Answered Screen goes dark

Sometimes when I am in a thread, I have noticed that the screen goes completely dark when I scroll down far enough in a thread. It will go dark for a few seconds and then pop back on where I was in the thread. Then I try to scroll to the next comment, it goes dark again for a few seconds. Rinse and repeat until I'm so frustrated, I don't bother finishing the thread.

There's a greater than zero chance that it's on my end because my phone is a piece of shit. Any ideas why it's doing this?

Ok. I see what your talking about. It's just so frustrating and I don't know how to remedy it.

It seems to happen in larger threads. I hate having to dump out of a good thread because this.

Does the result change depending on the speed your scroll eventually hits the bottom of the page?

What am I , some fucking pajeet tech support.

It seems to hit a point in the thread and then does it constantly regardless (irregardless is NOT a word) of where I go in the thread or how fast I scroll. But I appreciate your input, Jugdish.

Oh contrare my intellectual friend, Webster's has decided to add "irregardless" as a new word. Apparently if enough people are stupid, and those stupid people insist on using a non word, it magically becomes a real boy, ah, word, just like Pinocchio! And you thought idiocrisy was just a movie!
