Links don't work occasionally

Sometimes when i load up the main page, the links on the left side (main,message board,chat, etc) won't work. A hand won't appear and it doesn't show the url on the bottom of the screen like when you normally hover over a link. They won't work if you click anyway. I will have to reload the page a few times before they work. Don't know if it's on my end only though, but it never happened before. I'm using IE btw.

Yeah, those ones. Everything else works fine, but for some reason those are not recognized as links occasionaly. In fact, it just happened again right now. I had to reload it twice before they would work.

Well, from my experiance with your problem is that the page isn't loaded up all the way. You click on it and the screen just returns to the top, right? When that happens to me I look at the bottom and notice that the screen is still loading up. That's why it works after awhile. If you hover over the smiley, it'll show that you are selecting something (it'll say "yawn" or something)

However, for my problem the main page is still completely loaded, it just doesn't recognize the links.

Yep, the menu is a simple image map, and the map data is at the bottom of the page.

Why it is not loading all the way for you, I have no clue. Hopefully you can put up with it until the next site design, which is in the works.

Sorry you are having problems!
