were targeting those pages behaved unpredictably afterwards and could crash or hang the pages.

  • No extensions.  I had them what feels like AGES ago now (before they replaced the location pages with the new awesome "you've been here" versions) and before the encyclopedia.  (And never any for skills page at all.)  The ones I had for locations aren't just "no longer enabled", they are flat out removed.

  • To reiterate from my earlier post- this isn't a browser or connection issue, this is definitely a Glitch issue. =)

  • Should be better. It was tied to a very large buddy list; where some calls to that were made on the skills page, which we took out.
