Okay so far today, (Tuesday) I have been trying to get to play some of my fave Pogo games. I can log in, the pages load slowly. I get to my faves and click on them, and the game screen loads. Then it shows the hint and that's it. The games are not loading at all for me. I've cleaned my puter files etc and all. Other game sites load great and I can play but not Pogo games. Is anyone else having this issue? Do you games load to let you play? Is there an upgrade or something going on that I do not know of? Help I want my Pogo. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

Pogo is forever having issues. I have the club Pogo subscription that costs $40 a year, but after it expires this next time, I will not renew it. It's a waste of money. Whenever I do decide to get on, they're down for maintenence or something stupid, and all they want is for us to spend more and more money of their foolish gems for more stupid badges. What a rip off.

I'm sorry to hear that. I have not been to Pogo for quite some time now. I am not sure what is wrong with their pages there. Is your antivirus software blocking it? they could also be doing an upgrade. Good luck.

In the last couple of weeks there was a few days it wouldn't let me play,do the same thing yours is. I would try later and it was okay,but not happy since I feel we pay for the service they should work out the bugs.Maybe there is an update or something going on.Yahtzee has been rolling slowly the last few days.Good luck getting to Pogo!

I thought all day it was just my computer. The same thing happened to me this morning. I cleaned everything out also even the cookies and the same thing. Also all of my other sites were up and running fast. I kept on then give up back and forth and finally am in pogo playing. Good luck, I hope it comes up and works for you now.

Okay. I last tried about 15 minutes before posting this. Guess I'll try later though as my urge to play has subsided now due to the glitch or whatever it was. Grrrr! HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

I had no problem getting on Pogo. I loaded Addiction Solitaire and played 3 games. I thought, at first, it was going to be a burnt run, considering it threw up that same message for me, but it finally loaded and I haven't had any more problems. Hopefully, yours will start working correctly, too.

I love the games over at pogo too. I have been so busy with other online stuff that I haven't had time to head over there. I did have a few minutes the other night, thought I would play for a few minutes to relax before going to bed. I logged on and I couldn't get any of the games to load. It must be a glich of some kind. I have been having troubles the last few times I have tried. Lets hope they get that straightened out.

Sometimes rebooting might help. Does your computer need a format? Something must be wrong. Otherwise your game would run faster. Did you check the game specifications? Do you have a computer which is able to run it without any problems? © ronaldinu 2008

That sounds frustrating. I don't Pogo, so can't really help you, but sounds like the problem is with the site. Hope you get it to work before you grind your teeth down too much.

Well now I know its not only me lol. I have been having the same probs with pogo today too. All I am getting is a blank screen. I am not even getting to the game screen. There must be a system glitch on their part. I hope they get it sorted soon before I go into withdrawal lol. :-)

You're not the only one. I been having problems wit pogo all week long as well. The page has been loading super slow 4 me and the games take like 5-10mins to load. The games work n let me play but its just sooo gosh darn slow. Sry it's not letting u play at all. Hopefully they fix the problem soon. Its irritating espec when ur trying to work on ur badges.

I never had problems eith loading Pogo games, i like playing on this site and getting my weekly badge. The only negative point of Pogo is that you only can sace gems if you live in the UK, Canada or the US but we pay the same amount over membership fees.

That has not happened to me in a while, but once when it did, I uninstalled and then reinstalled Java, and it seemed to help. I often have problems with the Macromedis Shockwave that Slingo uses. I like those games almost as much as Pogo, and I hate it when I cannot get them to load. Especially if I am just taking a short break to play a couple of games.

My computer has been loading slow and freezing some it loads but seems to take forever and I end up refreshing. Well I hope it works out for you. try to clean your cookies or download CCleaner and that works good to help keep PC in ship shape.

I have not had a problem getting the games to load, but the last few times I played Lottso! my balls would show up and then disappear so I could not play the round like every other game.

I haven't been on pogo for a couple days but from reading the other responses sounds like it is the pogo website messing up. I was really addicted to playing the games but lately I have started to become a little bored with them. I have a year subscription with them but doubt if I will renew it.

I play on pogo daily and have only had problems with pogo when I use AOL to enter the site if I use internet explorer i have way less issues. Sorry to hear you are having problems.

sorry grandpa, i never play pogo. but i know what you feel if your game won't loading. sucks... anyway, can you find other site to play your game? if not, probably you just have to be passien a bit more. i don't think you need to upgrade or anything coz if you need the site will tell you too
