    So I've been noticing something weird going on with the website the last couple of days and I didn't think it was a big deal until I used the refresh button to refresh rather than clicking Forums. Okay, a couple of things. One, the bar where it says Home, Forums, Steam, so on can get out of wack for a while while loading and be pushed down and have no icon and stuff - not too big of a deal but kind of annoying. Anybody else notice this or just me?

    It takes awhile to go to normal, as you can see.

    The bigger one, though, is that on occasional I'll notice I visit a page, leave it and go to the Forums page and have that page name as the title - so instead of saying {PR} Gaming at the top it'll say, for example, Sandbag (if I was viewing Sandbag's profile because I stalk people) and then if I click refresh... it takes me to his profile. Like I went back in time. Anybody else? I'll try to capture screenshots or something if I can, it seems to be kind of random.

    I didn't get to get a GIF of it, but as you see a new tab shows {PR} Gaming - old one shows this thread even though I'm on the Forums page... refreshing brings me here.....

    #1 sounds like the difficulties Liam was having awhile back. I still haven't seen it firsthand myself, not sure what's up.

    The rest is an artifact of how the music player loads and keeps running throughout the site - the player is in one frame and the site in another, so the top URL is just where you entered the site, not the current location of the forum frame. I think there are some javascript tricks to write the changing site URL up to the top level URL.. Might look into that after I'm done bitchslapping Ubuntu off my PC.

    Hmm, well #1 isn't too annoying - I just have to wait awhile for it to fully load to look normal. Luckily though, everything is still clickable and normal and all of that. Just... weird.

    This site is a bit glitched for me. Nothing that impacts my website experience. Just a few tabs are behind eachother.

    Known, but thanks. We're holding off a few minor fixes for a XenForo upgrade, which we're holding off until a webserver migration... There's a plan, we'll get around to it. ;)

    Giving likes and seeing the results instantly should be fixed. Did a few tweaks to improve page load times, which I think will help resolve the occasionally broken header. Please let me know if you run into that problem again. Page loads should be much snappier all around.

    There's a ton of caching going on to get that speed boost - if you occasionally have a very long page load (10-15 seconds or more) that's kinda normal - the cache just had to be refreshed because of age or I changed something. As long as it goes quick again on the next one.

    Please update this thread if anyone else gets the broken header or other problems.
