    First thing probably would be to try and make sure it's the blocking of script(s) that's doing it. It could have been due to temporary connection issues just as well.

    Signing up and changing the theme may or may not help as well (I have a more or less custom theme going on there, as there's no way I'd browse it with their default), though it may be that it's just Privoxy doing the most help for me. Haven't really tested as I've not used the site for years now...

    If using browser-based blocking, I'd recommend giving uBlock Origin a go, as an alternative to AdBlock Plus and such (reasons include, but are not limited to the latter using whitelists to allow certain advertisements).

    It's unfortunate that not too many moved on to Gamer Escape with us, and as such, I can't really recommend it as a (full) replacement (should work for some of the stuff), as I'm pretty much the only one editing there... and there's lots to be fixed and new stuff to be added still! ^^;

    Only tangently related, but...

    My biggest problem with ffxiclopedia is anytime I click on an image to get the bigger version (such as a map), it signs me out of wikia, changing me back to the awful default monaco skin instead of monobook.

    Yeah, the image system they use there is downright terrible. If you want maps, use ffxi-atlas instead. Much superior. That, and half of the time you try to view a map on ffxiclopedia, it won't actually bring up the CORRECT map, it'll bring up one of the others, and pop this GIANT ugly window up that locks your browser up for 5 minutes at a time (or at least it does on my slower computer).
