About half the time (maybe more), I am unable to view another user's achievements. This is extremely frustrating when there is a site event involving achievements such as the egging and tp-ing achievements. I like to keep track of my friends to see who needs help, but I can't do that if I can't see their achievements :(
For what it's worth, this happens on all browsers that I use (Safari, Firefox, and Chrome).
[edit]
and
It's now February 16th, 2016 and I have had no acknowledgement of this issue. With another event involving achievements, I am still not able to see other people's achievements consistently. I wasn't sure if I should make a new thread or not...
Sorry for the wait. And I am sorry that this hasn't been looked into yet. I will make sure that there is a report and see if I can get a programmer to look into this! Sometimes if there are busy days in here, some threads get pushed down quickly and missed.
Can you give me an example of whose achievements you cannot see? I can see yours fine!

- It's not an all-the-time thing. For example, I could view your achievements page 7:00 PM today and it would work just fine, but if I try again at 7:04 PM, it wouldn't work. It's completely sporadic in terms of when it works and when it doesn't. But, when it doesn't work, it's for every user I try.
The only reason I ask is because it is hard for a programmer to look into something if they don't have an example to look into. And I promise that it isn't a matter of me not believing you! I do believe you are having issues, I just need to report it with examples or there is not much they can do xD

I think possibly if they periodically check a random users achievement pages, they'll find it works sometimes but not others? That's the only way I can think to look into it. I was just updating one of my achievement boards and there were four users whose pages wouldn't load correctly, but 10 minutes later, they were all fine. It's totally hit or miss, which is the really frustrating part.
I will see what I can find out :D

Are you still having trouble with achievements?
- Yes, this is still a problem! Just tried to look at a friend's achievement page and it says "There are no unretired achievements in this category, click on 'retired' above to view the achievements in this category." And that's not even trying to click on a category.
Which category are you trying to look at (from the left side bar)?
- It applies to all categories and the main page. There are times that just clicking on someone's achievement link just shows between 1 and 4 really, really old achievements (or nothing, just the error message I posted above).
I also have this problem, but I really cannot find a rhyme or reason to which achievements are visible. Sometimes they will also show my own achievements instead.
I am not sure if it is anyhow related to the last searchterm a user may have used to view achievements, or what, because I've found it very sporadic and random n_n;

The issue has not yet been resolved, and I was wondering if there had been any sort of update since July when this thread was last commented on. It's an inconsistent issue which makes it harder to try and figure out what the issue is, and it's hard to pinpoint exactly when the bug started.
Like , when viewing another user's achievements, sometimes I'm able to see everything fine and navigate to other tabs (e.g. Morostide, Games). A few minutes later, I'll get the following error message:
Morostide is a very frustrating time of year for this bug. I'm throwing TP or eggs at friend's houses, and when they're not online, it would be nice to just check their achievement progress so I know when I can move onto the next person. It's been a year since this thread was made, and it doesn't seem like anyone has really addressed it. Is this bug fixable, or is it just another quirky site feature that we'll have to get used to?
Just wanted to add to this thread: I have this problem more often than not, including on my own achievements. Earlier I was looking at the requirements of a few achievements and when I clicked onto another achievement they all disappeared and I got the "There no unretired achievements in this category" message in red.
I was starting to think that this had actually been fixed as I hadn't had any trouble in a while. However, today, looking at anyone's achievements, I either get a spattering of achievements that I can see, but not all of them, or I get the message about unretired achievements.

,
Now with Survival comes another time when looking at fellow users achievements is important, yet not fully functional all the time. Yesterday, I only got the "There no unretired achievements in this category, click on 'retired' above to view the achievements in this category" message once. This morning, I am getting it non-stop.
