OS = Win10Pro Flash = Latest verson as of this writing (18.0.0.232) Game Site = www.thesettlersonline.net/ System = i7; 16GB RAM; 560GB available SSD space.

Facts:

While playing this game, the chat sessions within the game reset every 1-3 minutes. I know this did not happen with the last release of FF, and started sometime after updating FF to 40.0.3.

On the same computer, I can play this game on Chrome, Edge, IE, Maxthon and Opera without these chat session resets.

I have submitted multiple requests on this issue via the 'Submit Feedback' function within FF with the request to provide feedback and have yet to hear a peep.

I really, really prefer to keep FF as my primary browser, though I have to use others due to my business. Help me out with some feedback.

Thank you in advance.

PS - This is not a Facebook Game, and I do not use Facebook to connect!!!

Hello? Does anyone check this forum out, or respond to these posts? Been a week and not a single response. If find it difficult to believe that nobody else ever saw this similar type of situation.

Sorry. A lot of messages come thru here. Sometimes one gets missed.

What is the link to the game with the problem? Are there other games?
