Title: Sight malfunctioning!!
Post by: unionrdr on March 09, 2018, 03:58:59 PM
And I'm quite certain I know who's responsible. I can't change my profile pic, try to post replies or with pics and the whole site locks up, except for moving page up/down or X'ing out in the tab. This has happened repeatedly today, after he got yelled at for berating me. Then the put-downs about the Facebook airgun group we were on. It was after that that all this trouble started. Including certain computer functions. And this is a new computer that was fine before ll this BS. I've really had it this time. I want this fixed and the behind the scenes stuff stopped or there's going to be trouble.

Leonard, call me naïve but who are you directing these threats at? I assure you nobody here on staff is jacking with you or your computer. Not sure exactly what is causing your issues but it has absolutely nothing to do with your account on GTA Forums. We will be glad to try and help though, if we can.

If I have problems (and sometimes I do) I'll try a different browser.  I normally use Firefox but in times of distress I may use Internet Explorer.

Some have good luck with Chrome.  I'm not one of those - I don't use that one.

Sometimes you may have inadvertently changed a setting somewhere along the line.  I've done that, too.

It may take some experimentation on your part.  Computers may be stupid but they're insidious.

Perhaps you could provide a link to the post where you were berated! Checked your recent posts and could not find it.

Sounds like you might have software hiccup.  First try a reboot. If that don't work, switch/update browsers.  Should be a simple fix.

While I had absolutley no knowledge of this until now...
That statement makes me chuckle.
Dude... what could you possibly do... it's the internet not a tavern.

Probably too many cups of coffee!

I've had a few minor issues with GTA but they were easily fixed by clearing my cookies and cache after a few weeks of forgetting they needed to be and no problems since i did all that.

Last I knew, the only people on GTA with the authority to mess with a profile are the admins and unless you've been doing some rule breaking or your GTA name happens to be Booger, they generally leave you alone and you always get a pm from them first before they actually take drastic measures.

Leonard,

You most likely picked up some malware on your computer.  Clean it up and reset your browser and you should be fine.
