Glad to see it is not just me getting that. I briefly wondered if my internet connection was going wonky again..

It's the same for me. GB is working very intermittently for me at the moment.

Me too. Same screen I was getting a few weeks ago which I posted about before.

This is the first time that it has happened so often for me. I usually get one or two a month, if I'm unlucky.

Database problems can arise from many things, so know that when such an error happens it isn't your computer which is the issue.

However, such problems can also be difficult to fix, but I'd think we all can rest safely that Buck will take hand off the problem, so just have some patience and I'm sure this problem will be fixed soon enough

(although it is annoying not being able to post on the favorite forum )

My computer works on the other forums after I posted this, and did not find anything. However, I returned to find that the problem has miraculously disappeared.

Seems we are good for now. (Or at least I am)

I'm still hammering down the exact cause of the database issues, but it seems that they're under control for the time being.

There's been another flood of these all over the place. Earlier I tried to post in SYM repeatedly and would encounter database errors when I hit the respond button and when trying to post my message, and several times now certain forum pages or threads have decided not to load for me...

This is the first time I've had these problems in a few weeks, thought best to mention it.

I'm starting to get an awful lot of these database errors now, since yesterday. Almost every other page I'm receiving one

I've had problems with it all evening. At least half the time I'm trying to load a page or post something, I get one of those errors.

Have any of you sent a PM to Buck, telling him this?

I've had the same problem for the last couple of days, regardless of the browser I use.

I considered PMing Buck, but according to the message on the page that shows up, there are emails apparently going to "the technical staff."
So I wondered if Buck wasn't already aware of the problem.

I had the same problem when entering the site today, and again when trying to reply to a PM. It seems ok this time though. It's definitely this site, because no other site I visit brings on the problem.
I shall now try replying to the PM again...
