Just keep HTML5 going and put up with the bugs!!
This sounds exactly like what was happening to me, apart from not being able to get back in at all.Yesterday I was having issues with the Trader not displaying correctly. The tab to place goods for trade was no allowing me to place any trades. On reading the forums I saw where someone had been advised to use html5 as a workaround till its fixed. I therefore turned on html5 which i had previously disabled. When i refreshed my screen i was logged out and no longer able to login. I recieved a message about 3D hardware acceleration needing to be activated. On checking my settings in Chrome i found that hardware acceleration is, indeed activated. I have refreshed dozens of times but I am still unable to login. I hope someone else has a solution to this as its very frustrating. I should note that i am able to login with the mobile app ( which i hate using).
Thank you for your post. I know I'm not the only one having problems with HTML5 but Support thinks I am the only one because they have not received any complaints about HTML5.Dear Electra,
You are not the only one with problems when using HTML5. See my previous post:
Don't introduce stuff like HTML5 unless it's working minimal as good as the old stuff.
it's slow, I don't like it.
wow, good idea..
sorry, too sarcastic ?
How much RAM do you have?Why can't the game devs assign a team to test HTML5 on their own computers, instead of asking us to test this program on our computers? Test it on computers and laptops that run Windows 10. See if the game crashes for them because HTML5 uses up so much memory. Since I switched back to Adobe Flash player, I do not see anymore "Out of Memory" messages popping up. I'm starting to wonder if receiving those messages constantly was doing any harm to my computer. There must be other programs that will replace Flash. HTML5 can't be the only one.

They're not going to know what needs to be fixed without the input of players who are using it.
Not a coding, but markup language. Even Flash version use a lot of HTML5 staff to work (like websockets for chat and notifications).
Installed RAM: 8.00 GB and a TB of HD space.How much RAM do you have?
HTML5 is a coding language, not a program, and is the new standard. Perhaps some of this information may help illustrate what is going on and why.

My concern is more about the bigger memory usage by the HTML5 version. I even suspect there is some kind of memory leak because over time the memory usage increases, especially when doing NH rounds. At work I only have 8GB and can run only one account no matter which browser I use. At home I have 16GB and can run several accounts at once but even there it get sluggish when using several HTML5 sessions....There seem to be only two obvious downsides:
1) slightly higher (but not critical) CPU usage than on Flash - this is some surprise to me ...
2) as it has already been stated by others, some fonts are really bad and blurred - I don't understand why this is not resolved easily ...
