      lol

  2. yeah I have the same problem, everytime I'm trying to get on Armor Games, but I figured out how to trick it.

    What you do is click on the down arrow next to the forward button. Then click on Armor Games. If you've got any questions, ask them on my page.

    1. So how did you get around the problem?

  3. i can get on armor games but i have problems loading games thye dont show up :d ? que pasa? i using windows vista with ie version 7.0.6000.16609 sometimes the games load but other times not so good X{

    1. Can you post a link to a screenshot? Thx

  4. i had same problem i reset the page then the games loads for me must be from the scuirty setting if its too high it wont even let you go on games but i got mine med so it works on most sites and games

  5. and, i cant even play any games, and no one has helped me. Daniel you need more moderators

  6. when i clik to download shift 2 lvl maker thingy it gives me a search engine selection or a list of cookies (not the ones u eat) i dont know ie but i also have been expieriencing problems with games as dank 3dd said

  7. Sometimes when i come in the site i get an error saying "Internet Explore couldn't connect to http://armorgames.com"... i'm running Windows XP and Internet Explore 7

  8. It only loads about halfway on the bar before it stops.  I have Windows XP and Internet Explorer 7.

    1. Can you post a screenshot?

    2. just refresh the page or wait a moment i've had same problems..

  9. I use Ie but i dont have problems.

  10. yeah i have windows xp home edition version 5.1 service pack 2 internet explorer 7 every once in a while when i come to the site itll say it cant open armorgames .com then ill refresh it and itll work just fine

  11. I have internet explorer 7.0 and vista, I can access the site just fine.

  12. IE7 and windows XP, works just fine most of the time, when it doesn't, it'll work next time i try, or another day, so it was just a fluke, not sure if that helps or anything...

  13. pretty sure i'm runing IE 7, and every time i get onto armorgames, a message comes up saying that sonething just got aborted, and then i get the disconnected screen. But then, i refresh, and everything is fine.

  14. I have XP, old IE6, but everything works perfectly in the site. Who said IE7 was better?!

  15. i use umm the newest one IE 9 (i think ._.) and everytime i ote it sends me back to the homepage...and if this helps it usually works fine till around 7:00 Central time

  16. its version 7 so i use IE 7

  17. IE 7, with Windows XP. I get a notice in the middle of the screen saying it was aborted or something, my only option is ok. It then goes to a "could not find page" page.

    1. hey....when that happens click "Refresh Page" at the top of the screen...that works for me

  18. the game browser wont load but everything else will fine but except the game

    1. try resfresh or wait for some time.

  19. hey sometimes one of 2 things happen for me:

    Sometimes my game browser wont load but everything else will...

    And other times it wont load the whole site, but then i click " refresh page" and it works...

    maybe that'll clear up some complaints

  20. I am not able to see any of the games.

    IE 7 and XP Sp2

  21. windows vista sometimes have to refresh lose some items on sonny - hasn't happened for a few days though.

  22. I am using IE 7 and windows XP SP2.
    I've noticed two problems. The first is that nearly every time that I visit armorgames, about the time that everything finishes loading on the main page there is a popup that says:
    {
    Internet Explorer cannot open the Internet site http://armorgames.com/.

    Operation aborted
    }
    Once this popup occurs, the page cannot be clicked on until the popup is closed, at which point the page reverts to a default "page cannot be displayed" webpage. This is fixed by visiting the website again, or just refreshing the page, but the problem will occur again the next time that armorgames is visited after a while has passed. Also, just before that popup occurs, my popup blocker says that a popup was blocked, although it doesn't whenever the page loads normally (after refreshing). I'm not sure if this is related or not.

    The second problem is that a game doesn't load. It's as if the page loads normally, but the area where the game would be isn't there, and the advertisements that would be right above and below it are right next to each other, with very little space between them. This happens only sometimes, but as in the previous problem, refreshing the page usually fixes it.

    1. I have the exact same problems but I use AT&T Yahoo (not Dialup) but when I have the "page cannot be displayed" popup I have to go back and retype in the address bar, than it usually works. But what is really interesting is the page that comes up after that has the adress bar http://armorgames.com/ , or the homepage. I also have the problem w/ the game not loading. But a quick refresh (once or twice) will do the trick

  23. For me when I get to the site everything starts coming.  Then a pop-up pops up and says this site cannot be found.  Then it goes to the 404 page.  If I click refresh or type the site again it comes up.  A different pop-up comes up for about 2 seconds about some error and then dissapears... nowhere to be found.

  24. I can get on the site easy sometimes computer says it can't find it but when i press refresh it comes up i can't see the stuff like the categories of games and the fave button the game rater to

  25. For me ( IE version 7) just hitting refresh solves the prob and I can play

  26. I don't really have a problem, but sometimes I just see the 2 sponsors above and under the flash game, and not the flash game itself.
    I just gotta refresh then.
    Oh and with one game (don't know the game anymore) It's just not working, just a black screen, but all the other people CAN play it. It's not quite a problem.  (I've got IE version 6 I think)

  27. I have IE7 and i have the problem where the game is suppose to be there is nothing, but unlike everyone else when i hit refresh it doesn't fix it. i have found no possible way to play a game since the new armorgames site came up

  28. HELP PLEASE!!


    1. That was odd.

      Anyways, Vista Home with current IE.

      Buch of nonsense popped up infront of the background.

