| Every time I try to join a game it loads everything until it gets to "WAITING FOR CHARACTER" It does that and puts me in a spectator mode. After a while just says "This Game has Shut down" Does this for every single online game. I can only play solo games. This happened to me after an update on Roblox. Please give me your suggestions. |

| It's the new site layout! This site layout has been making my internet non-responsive. I hate this layout. The toolbar following the page is annoying! I liked the other ROBLOX better! |

| I liked the other Roblox better to I read about your problem and it's because of the new update. I hope Roblox takes note of these forums and try to fix it with an update restoring the old lay out. |

| Yep, are you experiencing lag on the site by any chance, when you scroll, and freezing after leaving a game? |

| Now that I don't have. I think this update did different things to different people. I heard one other person with a super fast computer is also lagging terribly also. This update gave many negative effects. |

| I have been having a slightly different problem. So I start a game the screen darkens and tries to load. A new blank window opens but in a few seconds, it closes leaving the screen partially darkened until I hit cancel. I tried again and again but the same problem occurs. Is it the website, servers etc. or am I doing something wrong. |

I have it, and these solutions don't work:
1. Using a different account. 2. Reinstalling ROBLOX. 3. Playing as a Guest. 4. Using Internet Explorer or Chrome instead. 5. Shutting the computer down. 6. Turning the firewall off.
Personally, I think it is caused by the games relevance update, as whenever I join a game the list is not affected. I think that they should fix it by tomorrow, as it is a major problem. |

It usually has nothing to do with the browser or ROBLOX. Often, you need to just reboot your router so you get a new IP address. Or you can try getting a side host at [dyndns][1].
