I'm having a strange problem with Escapist videos, they just refuse to work. No error or anything, just a blank black screen. I did most of the help suggestions but I want to check to make sure its not some kind of local issue. Any other Escapists in Thailand (or reasonably nearby) having the same issue? I've had it do this before but deleting cookies, upgrading browser, etc. worked but not this time.

The most bizzare part though is that I tried to load 4 videos at once to see if one would work or not. I went AFK for about an hour, come back to find 1 of them works perfectly fine but the others still stayed the same. Firefox, Chrome, and even IE all failed to work. The odd part though is that one video outlier, else I'd be able to chalk it up to one thing or another.

Another issue I've been experiencing is with the forums, tried to make this cry for help multiple times already but I just get errors.

Hmmm... Well I've had a similar problem but just with certain videos in specific, like The Dead Don't Shuffle [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/miracle-of-sound/4134-The-Dead-Dont-Shuffle-Left-4-Dead], but I think that video is just broken, anyway have you tried contacting the Tech Team [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/groups/chat/Tech-Team] they tend to know this kinds of things, unlike me.

I didn't even know we had a tech-team. Thanks!

Also, surprisingly the other thread I created just spawned.
