Flash Becoming More Trouble Than It Is Worth
I play a lot of Flash games, including Evony. There are many people who have noticed problems with these games since the latest Flash update. So, please do not give us your standard "this must be a user error because we are perfect" answer.
Since this latest Flash player update, we've seen the following:
- Sometimes the GUI is half blanked out
- Buttons which used to take one click now require several clicks before they work
- The chat window pops back to the top every time someone enters new text
- Scrolling around sometimes takes forever or freezes up
- Lagging has increased exponentially
Are we all tired of Flash becoming more and more unusable? YES
As a former Flash Developer, I understand how easily Flash programs break and/or become obsolete with subsequent updates. I have become increasingly more frustrated and disillusioned by Flash and it's relevancy to the internet. As a Mac and PC user, I find it disgusting that I can no longer use my G4 to access the internet appropriately since Flash is so prominent and does not work properly on "older" Apple computers.
Please, please get it together Adobe before we all start moving on to something else. You are rapidly losing your fan base. Especially all the artists and developers that helped you popularize Flash usage on their APPLE machines.
