I've noticed this several times in the last several days. Personally I'm not being kicked off the board or anything at all but there's times where it seems that no one else is here. The other day all the boards stood still for over an hour and I got curious enough to check and found I was the only member logged in.

This kinda happened just now but there were 11 logged in members when I checked a couple minutes ago. This does not seem normal at all to me. I know there's times of silence but I have never known this place to not have anyone on at any given time. Is this a possible bug?

Now it's 6...

Are people getting kicked off or something???

Weird! Before this afternoon, I hadn't logged in for several days because of the holidays and dealing with other stuff. But yeah--even during busy times of the year, we normally have plenty more people.

And now it's 2...

It's like I hit a time warp or something.......

There was a database error earlier, so maybe that's what it's from.

Am I showing up on there?
What does my profile say?

I never saw any database error, but there's over 100 people on now.

It lasted from around 3:20 PM to around 4:30 PM PST.

I've been here the entire time....

Maybe it was just me, then, but how would that be possible?

I mean, I also noticed that it was strange, because I still got a few e-mail notifications of replies being made to threads I'm subscribed to while I had a database error.

I have been getting interment database errors on the site for the last week or so, if it helps.

I just hit an error but it was only for a couple seconds and now it's all fine again....

Mee also. I could not log in for over an hour. This has been going on for me for the last week or so. Especially in mid afternoon. I will be on in the morning, site will be off-line for most of the afternoon, and back in the evening. And, from the posts in STS, others have been on all afternoon.

Dammit all.

I was locked out for about 2 hours. Watched some shows and it was fixed.

same for me. I got a lot of DB errors since the hack, so I guess it is just the admins that are working on stuff.
