Alright, I'm having an incredibly strange issue with the website The Escapist. And it's been going on for the past month or so.
Simply put, when I'm at home on my own home network... None of the videos work. Instead of playing the video I've actually chosen to play, they play this ancient advert for the site itself featuring very old content creators that haven't even been on the site in years.
It doesn't matter what browser or device I attempt to watch them on, if I'm using my home network, the videos refuse to load.
I've narrowed the problem specifically to my home network as I just attempted to watch a video on a separate network and it worked just fine.
I have attempted to contact both the site's staff and the users on the user forums to try and remedy the issue, but I was flat-out ignored on both counts. I don't know if the problem is actually causing my posts and emails to not even work, or if they just have terrible customer support.
Does anybody know what the hell is happening?
Thanks!
