Opera?

[sgunhouse]

I'm a moderator on the Opera browser support forums. We had a user ask why this website loads fine in other browsers but not in Opera. Unfortunately posting about cheats is a violation of the Terms of Service on the Opera forums, so he won't get an answer there.


Opera has the ability to mask its identity. When I allow it to identify as Opera, I get an error message "Connection closed by remote server". When I identify as some other browser (though still using Opera), the site loads fine - and as you can see by this post, works fine also.


So ... if he sees this thread - use Site Preferences in Opera to identify as some other browser (I'm currently set to "Identify as Firefox") when visiting this site.


And question for the people who run this site (since I don't see any other way to contact you) ... why exactly does this site block Opera?

Hello and thanks for responding. We already heard about that user getting banned at the Opera forums. As a long time user of Opera, I suffer from that issue as well and reported it via the Opera => help => report issue function.
I thought that maybe some automatic update somehow killed the "support" for our site, but then I noticed that there hasnt been an update in that time frame the site stopped working for me, so I has to be something else which causes that issue.

Thanks for your feedback, I'm going to talk to our admin about the issue to get it resolved ASAP.


@ our Users who use Opera:

For now, it's the best workaround to mask the site as Firefox by doing the following workaround:

We are investigating about it.
