   More HTPP 500.13's
  Anyone else seeing a lot more HTTP 500.13 errors while accessing the site? It's been intermittant for the past week or so, but it's getting really bad just now (Having to wait about 10 - 15 mins between HTTP 500.13's).Is the new DB server conking out too?Mods: If there's already a thread about this, feel free to delete this one and fish-slap me [smile]Number of HTTP 500.13's while posting: 14   
  On and off. For this post I got none but yesterday and this morning I got tens of them.   ;  The new database server achieved rampancy last night and fled for Mexico. We've been using a hamster in the meantime. He doesn't look like much but goddamn can he parse SQL.   ;Quote:Original post by RavuyaThe new database server achieved rampancy last night and fled for Mexico.

Any time frame for them being fixed, or at least lessened by a lot?   ;Quote:Original post by DukeAtreides076Love that gif. ROFL. Poor beast..;  Anyone else get the feeling GameDev is being hit repeatedly by a DDoS attack or the like and the staff aren't telling us? Not that they have to of course. With the number of bitter script kiddies that have undoubtedly been banned from this forum in the past however, I certanly wouldn't be surprised, and really, this has been an ongoing problem for years. Any technical problems should've been fixed a looooong time ago. If it was a simple as throwing a few thousand at a new server, I would think GD staff would've done it by now to maintain the reputation of this site.
