Still an issue. iPhone 13.
Software version 15.5.

is this a iOS / OS X limitation with processes being killed if resource consumption is too high?
Can’t say I’ve experienced this with chrome / kiwi

+1 to this.

iPhone 8 plus
Chrome

been happening since I started playing, and on forums only.

posts with media/pictures are worse for sure.
Nemphesis [2488472]
An issue for me too :( I’ve given up trying to use these forums much from mobile because the crash is just frustrating.

iPhone 12 pro, iOS 15.5

Update: since this post, I’ve moved to iOS 16 beta 3 and the issue still has not reappeared for me. Seems Apple may indeed have resolved the issue that caused this.

IOS 16 beta 4 Update: I've gone onto a few forum threads with plenty of images and still am not experiencing this issue.

I've also tested on the app and on safari (even tried brave for good measure).

I know there are still a few months between now and the iOS 16 public release but I can't see this issue recurring.

I am still facing this on iOS 16 beta 3, so I am not confident about this being resolved from Apple side.
PlatinumDevil [1920420]
Can you send me the forum it happens on with you, this way I can see if also happens for me, this way I’m checking the same thread as you as it is always possible that I’m not using a thread it would happen on.
PlatinumDevil [1920420]
Well now I’m sad, I really thought the issue was resolved, looks like I just wasn’t loading big enough threads (*insert crying face emoji*).

that way crashed on me as well :(
MightyGoober [812478]
Sure, I'll also give this another poke.

Fellow iOS user here, I have just learnt to deal with it, that on some thread pages, I just won't be able to read them, and if I'm interested enough I have to remember to use desktop to go back to see them.

iPhone 13 pro. Happens constantly to me, screen just goes white and this happens a lot.


Posts with a lot of images definitely makes it worse
Aryore [1835557]
This is getting ridiculous. Some threads are completely impossible to read because opening them immediately forces a refresh, over and over, until the browser gives up and displays a black screen

e.g. https://www.torn.com/forums.php#/p=threads&f=2&t=16288948&b=0&a=0

Edit: Interesting to note that the crash-refresh cycle with the above thread only happens if I click on it from GD and not from a direct link as above.

Mentions: Chedburn, What is this?

Still happening here. Anything else that can be done? It’s so frustrating that about 20% of forum pages crash.

Here is the most recent page that crashes.

This issue has significantly increased. Literally 90%+ of the threads I’ve tried in the past week or so have crashed.
I’d imagine my post count has dropped a lot recently, as the forums are unfortunately becoming unusable for me.
Whis [1530096]
I’m in the same boat. Forums are almost unusable for me now. Almost all threads immediately crash when I open them. Occasionally if I refresh 5-6 times they’ll work. But for the most part I can’t really use the forums much anymore.
