Two things:

1. If you look under "About ANN" you'll see a heading that reads "Contact us."

2. There is a forum here dedicated to the Encyclopedia where you probably would have been better of posting this.

Other than that the Encyc is working just fine for me.

Hope that helps.

I had the same problem with Netscape this evening, but it's working fine in Internet Explorer.

Dear Josh,

Are you F*cking blind? (My rules, I can break them).

1) Generally one would expect to find an e-mail address under "contact us." So yes, this damn site does have e-mail addresses on it, did you not see it?

2) We have a forum called "Bugs & Technical Questions" and another called "Encyclopedia." Did you not see either of these obviously better places to post your technical problem with the encyclopedia?

3) And did you also not see our rules when you registered? One of which says "we expect proper grammar, spelling, and punctuation." Proper English grammar requires capitals, these are achieved on a keyboard by using a 'shift key', there should be one on each end of your alpha-numeric keyboard. Can you see it?

Next time you want help try 1) being polite 2) posting in the right place and 3) following our rules.

All this is kinda moot though since Josh is now banned. I didn't ban him *just* for this, but I looked at his posts and they are complete and utter garbage.

This is strange. Ever since yesterday, I can never check an Encylopedia listing unless I'm logged in.

Everytime I look things up now, every title seems to bring up a blank page unless I do so. Shocked

I use Internet Explorer, but... anyway, this is just weird. I wanted to get this out.

That is exactly the problem I was experiencing until I decided to register to see if that would help anything. As It turns out, it did help.

I guess I'm in the same boat......... unless I am logged in I can not read some of the pages in the Encyclopedia. I'm curious if this is just a glitch or a permanate thing.

Thanks befor hand for the help.

Could someone post a list of pages that are blank when not logged on? I'm browsing the encyc when not logged on and everything* seems to be fine. Ihave no doubt that this problem exists, I'm just having trouble replicating it.

As I undestand it, it happens in IE as well as Netscape, right? This isn't somehting limited only to one browser?

*Everything except the rating pages, as mentionned n the previous thread.

Ditto here as well.

I use IE 6.0, and have noticed that if I click (under Encyclopedia) anime -> letter -> series, the page is blank when I'm not logged in. However, if I follow a link from elsewhere (google or some such) the page appears fine when I'm not logged in. When I'm logged in it all works fine.

Dunno if this helps or not.

I logged out and clicked around for a bit. This page came up blank. Hope that helps a bit more Wink

Same here. I tried Cassandra's example and a few others. Some pages would be blank such as

anime#1140

anime#2024

However some pages like these two worked fine

anime#3435

anime#119

**edit** fixed my links

Akira (movie) anime#375

Angel Links (TV) anime#1

Azumanga Daioh (TV) anime#799

Berserk (TV) anime#328

Cowboy Bebop (TV) anime#13

Almost any Mobile Suit Gundam title:
Mobile Fighter G Gundam (TV) anime#299

Mobile Suit Gundam (TV) anime#46

Mobile Suit Gundam 0080: War in the Pocket (OAV) anime#22

Mobile Suit Gundam 0083: Stardust Memory (OAV) anime#23

Mobile Suit Gundam SEED (TV) anime#883

Mobile Suit Gundam Wing (TV) anime#26

Mobile Suit 08th MS Team (OAV) anime#24, but the movie works

Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam (TV) anime#24

It's strange. It does this on my home PC and on this library computer at school. It never did this until about Saturday night, for me.
