Recent issue with gamedev.net

First off, this very well could be my problem but I just wanted to mention it in case there was some change made to the website that's causing it. I've noticed in the last few days that after I have gamedev sitting in the browser for a while, it starts to respond very slowly.  Also I get a message from Firefox about this website slowing down your browser.  As I said this seems like a fairly recent thing. I'm using Firefox Quantum 67.0.4 (64 bit). Hopefully I posted this in the right group. Thanks

I can confirm this. I am using Firefox Quantum 67.0.3 (64 bit). A version diff off 0.0.1 @Gnollrunner. Maybe this is just a Firefox issue?

There have been some recent changes, but I might have found the problem and made some further changes. Let me know if you continue to see the issue.

Thanks. I think it's fixed now.

There is another issue. I can no longer edit any of my projects and all my project pages are broken (except Voxyc). When I click on "My Project Dashboard" I get the following. I contacted support, but received no response. Should I just make a new account? This happened right after adding a bunch of screenshots to the gallery.

Something went wrong. Please try again.

Error code: EX0

I believe I replied to the support request when I fixed it previously, but this new error should be resolved.

Basically there's a bug in the projects where your various items can be set to an invalid value, which causes the whole thing to bomb. With the new platform coming so soon it's unlikely to be resolved unless I suddenly have an idea the cause and can quickly apply a patch. It seems to be mostly related to devs importing their project from another platform, but not always. I may remove importing entirely for that reason. In the meantime I can fix the problem manually for anyone who reports it.

Anyway, current known issues have been fixed.

Thank you so much. My project dashboard is fixed now.

Just a short question:

Is there any schedule for the new platform release?

The site just crashed my computer by eating up all the RAM while being run in the background. -.-

ASAP. Wanted to hit June 15, the 20th year, but too risky to launch at that point.

The memory issue is ads related. I've contacted our ad partner on this.

Thanks a lot :)
