Forums → Support Forum → ArmorGames technical issues help

I have noticed that lately a lot of people have been posting new threads about a problem with loading thing's and having glitches. So I am just here to try to help you out with why your computer may be loading thing's slowely or not at all.

1) Your internet browser may be a older version of Internet explorer or Mozilla FireFox. So having this older version of browser is going to have these issues of slow loading. They are not able to upload image's as fast, get the proper data to upload onto the screen, and are pretty much disabled from adjusting to change on the site. So in reality, your browser is too slow to handle the fast change and large load of armorgames.

2) It may be your computer that cannot handle the new thing's that are faster so it just panic's (freeze or messed up screen). For example, let's say that I have a 15 year old computer with the newest version of Internet Explorer. IE wants to go fast and get to where you want to go fast but your computer cannot produce the charge needed to get there. Your computer either freezes or stops trying to get to the page so that your computer doesn't overload and crash. This also explain's the why glitches have happened and why they are caused. There is NOTHING wrong with this happening. It is actually a GOOD thing. It is preventing your computer form further damage. You may have to refresh the page or restart your computer to get to where you need to go.

3) Armorgames may be experiencing a sudden change or may be personally changing something. It is more of a security thing when they are changing something and you cannot access the page wanted. A lot of time's when you are trying to load something and it takes a LONG time, Armorgames may be adjusting something or the AG server is overloaded with demands for pages. It baisically restarts itself in the time when it says, "Oops there seems to be an error on the page". So just refresh the page amd it will probably work just fine.

4) A script a lot of the time is what make's Armorgames run slowely. All that is happening when a script is the problem is that a certain thing that makes AG run is being automatically changed so that nothing bad happens. It may be that a certain page feature is being added or taken out, a comment has been deleted so it chnges the script, and there are many other reasons why a script will change.

5) The last reason why Armorgames may seem to run slowely is the moderator's are doing something to the site. It does not have to be a big thing that is happening either. A lot of the time a moderator is deleting a comment and it just freezes the entire site because there are many thing's included into it, such as a forum. There may be many responses on it so it takes some time for the sever to completely get rid of that information. Another example may be that a moderator is giving out merit's and in order to make the point's givin to that person, the site must actually 'restart' itself. It happens so fast that all that we realize is alittle bit of turbulance(short time of slow loading).

I hope that this will help you figure out why your computer may run slow sometimes or why some thing's will happen when you post a comment. They are all just case's of when something is being adjusted to the site or you don't have the right kind of technoligy for what your computer can handle.
