Happening too many times over the last few days.

Must be all the spamming I've been reporting !

When and if you see this again, could you provide the URL and action you were taking during the time you got the error, as well as the time and timezone? That would help us tremendously in narrowing down whether or not it was a simple server hiccup that transpired during an update to the forum, or if it could be an indicator of something more pernicious.

Thanks!

I second Joe here, this is important as without any details our engineers are working in the dark.
Thanks in advance!

Today has been fine, but the last couple of days, it was just replying to post, it either errored or just came back and said the post was actioned.

If it comes back will make a note.

Posting above was instant, so a bottleneck looks to be the culprit ?

i've been noticing the same error over the last week or so... off and on.

Next time this occurs for you, would you post to this thread with the timestamp and the URL you encountered the error originating from? That way we can narrow it down a bit.

i didnt get the 500 error this time but got the other one that pops up alot...

"we failed to process your request. please wait a few seconds and try again"

1:37pm eastern standard time

edit: at 1:38 which was 30 seconds later (i used the browser back button and pushed submit again) it went through.

the TH site hangs for a good 30 seconds or so then bugs out. i've gotten into a habbit of copying my post text in case it happens its been so bad.
