AO3 issue

[janne_d]

Is it just me, or does anyone else have problems when you try and open a link to AO3 in a new tab? Because it seems that every time I try to do that, it crashes my browser and it is really pigging annoying!

ETA make that 'try to get to AO3' at all, not just through a link.

Works fine for me.

Darn it. I have managed to get there in the last week or so, but this is the second instance I've had where the archive webpage Just Won't Load. It sits there with a blank page, saying it has one item remaining, and after that nothing happens - current attempt is at 26 minutes and counting - and if I try to redirect to another website or close the tab, I get 'Not responding' from my browser and have to close everything down and start again just to break the deadlock.

I wanted to read a fic there too, wah!

Maybe it's your browser? I use Firefox and never noticed anything like that. Your problems sound like something that should be reported as a bug so that they can try to find what's causing the problems. Although reporting it is easier said then done when you can't access the site...

Precisely. *looks rueful* I use IE and I don't have a problem with any other sites - which I suppose is good for the 'bug' hypothesis.
