Tyler. Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 did any of your plugins crash? (Flash for example) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Ryan Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 I don't think so. How can I check though? Edit: I just realized. It's mainly pages that have alot of moving images. (Youtube, Neos' add-filled front page, Ikariam's new front page that is a bunch of graphics) Does that sund like a problem with flash? -unsure if it's just a coincidence- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAV of Gang Green Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 Youtube, Neo, and Ikariam all have extremely heavy doses of flash. Did you update your flash? Sometimes, you have an old version of it, and a quick update will get it running normally again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyler. Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 most likely flash, if you need to update, it should pop up every time you start up your laptop so, it probably crashed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAV of Gang Green Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 That's how it is with me. But I've heard of some cases where you have to manually update it. Ryan, when an update to flash is available, does it pop up? Or do you have to update it manually? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spritzie Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 I hate when things automatically update. I prefer to do it myself, when I'm ready. Things like Adobe Reader are always trying to update automatically. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyler. Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 that's how my antivirus is, Spritzie, and the updates take like 20 minutes and I have to shut down my computer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spritzie Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 I hate when I have to do that for work, because with my work computer, I don't have a choice. (Though I usually end up forgetting to restart for awhile.) I think Chrome bugs me the most. It will update without asking (how rude :P) and I haven't checked to see if there's a setting to change that yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAV of Gang Green Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 Windows does these updates. I always hit the "Remind me in 1 hour" button, since I have to restart the computer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spritzie Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 I do that with the scan that runs on my computer that checks for updates for my work programs. It always comes up while I'm in the middle of something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAV of Gang Green Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 I can actually let antivirus scans work in the background, and I can continue with my business. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spritzie Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 All the scans seriously decrease my computers ability to do things. As it is, the programs that are required run it down a lot. Then there's the anti-virus, encryption software, etc. I usually put it off so that it runs while I'm not here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAV of Gang Green Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 Not mine. My computer is already slow as it is, so there is no change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spritzie Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 If it wasn't for all the programs and such I had to have installed, this would be an extremely fast computer. But no such luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAV of Gang Green Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 I just nearly broke my brother's arm because he was getting me angry. This, school, my father, life.... I CAN'T TAKE THIS CRAP ANYMORE!!!!!!!!!!! Someone, anyone. You have to help me. I'm about to snap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jumpingbeans Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 I CAN'T TAKE THIS CRAP ANYMORE!!!!!!!!!!! I always feel like that. :(. So, what do you want to rant about? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyler. Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 we're here to read listen to your anger CAV, why don't you let some steam out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Ryan Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 I bet that's the problem. It DID ask me if I wanted to update the other day when I restarted my laptop which I hadn't done n months before that. CAV, what's wrong? :( -gets drinks and m&ms for everyone, puts on therapist glasses, and goes to get therapist chair for CAV- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAV of Gang Green Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 Ok, let's see: 1. School is a load of crap, with undying work loads, a staff that treat me like a baby, and an annoying as heck uniform in which is you are missing a piece of it you have to get a USED one from the closet. 2. I'm fighting with my father on a daily basis, argueing about the littlest things. Then he doesn't listen to what I have to say. 3. He thinks he's the only one in stress, when I have to juggle both school and home. 4. I'm losing my stress relievers, which is the computer (to talk with friends) and my games. 5. My brother is driving me insane. 6. I've been diagnosed with depression. I am not making that crap up. 7. Nobody gives a crap about what I think (this includes on TDN). 8. I've been rejected of staff on several websites on several occations (this includes TDN). 9. I failed EVERY class I have in HS, with the exception of PE. 10. I have few friends here, no friends on other sites, and only 1 friend in RL. 11. I'm alone. 12. I only got 1 birthday present, from my uncle. That's right. NOTHING from my own freakin father. 13. My school actually MAKES me want to drop out, which is something I would never think of. 14. I am soon going to get banned from TDN (I have a strong feeling of this). 15. I'm seeing 2 THERAPISTS and I see nothing happening for me. 16. I might actually have thoughts of......you know.... Somebody......help me......I can explain more if someone gives me a base to start with.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Ryan Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 I don't mean to sound like one of those annoying people that never get sador angry, but how about looking at the bright side of things? Obviously it's pretty rough right now but it can't be all bad. And also, it appears it can't get any worse so that means it can only get better. -nodnod- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAV of Gang Green Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 People wonder why I have become an athiest. For the 16 reasons above. I lost a lot of faith in God when my mother died. Those reason took what was left of my hope. There is no bright side. I fail to find any. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Ryan Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 Then lets think of some.-nodnod- You have a rl friend. Not everyone does. You have many many people at TDN who are your friends. TDN loves our official video game addict. -nodnod- :P Atleast your not completely without video games and the internet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAV of Gang Green Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 I barely see my RL friend. I can only see him on Saturdays. Really? Other than you, JB, Spritzie, and Divya, I fail to find any others. I don't list Tyler there since he's barely online anymore. I want you to name 10 that are ACTUAL friends. And if they are friends, then why doesn't my opinions matter to you all? I barely have the games and internet. And with all the stress that I have, them being taken away from me means I lose the few friends that I DO have online. Might I also add my "I haven't had a girlfriend in 7 years" piece into this?

The Score in Blue Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 Yes, there is always a bright side. You have heaps of friends here on TDN and we love you and your video game addiction. Wait, am I not your friend???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAV of Gang Green Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 I don't know that much to call you a real friend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
