Same here.

 

[SlickSnake]

Yep. Light blue screen with the words SERVER BUSY for about an hour.

I was hoping the site was finally upgrading from this ghetto forum software.

Oh well.

Probably due to everyone birthday being Jan 1.

IIRC it happened last year also.

Ok, the site went down again for about 3 hours. It looks like some people were able to get on though since there are posts during the time the site was down for me.

It was fine when this was posted, but the last half hour i've been getting errors.

 

[randay]

one time i clicked and the error i got was "Fuck Off! Im Busy!"

 

[Tiamat]

Had the issue the entire time between my last post and now. Probably is fixed now that there isnt anymore birthday shenanigans.

 

[FreshCrabLegs]

Sweet!

I'm getting my fix back.

Love you ATot!

(At least most of ya.)

IRC is doing alright, it's not what it was 5 years ago but Effnet will always be the greatest part of the interweb! I still go on at least once a week.

Effnet + BitchX for life!

Edit: Interesting... It reposted my response from yesterday....

Hmmmm.

ah bitchx, those were the days. i wonder if you can get an irc client to work on a phone nowadays?

With the additional load that the main forums page had due to the bdays I wouldn't be suprised if it was either true server load exceeding capacity or a rudimentary DoS attack. All you would have to do is spawn a few http gets in a loop and it would probably bring the thing down. It is probably a moot point but I still don't know why they don't code in a maximum value for the number of bdays to display or even just remove it.

Happy Birthday everyone!
