Crash Skin Mod: Common Causes and Prevention

As users of GameFAQs, we understand that occasionally our site may experience technical issues or crashes due to various reasons. In this article, we will discuss the common causes of these crashes and provide tips on how to prevent them from occurring.

One of the primary causes of crashes is overusing our search engine with an excessive number of searches in a short period of time. This can be caused by using a poorly configured or badly written browser add-on for blocking content, running a 'scraper' or 'downloader' program that fails to identify itself or uses fake headers to evade detection, or utilizing a script or add-on that scans GameFAQs for box and screen images while overloading our search engine.

It is essential to note that there is no official GameFAQs app, and we do not support or have any contact with the makers of these unofficial apps. Continued use of these apps may lead to your IP being blocked indefinitely due to our anti-spambot measures designed to stop automated systems from flooding the site with traffic.

Some unofficial phone apps appear to be using GameFAQs as a back-end, but they do not behave like a real web browser does. Using GameFAQs regularly with these browsers can cause temporary and even permanent IP blocks due to these additional requests.

Additionally, if you are using the Brave browser or have installed the Ghostery add-on, these programs send extra traffic to our servers for every page on the site that you browse, then send that data back to a third party, essentially spying on your browsing habits. We strongly recommend stopping the use of this browser until this issue is corrected.

The latest version of the Opera browser also sends multiple invalid requests to our servers for every page you visit. This problem can be caused by various factors, including your IP address being temporarily blocked due to a large number of HTTP requests.

In conclusion, crashes on GameFAQs are often caused by overusing our search engine, using poorly configured add-ons or programs, and utilizing unofficial apps that do not behave like real web browsers. To prevent these issues from occurring, it is essential to use our site responsibly and avoid overloading our servers with excessive traffic.
