It has been doing this again today:

porn overload on the FTP server?

 

[O'Rattlecan]

Every time someone gets one of these, they get a ticket. I'll put in a manual one. Maybe they'll pay attention this time.

503 error usually referrers to the web server traffic being too high for the server. This can happen with a shared IP hosting plan, or it could be that the forum software is holding sessions (when someone logs into the site) open longer than it should. You could try adjusting the session timeout in the vB admin control panel or if your budget can allow it, bump your hosting plan up to the next level. It's a good thing and means the site is getting bigger!

I'm a sys admin at work and I have my own web hosting setup with multiple websites, forums and blogs, so if you have any questions feel free to PM me.

PS - Don't count on the hosting company to respond to any errors. You'll need to contact them first - it's just kinda the way things work.

I copy the text and post as soon as the site is back up.

I should post a time but it is within a minute of the post normally.

Been getting it often. As well as no smilies.

 

[Skandocious]

Yeah I've been getting them too.

 

[O'Rattlecan]

Been driving me up the wall, honestly. I sent in a little more 'persuasive' ticket.

Same thing again:

 

[surewhynot]

Same here. I think the server is "spreading the wealth". Giving all of our bandwidth to the DNC.

 

[radialarm]

My smilies when away for a little while yesterday,
but they came back after I refreshed the page.
