Many of us have experienced a black or blank screen.

The Cause:

If your on free sky online during any kind of matinence. (A warning to future players who have not experienced this) This is why some computers work for free sky, and others dont. (even if there is a matinence on another server and your online, you will experience this instantly or the next time you log in.)

How to fix it:

My solution:
Delete cookies
Open freesky
Blank screen
Full screen
Refresh.
Wait 5 mins - 30 hrs and repeat.

(optional)
After you finish the last step, (waiting) you repeat this, and it doesnt work, try using a different browser.

Hope this helps!

Lol i call it the black screen of death ! XD lol this will be very helpful to players. Also if problems do persist even after changing your browser. Use a proxy that will fix most login problems you'll ever face especially the white screen one T_T

99% of the time when I get a black screen, hitting F11 for full screen mode fixes it.  I always play in full screen mode anyway.

Because you probably waited 5 - 30 hrs at the beggining, during, or after the matinence.

After waiting 30 hrs. (hours), I think I would just quit if it did not work.    This problem hit me once, I deleted my cookies and entire browser history.  Worked fine after that!

Glad I could help

I deleted cookies and cache twice and it worked again. It didn't work the first time I cleared them, but about 5 minutes later i was bored and managed to get back onto FO
