Blinking SSRG

When I'm in the community index or any subforum, I see some elements blinking.

Is it a problem in my video card, in my CPU or in the website?

Specs:

Spoiler

OS: Windows 8 64-bit

CPU: Quad-Core Intel Celeron N2920 1.86 ghz

RAM: 4GB

Video Card: Intel HD Graphics

VRAM: 1GB

Yeah I just had that issue too. Its probably just a problem on the site.

 

You two are the biggest idiots I know. You see blinking objects on screen, like you know, those lovely little monitors that happen to be in the forums that blink every few seconds....

 

EDIT: I almost made a king-sized jackass out of myself.  Anyways, what SuperEgg said.

EDIT 2: Isn't this supposed to be in the Suggestions & Feedback forum?

 

Seeing as you insist on being a complete fucking dickhead, allow me to point out that you sir are the fucking idiot.

As of last night, at least with the Chrome browser, some of the forum names, icons and descriptions on the front page are flashing on and off for reasons currently unknown. I have discussed it with Ordos, and he confirms that he didn't have the problem using Firefox. I'm currently in the process of trying to work out what is causing it, as it only happens on forums with topics currently unread.

So with that said, stop being a prick and shut the fuck up in future unless, you know, you actually know what the fuck you're talking about. Getting sick of some of the fucking attitudes around here lately.

 

Doesn't happen for me, even if I use Chrome.

 

No problems on Chrome or any other browser. Trash topic, pleeease.

 

I'm running a laptop with similar specs to StardustGear's (Including the ever so crappy Windows 8.) and I have no problems with Internet Explorer, Chrome, or Firefox.

 

I'm running Chrome on Windows 8 (yes, I actually use it and actually kinda like it; sue me), and I don't have this issue.

 

I was on the site till midnight last night, and I'm using it on my phone. I use Chrome for both my PC and Phone (I run a gaming PC with Windows 7 Pro 64-bit, and I use a Galaxy S4) and I haven't seen anything flashing.

 

I'm actually getting this issue.  So it may depend on your system.

All the descriptions, bars and etc are flashing repeatedly.  Funnily enough, this only happens when the monitors on the side is in the middle of it's static animation.  I'm using Chrome on Windows 8.1 64-bit.  it doesn't seem to happen on IE (latest).

EDIT:  Using Chrome on my Android phone (4.4.2), I do not get this issue.

 

What system do you use RHS? I personally use a Dell with a Quad Intel Core, and like I've said, I've had no issues.

Edit: Just found out I have a quad core. 

 

I just had my sister get on this site with her laptop (she has the exact same model as me and uses Chrome as her standard browser)

When she did, everything was flashing.

Wierd.

 

Considering I'm using Chrome, and I haven't had any issues that you are suggesting or what these two are referring to. I checked last night before posting to ensure that I wasn't just talking out of my ass, and I had no issues to speak of, so I was assuming the monitors are what they were referring to, as that is the only thing "flashing" I could see them referring to. So, I'll apologize then.


Now, as far as me "continuing to be a complete dickhead." You're gonna have to go into specifics, as the only dickish things I've done in the recent past was that post about DwhitetheGamer's question about the trash. Now, if you're referring to how I call people lazy dicks because they literally word for word ask for code and for people to do things for them, I guess that would seem dickish huh? Shame on me for telling people to do things themselves as opposed to asking people to handing them things on a silver platter.


And you're tired of the attitude on here? What do you expect when you get threads like this.

What kind of attitude do you expect people to have? Nice, lovey dovey, and ready to just answer to every whim? Come now, we've been down this road before. I'll admit this one was a bit harsh, alas posting at 3 am usually is not the best idea for when all my humor disappears.

 

Any consideration that the flashing issue may be a rendering bug on Chrome's part combined with special circumstances? I mean, it's a bit of a longshot, but it wouldn't be the first time I've heard of such an issue. May be version-related, hardware-related, and operating system-related, making this even harder to discern. Again, this isn't exactly a likely scenario, but may be something to consider while attempting to diagnose this.

Eggy, while your demeanor can, at times, be entertaining, you're also blunt and project an attitude of a dick at times. A bit of forethought before posting may do you some good. The general demeanor on the site is rather downtrodden on newcomers at times, and while some do deserve the thrashings they get, others get hammered harder than they should. Need to lighten up and stop expecting perfection or even high levels of competency from newcomers, and help try to make the site more welcoming.

Or at least, that's what I'm getting from my interpretation of Stephen's words.

And to add to the batch, no issues over here with Chrome 35.0.1916.153 on OS X 10.9.3 and Windows 7.

 

Do you think your over the top and dickish responses to those asking for shit to be done for them are any more welcome than the shit they post? You're just as fucking annoying as they are when you do it, it's like looking after a fucking kid. Many people have pointed out to them that they need to do things themselves and sometimes even give them a vague shove in the right direction. Then there's you, you're just a complete cunt to them and do fuck all but fuel arguments.

We've had this discussion before some time ago, and after that you seemed to have taken it on board. You still voiced the same opinions, but in a much more diplomatic fashion. As I said to you last time, if you had a problem with your boss in work, would you go up to him and try and be reasonable in order to get your point across, or just go and tell him he's a fucking cunt. Unless you had intentions of leaving your job anyway, you would be a bit more diplomatic in your approach or else you'd fine yourself unemployed. This situation is no different, if you continue to cause shitstorms just because you lack the intelligence to put an argument to someone without resorting to insults and aggression, then you will be out the door as quick as they will be.

The staff do discuss shit like this, and just because someone got through the Trialist phase, that doesn't mean that they can just do whatever afterwards and be immune from a ban. There are a couple of people here who were fine in the Trialist phase but are now the subject of discussion on account of the fact that they have rapidly deteriorated since their promote. Is that any of your business? Do we have to run it by you first? No, we don't. You're not staff, nor will you ever be, so you have no higher authority to treat people like they don't have the right to be here. We decide that, not you.

There are examples of members who started out badly yet have managed to turn themselves into respectable members, and I find that only happens through experience of their surroundings. I've seen a member or two recently join in with your little outbursts recently, and the funny part is they're no better than the people they are attacking. The problem is, they see your outbursts as being perfectly acceptable etiquette for these forums, which in turn makes the staff job even harder.

I said it last time and I'll say it now, if you don't want to be here and don't want to leave the staff to handle this place, you're quite welcome to fuck off. Nobody here is indispensable and it's about time people got that through there heads, yourself included.

To add to the topic, I haven't changed my OS in a long time, and I haven't updated Chrome for a while, yet this started last night. Not really finding much online about this issue, whether it be a bug with IPB, Chrome or Windows 8, or any combination of them. This issue could take a while to track down and fix, so bear with us. 

 

It could all well be Chrome, but I haven't updated it recently, nor Windows or any recent program. Yet, this has only happened with me since today. Seeming as Ordos and Stephen are talking about it, it's obvious that Ordos hasn't updated the board either (otherwise they'd know the problem by now), so it seems to be a mystery. Maybe a backdoor IPB or even Chrome update has caused this?

 

Question for StephenUK: When was the first incidence of this flashing reported (whether it be on your end or someone else's)?

 

Nobody had reported it at all until this topic, yet I first noticed it yesterday.
