Not sure if this is because I am using an older version of xenforo but someone posted this base64 url encoded image on my forum and it caused every other picture on the page to stop loading.

I can't seem to embed it here because it keeps saying to enter less than 10,000 characters.
 
Never mind, I deleted the element and the problem went away. But when I tried to revert to the previous version the problem disappeared, so it could just be a cloudflare bug.
 
If it's not caused by something like CloudFlare, I think this could be a browser quirk, possibly relating to DNS. The browser is generally responsible for determining which resources to load at a given moment and it really shouldn't block with one (possibly malformed) image, but it's not something we would strictly control.
