it just looks like it is done loading but nothing comes up. the refresh bar as well as the back and forward bars indiicate that the page is done loading. it has been like this for almost a month. i have tried clearing cookies and stuff but i cant think of what could be doing this. im sure they wouldnt ban me; i only post on their forums oncein a while. idk what to do so im posting here and hopefully someone will have a solution to this strange problem. thanks.

See what happens when you click on this link to the site-

As did I. Perhaps their web server went down for a bit? Doesn't seem like it was anything on your side... unless you still cannot access it.

try pressing Shift + the refresh button on the browser (not f5)

ya i asked my friends to try it and it worked for all of them. it has been like this for a month so the server just didnt go down. shift plus doesnt do anything. thanks for trying to help. is there anything else i can do? :dizzy:

You say you have this problem with FireFox.
Does this happen with I.E. as well?
For FireFox take a look at this. Scroll down to "Why do I see the "unable to connect" message (Firefox only)."

it happens in IE too. i did that firefox thing but it still wont work. do i think i could have been banned from the site? i mean if i was, would this be what would be happening? btw thanks for the help so far guys.

This is the second time you mentioned being banned from this site.
Most bannings I've experienced, there's a message saying so when you try to enter the site.
If you want to post your user name for that site I suppose one could look at the member's list and see if there's a ban in place.
Could also be an entry in your host files preventing that site from being accessed.

try pressing Shift + the refresh button on the browser (not f5)Hm i have always pressed F5 or just clicked REFRESH when pages dont load.... Ill have to try this :)
