The same here, but called a friend and they aren’t having any problems.

My ISP is centurylink. Is yours the same? I’m trying to find something that we have in common.

California…Spectrum. Also tried Safari and Puffin and was told server not responding. Has this ever happened before Moms? Very weird. Fingers crossed we get Pogo back. Frustrating!!!

Answer from MomsBassetHound

Yes, it’s happened a lot. Usually they are faster at fixing it.

In Canada, Shaw Internet and zero problems.

I’m also having probles with IE. I can’t get past the MSN Home Page.
I cleaned my cache and got to the Pogo Home Page, but got stuck there.

Answer from Catmom

I can’t get in either, I go to the home page & nothing happens when I click the spot to log in.

Hopefully, it will be fixed quickly because Pogo is a big part of my Sunday routine.

I am in Nebraska and my rip off ISP is Cox Cable.

Hope nothing has gone wrong in California – that’s always my first thought.

Answer from bkpticecutter
posted 1 month ago

What 500 Internal Server Error means:

If you try to visit a website and see a “500 Internal Server Error” message, it means something has gone wrong with the website. This isn’t a problem with your browser, your computer, or your internet connection. It’s a problem with the site you’re trying to visit.

How to fix it:

This is a problem on the website’s end, so you can’t fix it yourself. Whoever runs the website will have to fix it.

However, there are often ways to quickly get around the problem. This error message is often temporary and the website may quickly fix itself. For example, many people may be connecting to the website at once, causing the problem. You may just need to wait a few minutes—or a few seconds—before trying again, and the website may work properly.
If This is a problem on the website’s end, so you can’t fix it yourself. Whoever runs the website will have to fix it.
If you experience this problem, try reloading the web page. Click the “Reload” button on your browser’s toolbar or press F5. Your browser will contact the web server and ask for the page again, and this may fix your problem.

I normally use Google Chrome but it’s not working from Internet Explorer or Firefox. I’ve had issues with playing since they switched from Java games to the new format. I have to reboot or clean my cache in order to play for very long, my computer is older so I thought maybe that was the problem but not so sure.

Northern California … 1:20 p.m. still cannot get in through any browser! Very frustrating since this is the big token day for Trivial Pursuit! Someone mentioned above about earthquakes here?

Live in Ga with Spectrum cable, pogo has been down since this morning, still not working. Of all days, today is the day you can earn 50,000 tokens. Wouldn’t you know it isn’t working today of all days! Just renewed, wish I wouldn’t have!. Most of the new games aren’t worth the time or desire to play. They need to come up with the old games working with their new system.

I got in on my 2nd account with Internet Explorer, but when I tried to change accounts it didn’t want to sign Holly out. So I stayed in that name on IE.

Then I pulled up Edge and finally got Moms signed in on that browser.

And that’s how it will have to stay until I’m done for the night :)

Good Luck to those still having problems getting signed in!!
