Totally blank page when viewing off topic

On my computer, when I go to the off topic section, I get a totally blank page. Developer tools tell me it had a head and body with nothing in them, and a very basic style sheet - anyone else seeing this? If I click notifications I can get to individual topics like the LOL pic thread, but I cannot view the make OT page from my PC.

Any ideas? Have I been banned or blocked or something?

Actually, the same thing was happening to me. I cleared my cache, cookies, etc. but it just solved itself too for no apparent reason.

What's weird is that if I clicked on the last thread with a posted reply from the main menu, I could access that thread, but nothing else.

It's not just you!

Off Topics went blank for me as well. I had just finished making fun of the 2021 M4, so I thought I got banned. Turns out, the mods removed my poke at 'the face only a mother could love' for some reason.

Oh well.

I have head and body tags (empty) but that's it for the page.

It has been happening for a couple of days for me, I assume it’s a system issue.

I’ve been getting it off and on for about a week on my iPad. I did the full power down and that didn’t help so i went ahead and installed iPadOS15. It comes and goes. This morning I could see some pages but not all, now it seems to be ok again.

Yeah, I got the white screen of death page again this morning, then it mysteriously cleared up.

Weird.
