Look, I know that I probably put this in the wrong section of the forums but as I see it, there is pretty much close to nowhere else I can. I f you can direct me or an Admin move me to it then I will be gratefull, the Escapist forums are new and scary.

Anyway, I've been unable to watch a certain video on the escapist for quite some time now, I have the latest adobe and such, yet it sill keeps buffering and buffering (You know, that little loading circle that spins round and round.) Was there any sort of recent change, I cannot watch it on 5 different computers. I went to the Help desk of the site that owns the show and I as told to ask here.

Please help me fix it!

Howdy.

Firstly, yes, you are in the wrong spot, but we won't hold that against you. Off-topic would be the place for this sort of thing. Our local mods are nilcypher [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/profiles/view/wilsonscrazybed], should you ever need them.

Secondly, the page for video help is here [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/help], easily accessed by the link to the bottom-right of any video on the site. Beyond that, I'm not that able to help you.

Finally, welcome to The Escapist.

You might even be able to talk to <a href=http://www.escapistmagazine.com/profiles/view/virgil>Virgil who could give you more help.

Welcome. The muffin basket will be along shortly :)

Welcome to Jurassic Park.
Where trolls, are non-existent.
No, instead of trolls, we have those creatures that died out long ago.
We call them civilized people.

He's lying, trolls are plentiful here, they just hide in the underbrush, to be shot at by the wiser Escapists in jeeps with elephant guns.
and blow darts. Don't forget blow darts

True, they stay under the bridges for the most part. There is one problem though, who uses Elephant guns? I prefer the B.F.G. 9000 to shoot trolls with.

I find it infinitely amusing that all replies so far has failed to adress OP's problem.

I find it even more amusing that I do so too.

You have to at least make it a challenge, make them feel like they have the upper hand then *BAM* orbital bombardment!
Lure the Berserker outside before blasting it with the Hammer of Dawn? Brilliant!

*Upon hearing this, immediately stops stuffing his face*

ohoh
It took us an hour to find one of those!!!!!!!
*goes and makes more muffins. This time she makes Adam-proof muffins*
*casts Conjure Food in order to make more muffins for Adam*

As to the matter at hand, I honestly have no clue how to help. From the looks of things, neither does anyone else.

Which video was it, anyhow?

Holy shit, this turned into an RP in 0-2 posts!

What browser are you using? My firefox/google chrome conflicted with web videos up until I re-installed them.

Welcome!
Wait a minute.....he gets a muffin basket?!
I never got a nice muffin basket when I joined.
And I can't blame Adam either...I joined before him.
Can I have a muffin now though?

And anyway, for helping you with your video. I can't really help, if you only tried with one computer, I might have been able to, but not when you tried five different ones.

Me neither.

No one cared when I hit 1K posts, either.

They don't care about me :(
