[FORUM BUG] Getting a lot of 500 errors lately

Post by Buster »

All over the site, but particularly in media median and forum games. anyone else getting this?
Most important thing I've learned from D&D?
No matter how tempting it may be, as a DM I can't both present a problem and solve it.
Every time a DMPC or NPC fixes something a payer couldn't i'm diminishing and undermining that player's contribution.

They seem to pop up all over the place for me. Not sure why.
If you refresh the page then they go away though, although if it happens when you're trying to make a post you might have to press resend after you press the refresh button so you don't lose your information.

well if you're getting it then at least i know it's not anything local since we're on different continents.

gotta be the server.

It pops up every now and then for me, but haven't had too many problems with it.

Yeah. It's definitely the server. This is an issue that's been happening for a long time though. It's one of those "random thing happening at random times" things that all IT people hate. :P

Long story short, although we don't know what causes it, since it disappears as soon as you refresh the page and doesn't really slow things at all, it's not really high on the list of priorities to be investigated.

That said, please don't hesitate to bring any other issues you have to our attention and if this issue does become persistent on a particular page on the forums then do let us know and we'll look into it as soon as we can.
