Why is this broken so much lately?

And PLEASE, change the giveaways section so that you can go to a specific page number! Having to skip through all the pages every time the site fails to load the next page is frustrating and unnecessary. IG Giveaways used to be able to do this.

Please add that back! It would be very useful!

This is correct! Site always down

You can add an extension called IG Helper to your browser. With that, you can get infinite scrolling, and load every GAs on the same page (also filter them).

IG Helper doesn't work on Firefox anymore. Besides, back when it did work on Firefox I remember that if IG giveaways glitched out then endless scrolling would stop adding new giveaways and you'd still have to refresh the page. So you'd have to start over from the beginning anyway even with endless scrolling on. And then you'd have to figure out how far in the scrolling you were before you had to refresh. It wasn't any better of an experience to have endless scrolling when the giveaways section kept failing, imo.

The only real fix is for IG to allow you to go back to a specific page number on the giveaways section.

IG please allow us to go to a specific page number in the giveaways section again!

It's infuriating at this point to have to keep going back to the start when giveaways fail to load. And it's even worse because this very, very, very useful function used to be part of the giveaways section. Why did IG take useful functionality out in the first place?

When the giveaways section keeps failing, being able to go to a specific page on the giveaways section in not just useful, it's necessary.

Yes, confirmed to be working. Thanks for your patience everyone.
Hi,

Sorry to be a bother if someone else has already told you. The Community Giveaways section is in distress. It's almost always down right now. It might go up for a minute or two, then it goes down again for a while. It's been this way for a few days. Too hard to create any new giveaways or check for wins right now.

Thanks for any help.

i get e240 telling me im banned 😱. why
also receive a message about the ban e240, judging by the number of participants in raffles, banned 80% of the participants, but what is it? a witch hunt? massive ban? system error? administration as usual pretends to be dead)
so I'm not the only one....that's equally refreshing and disturbing... :unsure:

а она походу тут одна *Паула*.ответы на форуме и в почте только от нее, хотя может все админы тут под оперпсевдонимом *Паула*)))
Хм, ну, ничего странного в таком случае, что "администрация" не справляется с проблемами сайта. :unsure:
В любом итоге, держите в курсе насчёт того, как меняется ситуация с этими банами у вас)

I'd just like to add to the discussion that IG Helper pretty much completely broke the Giveaways section for me. It would fail to populate some giveaways for no discernible reason and was not populating any giveaways above level 0. I don't recommend using it.

I have no problem using it (on Chrome). I'll try without to see if there were giveaways i missed.
