Okay, I discovered this late last night though a lot of you users on the Mac Beta might already know the workaround. Whenever the Black Lion Trading Post hangs and doesn’t load on specific tabs like the “Trading Post” Tab or the “Sell on Trading Post” tab, just tab into your web browser and open a link to a site you haven’t visited before or in a while. For some reason I think it opens a new connection to the www and the TP’s connection will refresh as well. I haven’t tested this while gw2 is in fullscreen mode so I don’t know if it will work the same.

I think this is just a Mac-specific internet connection issue that may be attributed to how the mac handles wifi or certain service providers, though I’m no expert.

If you open the Activity monitor and search and close something called cookied (that exact spelling, it’s not a Type O!) and end it, that does the same trick for me, and since it’s called cookied (like cookies) it must be doing sort of the same thing

Yeah maybe so! I checked the forums and tried that workaround as well to be sure, but thank you. I wonder why it’s so weird on mac, but I can’t complain other than that.

Closing cookied only works for me if I first close guild wars 2 itself and then force quit cookied. Else nothing happens.
