Championat.com User Comments Never Load?

[Faterson]

Is this happening to anyone else? I never had these problems last season. For weeks now, no matter which article I open on championat.com, sample:

http://www.championat.com/hockey/ne...orazhenie-podrjad-proigrav-avtomobilistu.html

... the user comments below articles never get displayed. (I'm on an iPad.) You only get the error message:

Ошибка связи с Фанат.ru. Обновите страницу.

Of course, reloading the page doesn't help at all. It's been like this for weeks now.

It's bad enough that no Russian-language hockey message boards seem to exist, but now Championat.com discussions don't work either.

I used to have the same problem, but one day it was resolved somehow. It's all about fanat.ru. They even restrict the number of comments daily alowed for those who isn't registered in social networks. I'd suggest to use allhockey.ru instead. It's a pure hockey site with more hockey fans and better quality information.

do you speak Russian? I also recommend allhockey.ru.

I know it's about fanat.ru, but refusing to even display user comments is ridiculous. It's like the 1990s, the Stone Age of the Internet. I didn't want to post anything, just to casually look at what people have been talking about.

Championat.com seems worse compared to last season, too -- pages load more slowly, they seem overladen with advertisements... Just bad web design overall. Not a good official media partner for the KHL to have.

I know about allhockey.ru, it's a good site. I guess I'll have to ignore Championat.com from now on. (I can read Russian without any problems, but writing, speaking, or understanding quickly spoken word is more difficult.)

The same thing happened to me. May be you should... wait? =))

Yeah... like maybe... wait for 5 years, 10 years? When it comes to web design, it appears that the folks from Fanat.ru / Championat.com still live in about 1997 today, so... it might take a few years/decades for them to catch up with the rest of the planet.

Unfortunatly, you are right. I was mad too when I had that issue.
