Whenever I open a new forum page (click, or submit or edit, etc), for a small part of a second a white page with the text "test" appears before redirecting me to the real page.

I guess it would be impossible to notice it if my connection speed wasn't incredibly slow. But this happens.

Yeah, others have commented on it too.
I'm assuming Alex is working on the site's code and it will eventually go away.

I noticed it from the twitter links, and assumed it to be the API.

I actually find it rather amusing.

I seen the word "test" on a white page too this morning before I was redirected and was wondering about it.

I mostly use my Nintendo 3DS' internet browser (which loads pages very slowly) for posting on Wrong Planet. I see that screen for around five seconds, and it's very annoying! :?

Earlier today, the word "test" first appeared at the top left of the white screen as usual, but then, it moved to the centre of the white screen and slightly increased in size. After this, an old version of the site appeared briefly before being replaced by the current version. How odd.

I find that to be really strange just randomly seeing that page there. I honestly thought it was just me.

I've noticed that too, it's not really a problem but I still kept wondering what it is for, glad someone else spotted it too.

Yes, I've been seeing it too, with a number of the WP pages I've loaded. What do we have to do to pass the test, to make the word go away? :lol:
