I had that issue until late this morning.

Wow I really didn't expect this to be resolved so quickly, if at all. Appreciate it, guys, thanks a lot.

Avatar of LittlePuffling

Well, last time we had an issue with the site it took over 4 months for things to settle down. It's all relative, ya know? 😁

Avatar of LittlePuffling

Ah c'mon, credit where credit's due. Given the small number of people affected, the scale of this whole operation and all the support it requires, 24 hours is quite impressive.

Working good here too, thanks !

Quickly?!!! Over 24 hours!! No explanation!!

It took time to figure out what was actually going on. As far as I'm aware, it only impacted version 15.x of the browser, and maybe only some point versions and had something to do with the fact the browser didn't support some piece of code with a default value and required for it to be explicitly set.

It may have been resolved more quickly if it hadn't coincided with the DDoS attack and some changes made to mitigate it. It wasn't clear initially if those changes or a code update was the cause.

Will there be compensation?

If you were impacted you can contact support and see what might be possible.

Why not treat yourselves to a real Safari.Africa has still got some.interesting game reserves.Fresh air space good scenery.

From an environment.of crouching.over a computer and stressing.over a lot.of technical glitches over what are at the end of the day only games you will derive a lot more benefit from the great outdoors.

But elephants???? No, never elephants! Feel free to take down some hyenas - they're vile creatures!

G-d created all creatures Including hyenas pegasu. See Genesis.

Two game wardens whom I know have.the necessary equipment to.give.interlopers and poachers suitable advice in the game reserve.

My first time posting a subject on chess.com since I registered in 2014. Look what happens.

That's what I'm talking about - I'm a carnivore but I don't like hunting for sport or for things we don't need, such as the items @Witkrag mentioned.
