ASUS PB278Q Stand/Base Defect

[scorpianzero01]

I don't know if this is a common occurrence with ASUS monitors, but my asus pb278q seems to have a defect with the stand. Like three days ago, after having the monitor for a month or so, the stand for my monitor started getting caught on something in the base and whenever i tried fixing it, it made this horrible clicking sound, like something is broken or what not. And earlier today, when I got home from school I found my monitor face down on my desk. Screen cracked, couldn't remotely tell what was on the screen, etc. The only thing I could think that could've caused this was the stand getting caught in the base. Giving it enough momentum to tip over. Didn't put this in troubleshooting forums because the damage has already been done, just wanted to know if anyone else has had this problem or if this is some sort of super rare occurrence.
