502 errors and slowdowns.

[The Pi]

For a while there was the odd 502 error not that common nor annoying.
However today there has been loads of 502's and very slow loading in general.

I checked with Goli and phoenixgoddess27 in the shoutbox, so I know it's not just me.

Just thought I should report this.

All I'm seeing on the home page is a flood of everything that could be squeezed onto the page, to the point where I have to scroll right to see things, and the ROM Dump list is in a tiny box on the far left.

I though the page style had been updated and went looking at the customize portal options to change back again

Are they implementing the new skin that they hinted at?

If you think MySQL errors are apart of the new design then sure, why not.

Nope

Sorry to disappoint you.

All I know is that the server got reset apparently, which seems to have broken the portal.
Well, at least the 502 is gone.

What's a shoptemp invasion"?

EDIT: I think the Inazuma Eleven Remastered Version GIF did this....

What the hell is happening,the main page is infusing with shoptemp.ITS THE END OF THE WORLD!

Wohoo!My 1000 post that is counted as a post

Costello knows about the situation and once he has a better internet connection where he is, he'll fix the issue.

For the mods: Costello said to keep everything centralized in one thread.

 

[signz]

So... I assume IRC is down for everyone else as well?

€dit: Nevermind...

Glad to see that everything's fine now. For people who were wondering what exactly happened, click on the show button in the spoiler below.

[AlanJohn]

GBAtemp should fix this or else...!

 

[sputnix]

I think I had it once yesterday so I think the forum flood of pokespam is dying down

 

[tj_cool]

It's due to the increased rate of guests visiting the board (around 20000 atm).

I forced guests to log in for now, maybe that saves up some bandwidth.

That's pretty much standard procedure anyway.

I was wondering why I had to log in.
wonder why there's so many guest? isn't the pokemon rush over?

 

[Rydian]

The rush to find the ROM release is.

Now there's the rush of everybody trying to get the latest game running on their R4i 3D X-Cool HyperCube Upgrade SDHC WiFi.

 

[kiafazool]

Most users ever online was 22,838 on Mar 6 2011, 05:07 PM

i wonder what happened on March the 6th

 

[Slyakin]

Wow, we broke our record?! That's impressive.

 

[Wizerzak]

lol the exact day of the release of Pokemon in USA. I wonder how many of them pokenoobs will stay, or even join up?

@tj_cool i just logged out and didn't notice any difference.... i could still read forums and everything...
