fyi I am experiencing the dreaded server too busy indication especially around the 10-11am est. I can view this site on the phone during that time but I am unable to access the site from the desktop. This is happening the past two days.

I've noticed. And I have no idea what's going on. But my best guess is that because we share our Web space/MySQL database space on the same servers as some of our host's other customers, another customer has been doing something that takes up a lot of the server load at that time. Perhaps year-end reports or whatever. But whatever it is, hopefully they won't be doing it for much longer. And I can't really say too much because quite soon the forum will be doing something that will quite possibly take up a lot of the server load (so the other customers will be the ones wondering what's going on [santa_wink]). But more on that when the time comes...

Who knows what was going on tonight? The forum was inaccessible for me for hours. However, I see that Josette was able to post while I was still unable to get through.  [santa_undecided]  Were others able to get through between about 10:30pm ET/7:30pm PT and 1:35am ET/10:35pm PT?

I just tried to come back a few minutes ago, and nothing happened.  Then I tried again and it came right up.

Unable to access MOST of the time.  I did get through once though.

I've been able to take comfort from the announcement "Don't be surprised by anything you see here" (or similar words) a surprising number of times, over the years.   It's like the Hitchhikers' Guide's "Don't Panic" or "This too shall pass" for me.   And right now, I'm glad I don't know about all the computer stuff discussed above, or else I'd be worrying about it and trying to figure out why this or that problem is happening.   Instead, I can just let it be...

And that's the best attitude to have, Magnus, because everything does eventually work itself out.  [santa_wink]
