This Page Keeps Automatically Reloading when I look at it on iPhone - CuriousUserX90 - 02-19-2019

*This is a Trivia Evidence piece for a Submission I'm intent on posting of. Basically when I look at it on a mobile device, the page reloads automatically, was it something I put into the thread?

I took a look but it's hard to say. It may have something to do with the fact that there's an absurd number of videos in that thread. In fact, if that thread is supposed to serve as a source for a single piece of trivia, it probably shouldn't be used as it would require an immense amount of effort to verify the eventual submission.

This Trivia Evidence piece was about the Classic Mode titles in Ultimate that contain references and easter eggs, of which I needed a fair amount of convincing links to place in to help the submission get a good precise understanding as to what what they're referencing when staff view the trivia evidence piece, mostly videos were the thing to go for to help it sound convincing enough, a page on the internet simply listing all the classic mode titles like the forbidden sources would not've been convincing enough.

Right, but having to sift through 30 hours of video to verify a piece of trivia isn't really feasible either. If something can't be verified concisely, the trivia itself either needs to be re-worked or not submitted.

I suppose the only way I'll find out for certain if or if not is verifiable is when a staff member actually does go through the Trivia Evidence piece to see for themself, luckily I left a message at the bottom of the thread in case. I mean what else could I've gone with for using as a convincing source for a trivia piece on all the Classic Mode titles of Ultimate that contain easter eggs and references? The submission about all the Boxing Ring titles that contain references and easter eggs (as well as the submission about the regional differences) turned out fine after all.

You do realize that I am a staff member and have basically told you that a thread with hundreds of videos in it isn't going to work as a source, right? Ignoring the fact that the page barely loads as is, none of our staff is going to sift through all of that for a single piece of trivia. Please either break it up or remove it.

Decided I should take out the boxes that quote my previous threads upon clicking the reply button, since with all the stuff in them seems to be the cause of the Trivia Evidence piece to barely load: https://www.vgfacts.com/forums/thread-4378-post-78769.html#pid78769

Zpacej0k insisted on it after I showed him and some other VGFacts Contributors the Trivia Evidence piece in a Private Message, hopefully now the issue with the source I'd been using for a Trivia Evidence piece about the Classic Mode titles in Ultimate that contain easter eggs and references has been resolved.

The page was loading so poorly, I didn’t even realize there were quotes. As it is now, it’s much more reasonable.
