spacer Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 I was just about to post this exact same issue. It's been happening on all of my machines (all Windows 7, viewing the site with Chrome) for weeks now. It's supremely annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheatyface Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Is it just the main page or forums too? Front page and news articles from the front page, for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sandor Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Just like to say it's been like this for a long time for me. Site still works fine. Just always has the loading square in the top right Shadrack 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timan Veteran Posted April 23, 2013 Veteran Share Posted April 23, 2013 If I had to guess, its related to the notifications. Will have another dev look at it in the morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Veteran Posted April 24, 2013 Veteran Share Posted April 24, 2013 If I had to guess, its related to the notifications. Will have another dev look at it in the morning. If you mean PM notifications, that's working. The comments, however, are not working for me either in IE10 in addition to the bug I filed earlier.

Shadrack Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Just like to say it's been like this for a long time for me. Site still works fine. Just always has the loading square in the top right This is the behavior as well on Firefox/Windows 7 and Safari on Mac OS X. Haven't noticed it in iOS. The spinner sometimes seems to get stuck spinning (although I'm not always sure if it is just getting some content somewhere very slowly) but everything still seems to work OK. I haven't had issues where I am unable to respond to comments due to it (I think)... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven P. Administrators Posted April 24, 2013 Administrators Share Posted April 24, 2013 It shows when the minispy is updating, or when you are saving a post in the forums.. I'm on Chrome Beta/Windows 8 and it doesn't stick for me, but we'll get Redmak to take a look. Out of curiosity, are you using AdBlock on Neowin? because I believe that blocks certain elements of the minispy, which we can't do anything about anyway..

morebaker Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 only on the main page and yes i have adblock plus but it is disabled for neowin.net Steven P. 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sulphy Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Only on the homepage for me, i am using the latest build of chrome dev, and i do have adblock ... i am on a widescreen, so it doesnt bug me in the least! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven P. Administrators Posted April 24, 2013 Administrators Share Posted April 24, 2013 OK at a guess, it's to do with the load more stories bit at the bottom of the main page. It should only ever show though when you click the link to load more stories. I'll bug Redmak when he comes online about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris123NT Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 I see it on the forums mostly. In threads as well. I have adblock installed but disabled for this site so I don't think it has to do with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Veteran Posted April 24, 2013 Veteran Share Posted April 24, 2013 It's something in the tracking protection list I was using. Disabling with the "no" symbol in the address bar made the spinner go away. Not sure it fixes the other issues yet. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmazingRando Posted May 11, 2013 Author Share Posted May 11, 2013 I just finally used Ad Block to create a filter and selected the spinner and blocked it to finally get rid of it. Steven P. 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zhangm Supervisor Posted May 14, 2013 Supervisor Share Posted May 14, 2013 I just finally used Ad Block to create a filter and selected the spinner and blocked it to finally get rid of it. Had this issue with IE10; blocked it with a custom stylesheet: .spinner[id="ajax-spinner"] { display: none; } AmazingRando 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
