Have a question about how the TVTropes wiki works? No one knows this community better than the people in it, so ask away! Ask the Tropers is the page you come to when you have a question burning in your brain and the support pages didn't help.
It's not for everything, though. For a list of all the resources for your questions, click here. You can also go to this Directory thread

Might be an ad. I've run into that a couple times.
Also check how many tabs are open. Safari gets snippy with me at more than eight, and Chrome doesn't like more than 14-15.

I tried closing all my other tabs, but that didn't work. If it is an ad, how can I deal with that?
My new plan is so secret that even I cannot understand its full scope!
An update: I tried installing other browsers, and it still won't work. I'm starting to think that it won't even work on my computer when I'm able to use it.

The only way I've been able to deal with ads is to wait for them to cycle around to new ones. I use Chrome, so visiting sites I know normally kick up innocent, well-behaved ads (Big Fish, Amazon), usually helps.
In Chrome app, you can clear the cache. I've only had to do that once.
I haven't had to do it with a browser app -it crashes first- but when a game is giving me grief, even if the phone itself is behaving, I say, "Heck with it" and do a full reboot. (You're supposed to do that periodically anyway, so I don't have to think about doing it later.)

I can't post on the forums. I'm on my smartphone, and when I click the post button, which should take me to the page where I type what I want to post, it starts to load, then stops. I have tried multiple times, on several different forums, as well as closing the tab, going back to the site, logging in again, and trying again. Nothing I have tried let's me finish loading the page, and I'm fairly certain this is a technical problem on TVT's end, since I've tried all the usual fixes(yes, even turning it off and on again. If it's something I could do, I've done it.) on my end.
It's gotten even worse; two of the posts below are me updating, and the one reply, though it gave some good ideas, did not help me at all.
