Today, it has been shown that the rogue glitch is caused by the deletion of the e-mail address in the "Email" slot on the Control Panel. This allows a user to solve the rogue glitch quicker than in the past. However, I have noticed a higher frequency of these glitches, including 2 occurrences on me. However, I think we could solve the glitch if we could determine the cause of the e-mail deletion. In this thread, I would like ideas on the cause and later, the solution.

Nope. Never cleared my email and I got it twice today. I've had it 6 times and I have never cleared my email.

It's combining with other glitches. At first, you kept your Armatar and could post. Then you couldn't post. Then you couldn't comment. Then your Armatar changes to a starry shield. Now, your About gets muffed up and you can't even log in.

That and any other wrong changes to the user profile are considered the rogue glitch.

Now, your About gets muffed up and you can't even log in.


The first part is a form of the rogue glitch. The second part indicates a combination with the password glitch.

Then you couldn't post. Then you couldn't comment.


Those are separate glitches that appear to have tied with the rogue glitch.

Nope. Never cleared my email and I got it twice today. I've had it 6 times and I have never cleared my email.


I'm not talking about the user clearing the e-mail. I'm talking about the glitch clearing the e-mail, in which case the user has to re-enter the e-mail.

never cleared my Email either and now my friends list is empty!
i've had only one other aspect of the rogue glitch and that was all my comments being anonymous, however i recently saw a game who's comments were anonymous, so i think it's extending. well that and sometimes the delete/mark as spam symbols aren't on my profile, that part of it goes on and off

Even though I experienced the glitch twice already, once in minor form and once in it's full effect, I never had my email cleared by the glitch, nor did I have you re-enter it to 'un-glitch' myself on either occasion Patrick... I don't know whether you're right about this. =/

I got that information from Ernie15, so perhaps you should talk to him about e-mail and its involvement in the rogue glitch. For now, we still need to discuss the cause and the solution.

also i just figured out how to solve the problem where it doesn't show your friends list, you go to the control panel and delete someone as your friend (not necessarily control panel, but that's how i did it) and it might also work if you add a friend as well.

There's a possibility that disabling and enabling profile comments might make them non-anonymous again and possibly fix other aspects of the rogue glitch, i don't know yet, i'll try to get killersup (who's currently experiencing the rogue glitch) to try those things to see if it helps any.

What about being completely locked out? I got the password glitch and when I went to go re-enter a password I got error 404. After that every page I went to on AG was a 404. It went away but this is the 3rd time it's happened and I'm just now able to post this.

Call me crazy...but I'm actually a bit bummed that I have yet to be hit by the Rogue Glitch. Am I not worthy? D= haha

Also...something I find weird that may have absolutely nothing to do with the glitch...but next to Email in the control panel...there is an asterisk..which would indicate that at the end of the page there would be another asterisk that would say something like "this needs to be filled out" or "so we can email you fun and annoying stuff"..but alas there is no asterisk anywhere else

Make that 4 times now. I fixed it by uninstalling Chrome and re-installing it. Took a while but it's working for now...

So, to continue Patrick2011's discussion about it, the cure seems to be different from simply changing/filling in your email address again... some people changed their comment email from enable to disable and back.

This fairly suggests that the problem is actually situated somewhere at the top section of the user's control panel as both the email box and the enable/disable option are seemingly involved. =/

And Patrick... I was merely stating the counter argument on your mentioning of the email option being the solution, which shows it isn't, apparently...