  29. I havent been able to play a single game on this site since it has changed. I have IE 7. I've tried several times to play many different games. Please comment back. Thanks

    1. Are you trying to play the games in IE7?

      -Daniel

  30. i used to have problems like the site wudent start or i got a error but it hasent been for a while.. so i think im saved =)

  31. Ya i loaded armorgames and it said something and i couldnt get on the site but then i just reloaded the website and it works perfectly

  32. I can get on the homepage but i have to try a few times to get it to work on anything else... i use IE7

  33. I use INTERNET EXplorer 7 and my operating system is Windows XP Home Edition

  34. A lot of the games at the top of the main page doesn't load for me and this big text covers the top part of the site:

    "Warning: Error establishing mySQL database connection. Correct user/password? Correct hostname? Database server running? in /chroot/home/armorga1/armorgames.com/html/application/class.Mysql.php on line 84

    Warning: mySQL database connection is not active in /chroot/home/armorga1/armorgames.com/html/application/class.Mysql.php on line 116"

    It also stands with smaller text just above the Armor Games logo, at the blue background. When I scroll down however, the site is normal. I use IE 7.

  35. ive used explorer all day and its been working out just fine.

  36. On my computer the whole page was messed like it didnt load all the games and it had a message saying something like "try logging in to play these games" or something like that and the whole  page was filled with that message

  37. IE 6, Win XP Pro
    Game doesn't appear on the page, everything else appears to have loaded properly.

  38. When i saw there was problems i tryed safari that doesn't work neither....

  39. when i open the website it says - internet coudnt open it -  so i just press refresh and it opens properly.

  40. I think the problem uccors when the browser doesnt show you that its loading, sometimes it may help if you wait till it is loaded, and then the games uccors, othervise i just refresh the page and it works, most of the time. I use IE 7 on my xp computer, and thats what i experiensed.

  41. Ok here it goes i use IE to run the armor games its simple all u have to do when u dont see come up when u load it once is refresh the page having to do it takes no time at all and your able to play

  42. My laptop keyboard doesn't work with the game TwoThree. I run Vista.

  43. Well I'm have some problems too. But I'm using Firefox. The page doesn't to fully load. There is just a lot of blue. Yet it works fine with IE 7. Here are some screen shots.

  44. Somtimes all of the ratings for games show as 0/10 and the flashes dont allways come up, just the comments and description. IM on IE but i dont know the version... also windows XP

  45. A lot of times when I go to rate a game, it will send me back to the homepage. Sometimes happens with the comments too, but mainly with ratings.

    1. me2

  46. using mozilla firefox and it is totally solw!

  47. Im using internet 7 and when I click on a game and wait for it to appear it doesn't this is with all the games i tried on armorgames.

  48. I'm using internet 7 and it either takes forever to load, or doesn't load at all, leading to an error on page.

  49. it just shuts down all the sudden whats up with that

  50. Report>

    Windows XP Professional Service Pack 3
    Internet Explorer 8 Developer Beta

    Works fine, IE 7 seems to be buggy with
    flash items.

    Note* IE 9 10 11 12 are NOT even being
    made yet and the latest public release
    is IE 7

  51. Im also having probelms i cant play certain games at all with IE just a blank white space with nothing not even a site ad :O

  52. i just have prombelms with games

  53. i have also had problems loading the site sometimes but i find if i refresh the page it works fine

  54. i have problems loading 2... or when i open my profile from the home page an error developes on the page and i cant go on the website for days at a time

  55. Nothing here, well i wasn;t able to add favs, but that fixed it's self the next day

  56. same here sumi i couldnt play certain games and couldnt add favs till a few days later?.......wtf?

  57. yeah the games arent coming up for me too.
    ive got XP & I.E.7

  58. mine works fine

  59. im using IE7 maybe your IE is lower better check it out beacause my IE is so fast

  60. I think I finally found it.

    In IE7, Win XP, SP2:

    If you load a game page in any tab EXCEPT the first one, the game flash object does not load at all, ever.  The rest of the game page, ads, comments, etc., loads just fine.  Refreshing does not help, at all.

    If you load the game page in the 1st available browser tab, the game flash object still fails to load perhaps 25% of the time, but always loads within a maximum of 2 refreshes.

    I've tested this extensively and the size or nature of the game does not seem to matter.

  61. Sorry, that's XP Pro, SP2.

    Also, I have checked for slow loading (as opposed to no-loading), and that's not what's happening.  There's no browser activity, no network connection activity, and if you leave the (game-empty) game page open overnight, the flash object still hasn't appeared hours later.

  62. Also, nearly 2 months since re-launch and it takes you that long to notice that you have "several complaints"?  As in, over half your user base up and left because your site just plain didn't work, AT ALL?

    Epic fail, sorry.  Try harder to pretend that you care next time.

  63. mines seemed to start working

  64. Operating System: Windows XP Pro (SP2)
    Processor: Intel(R) Celeron CPU 2.80GHz
    Memory: 1012MB RAM
    DirectX Version: DirectX 9.0c
    IE: 6.0

    Just some info from DxDiag and IE version. Hope this helps.

  65. easy way round, just click the back button, works fine when i do that

  66. When I visit armorgames, the homepage comes up, then immediately an error saying it cannot open armorgames.com.  I click ok, the 'cannot find server' page comes up, I refresh, then armorgames comes up and it doesn't fail.

  67. i cant play any games here!!!

  87. for several games, the page loads perfectly, but the game doesnt.  Even the 2 sponsors load above and below where the game should be, but instead of the game, there is just a white screen...

    on some other games, it flashes through the whole menu, like a really bad glitch, and just doesnt work

    PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!
