Forum being slow?

[Chocofreak13]

it seems to have cleared up, thankfully. maybe it was something on my network, though i've been getting 5 bars all day. :\

[Pitkin]

No issues for me either, it's possibly a local issue indeed. Or you were unlucky with some lag spike. Several times. ^^;

[Chocofreak13]

if it happens again i'll let you know. :\

[Chocofreak13]

OSC is glitching hard for me today. ><;;

i've lost count of the 500 internal server errors i've gotten. if it helps diagnose any, it's all been around the PM system. is it under construction or something? :\

(also, just learned that there's a 20-pm-per-hour limit. wtf?)

[Pitkin]

The PM limit is certainly one of the forum's default anti-spam measures. ^^; I'd like to defend it saying that usually it's more common for an advertiser to want to send PMs more than once every three minutes for an hour than it is for another user.

edit: Hopped it up to, say, 30.

WHOO! PEOPLE DO LISTEN!!!

I keep getting 403 errors at random today. I assume it's something involving one of the other sites on this server, but I figured I'd bring up just in case

[Pitkin]

Received one earlier last week as well. Couldn't determine the reason (or didn't really look into it), however, as it lasted for less than 30 seconds.

I don't know if anyone else has had this problem but I cannot view a select group of posts,
you know like "view posts from" I've had this problem for a while now and was just wondering if anyone else had noticed

[Nichi]

You mean like the "view posts from [user]" feature? I think it's an issue related to the server; as it always gives an error saying "Due to high traffic, the search feature is disabled"

[Chocofreak13]

i think it's likely closer to a permissions issue for him. did you accidentally list yourself as under 18 when you signed up, cause that can screw things up sometimes. :\

[Simonorged]

no, it worked a while before and I didn't have a problem until recently

Edit: Never mind, it's back.

2Edit: I just cannot view mine

[Pitkin]

As Pentium guessed, it's a server load issue.

[Bella]

The only issue I've been having recently is with forum searches. Every time I try to run a search, I get this error message:

"Due to high stress on the server, the search function has been automatically and temporarily disabled. Please try again in a short while."

Everything else seems okay though.

[Chocofreak13]

basically any time i try to search for stuff i get that error. one of the other sites on the server must be popular. :0
