Deviant Art....

Post by Void99 »

Anyone else have problems with DA?
Just takes me to this annoyingly addictive mini game instead.
Hopefully it's temporary.

Mini game? Which one?

Void, I presume you have been hacked :shock:

No, he hasn't been hacked. Stop overreacting and giving those people credit they don't deserve, ES.


Void, don't listen to him. You haven't been hacked because I have had the same thing happen to me when I've been on DA. It's the mini game with the llama jumping over fences right? I think that happens when you've been off-line and returned back online, that comes on when they are trying to restore your online status. Sometimes it stays and all you have to two is press the back button, then you're back to whatever you've been browsing.


It's just an annoying little feature DA as introduced for whatever reason. Thankfully, it hasn't happened to me in a good long while.

Yeah it was the jumping game, and only started earlier just before work when I tried to access DA. Just kept slinging me on that game when trying to access the site. Even DA links on Google were sending me to it.

Shut down and restarted my phone and that seems to have done the trick.
Very odd though, never had that ever happen before!

That's the one. I don't know why DA have suddenly decided to put the game on or when it started but it just did. I did the same thing to my phone: shut it down and then restarted it, no more game.

I know what you mean, I was surprised myself and I thought it was an error message when it first came on.
