Is there going to be a bug-fix patch 19.2 before Update 20? My Ninja Spy Shuriken thrower could really use that +2 to crit range! =)

Unsure whether your issue with the Ninja Spy Shuriken is in there, but yes - we currently have a Patch 2 planned prior to the release of Update 20. Time TBA.

• Session lengths for “inactivity” have been significantly extended (by several hours.)

This gets multiple <thumbs up>

Cordovan, any chance you could box this feature up and bring it on over to the LOTRO forums?

Anyone else having this issue?



I have not used any custom style sheets or anything.

Also tried in IE (lol) and ran into basically the same issue. What's the deal?

Totally screwed up the website now. When I just loaded the web page (at 7:30pm EST) for ddo I was asked to enable cookies which was kind of funny since I never turned them off. So I think you're site and forum update screwed something up.

The whole formatting of the forums is messed up for me now. I changed no setting. I get what's above me plus a whole host of problems now..Should we have expected anything less?

Same problem for me as well. Messed up format, says I need to enable cookies (never disabled them).

Also, LOL @ this

FYI:

I tried closing my browser, flushing the DNS cache, and then reloading. It did not work. But then...

It worked after I rebooted!

When you say now available, you might mention that they are barely usable since it hardly loads. Getting the same issues as mentioned above. Enable cookies, my screen matches the jumbled mess of a screen shot shown earlier of another user's forum page. So basically it's "C, all of the above."


Edit: after posting this, everything magically corrected itself. The only thing I did was log in to post this message. Anybody else try logging in and see if it corrects the issue.

I strongly recommend you clear your DNS cache and reboot your computer. To do so, start by closing your browser. Then simply open a command prompt (usually from start menu or control panel, I had to do a search from "HP Quickstart" since I now have Windows 8, and no clue how to find mine anymore). After you do so, type in the following (enter after each line):

ipconfig /flushdns

exit

Then, reboot, and check out the site again.

It's back to normal for me now too.

This wouldn't have done anything. I had the same issues and did all of that and it didn't fix anything. It was a forum issue not a user's computer issue.

The following changes were made to the DDO website and forums today!
• The forums now support a dynamic (“stretchy”) browsing width to allow visitors to adjust their text reading space.

This new width, while very nice and all... How can I undo it?

I hate text walls as is, but text walls when they're wider is just painful.
