[Xumtiil]

Plus one, getting that quite a bit as well. Several other people that I'm doing a structured game with have stated the same.

[Rater202]

I'm also noticing this.

[MikelaC1]

plus three. hope we arent slipping into the bad old days

[Keltest]

Plus four. It's been periodic over the past few days.

[Metastachydium]

Yeah. I encountered that some six times just today and I've seen it before occasionally (albeit not recently).

[Palanan]

It's been intermittent over the past few days, but just ran into a solid wall of "server too busy" for several minutes.

[Rogan]

I've just got a bunch of those messages as well.
It feels like it's getting worse.

[Cygnia]

Got a bunch trying to access this very thread. It's been like this since Tuesday for me.

[Batcathat]

I had a ton of them yesterday, but today everything seemed to be working perfectly until I suddenly got a bunch of them (fittingly right after reading Palanan's comment about it in this thread).

[Rogan]

Right now, everything seems to work smoothly again. I'm reporting this mainly in order to help narrowing down the timing of the problems.

Is there anything else we, the users, can do to help?

[Palanan]

Still running into this intermittently.

[Rater202]

Seems to be happening a bit more frequently this morning after dying down a bit yesterday.

[Rawhide]

Is there anything else we, the users, can do to help?

Post the exact error message, what operating system you're using and version, what browser you're using and version, and if someone could post a screenshot.

Post the exact error message, what operating system you're using and version, what browser you're using and version, and if someone could post a screenshot.

Started happening to me this evening -- both in Edge and Chrome (Edge version 107.0.1418.42 (Official build) (64-bit) Chrome Version 107.0.5304.104 (Official build) (64-bit) )



EDIT: Forgot OS. Win 10 and Win 11

[Metastachydium]

Mozilla Firefox 107.0 (64 bit) on Windows here; the error message I keep getting looks the same as that posted by Maelstrom.

[Cygnia]

Firefox (most recent addition)

Post the exact error message, what operating system you're using and version, what browser you're using and version, and if someone could post a screenshot.

Sure. The error message is the same as the one on the screenshot above.
I've gotten it again about one hour ago, using Firefox 105.1.0 on an Android 12 smartphone.

Refreshing the page immediately didn't work.

Thanks for your work for this forum, by the way!

[Doxkid]

Also got the problem an hour ago just as I was trying to post that I was having the problem daily. Now it seems to be multiple times per day.

[Maelstrom]

Confirmed. Happening more and more (3 times now in the last hour, when changing topics and/or responding in a thread)

[Batcathat]

My error message is the same as everyone else's. I've gotten it on a Windows 10 PC and a OS X Macbook (both using the most recent version of Firefox) as well as a Iphone 11 Pro, using Safari.

[bramblefoot]

happened again, just a few minutes ago

[theangelJean]

The server is too busy at the moment. Please try again later.

Hey, I want Vivaldi to be mainstream!
