That reminded me, like 10 years ago I started a job and the company blocked cougarboard.com.

But they DIDN'T block mobile.cougarboard.com. You newbies don't even know what that is. It looked silly on a desktop, but it worked.

Hopefully this works... sorry I'm cheap and don't have a lifetime subscription

There is a CB darkmode. Is it turned on? Click on your username and there is an option on the list

That was my first thought as well, but checked it and it's fine.

What browser are you using?

IE and Microsoft Edge

Make sure you get the latest version of Edge

El Jefe

I wish I could. Only work admins/techs are allowed to update. Silly.

I'll see if I can test it on Edge today.

Hopefully my screenshot link worked?

I just tested it on the older version of Edge, and it works just fine.

It's gotta just be my work side.

Well, some of the new stuff is served from a different domain, components.cougarboard.com.

As an aside, it should be a crime for anyone to use IE. I HATE having to develop for that stupid browser

I hate it too... but I'm no developer. It just sucks.

If a customer complains to me about something not working right on a certain lesser browser I like to point out usage

It was FAST on desktop. I used it all the time, because I was still on dial-up and slow DSL!

Genius! It's unfortunately not pulling up for me but clever workaround!
