Getting this (new) error a lot recently:

503 Service Temporarily Unavailable

Any idea why, and is there anything we can do to prevent it?

Sorry guys - I've been rather terrible at keeping up with everything :( I have removed those google and rss things at the top - and have changed a server setting that might help with the 503 issues


If it doesn't then probably the only thing that will sort it out is moving to a different server...and that's a real pain in the ass :)

Thanks, Vain! Good to see you around!

I haven't got the 503 error yet today, which is the first in a while! :lol:

Hey Ussumiel - I am back far too infrequently I know :) That's good to know - but maybe they just had a wobbly on the servers or something. But the setting I changed may help a bit (well i think it lowers the server load which is what the 503 error is usually all about)

Your name was invoked recently in relation to the cricket World Cup. Av though you would be conflicted, were you?

We (Ireland) had a really good World Cup, and we were unlucky not to make the play-offs :(

Hiya, Vain, nice to see you round these parts.

Watch has been exceptionally slow and frustrating the last week or so. Hopefully whatever you did will help.

Thanks, Vain!

P.S. There used to be a thread for thanking Vain, but I can't seem to find it :?

So I haven't encountered an error in a while, but the last few days it seems like there's a small delay before a page starts loading. Nothing big, just feels less smooth than it usually would when it's working.

I'm getting a lot less errors (make that, almost none) since Vain did his thing a while back.

Thanks, Vain!

Yeah, been very good actually. But I've noticed the slight delay that Murrin mentioned.
