I'm getting massive amounts database errors, coming from every subforum randomly. They seem to be slightly abating, but they still occur and mock me D:

I can view the DnD index no probs, but many many threads and subforums (especially D&D Community) are hitting me with many Database Errors.

Your databases... they err!

They must be working on the Rules Compendium and overloading the database or corrupted some table connected to the forum while the DDI accounts are still connected to the forums.

If you keep retrying eventually things will work.

Of course, this generates more load on the server so if everyone did it it would never work. There's probably rather elegant maths/logic puzzle in here about devising an algorithm for how often you should click retry to maximize either personal page loads or total community page loads. :-)

For me, they only seem to appear when moving from one subforum to another, not moving between individual threads. Though, they are now seeming to get more frequent.


EDIT: Ironically, I just received one when submitting this post

I can barely even access the boards. Ive been trying for 3 hours tonite, and this is the 1st time Ive gotten through. I get a page saying the site is unavailable, or the site doesnt exist, or it just loads so slowly that the browser freezes eventually and I have to end task it.

Yeah, the forums have been unstable ever since the big merges. Apparently Gamer0 is aware of the problem...

But yeah, its annoying.
