Subject: F5 vs ctrl+F5

This is the way the world ends,
This is the way the world ends,
This is the way the world ends;
Not with a bang but a whimper.

I notice Foman say the following in this thread:
Looks like the issue is resolved.

Remember, folks, that if BNet appears weird to you, do a ctrl-F5, not just F5, and see if that fixes the problem.


Being my natural curious self, I am wondering what the difference is between the two functions as it concerns b.net. Could somebody please enlighten me on the subject? I would have posted this in the last thread, but it seems to have been locked.

I believe CTRL+F5 clears the cache for the page, or something like that.

GGGGGGggggggggggggGGGG

Ctrl+F5 redownloads the page.

This seems like it doesn't go in this forum... just sayin'.

And I think it's a hard refresh, reloading all your... like... cookies and stuff.

I though about that, but because it concerns the website (or at least websites in general) and because Foman posted in the same thready (not the best logic) I decided against it.

And thank you guys for clearing this up now. Mods can lock this now. Not that you needed my permission anyway.

It's funny because at first I was like, what, this is the flood. This is where all random and mostly pointless threads should be, CS55 is off his rocker!!!

Then I saw I was in the septagon and had this mother of god moment.
