For whatever reason I can't get play.net to load on Internet Explorer and it's been that way for a long time. I just reset IE settings to make sure I hadn't messed anything up accidentally and it still doesn't work. I am using version 11.0.10240.16724.

Does anyone know of a fix that usually works for this? It has happened across multiple computers.

Works for me just fine and I'm on EDGE with Windows 10 64. Are you able to test this in a different location? For example, if you're trying it at work, work may be blocking it and you're just SOL.

I'm at home. Edge, Chrome, and Firefox all work fine. IE specifically is the issue.

Why the fuck are you using IE in 2016?

Get a different browser.

There are a few websites for my work (that I access at home) that only work correctly with IE, and I prefer not to use multiple browsers at the same time. For my situation, it would be good if play.net worked with my IE.

It's not Viekn's fault that their work sucks balls enough to not upgrade their shit to work with other browsers...

it is his fault for only installing one browser on his computer. Who doesn't have two or three different browsers?

Le sigh. I have all the browsers anyone could ever want. Play.net works fine on all except IE. I want play.net to work on IE. I want someone to point to something and say "flip this switch" and magically all my shit will work on IE. Bingo. Bango. Bongo.

Microsoft.com won't even work for IE soon enough, pal.

Look, I don't know how you browse, but half the fun is in getting to manually set up your TCP/IP sockets.

Seriously, no one going to post a clip of that? I left that juicy piece of fruit hanging out there thinking someone would jump on it. No O11 (redone) fans out there?

How specifically does it not work? What error message do you receive?

It's a blank white page. No error message. Nothing. There's no continuous blue circle like it keeps trying to load. It loads a blank white page and that is it.

Haha, I can't believe play.net is too high tech for something.

If browsing from a work computer, it could just be an internet filter.

Negative. Play.net is the only website that loads a blank white page.

Home computer.

Got a PM suggesting that clicking on a link to the website vs. typing it in the address bar might work, and it does. That more or less is an acceptable work around for me. I appreciate everyone's responses. Hopefully my lame (and I say that with all seriousness) problem was able to amuse some of you for a bit.

Why are you accessing work sites on your home computer? That just sounds wrong. Tell your company to get on board with the times and at least give you a laptop when you want to work from home.

Work on your home system... madness.
