What is going on with this site???

[LeatherHunter]

I am having the same problems for several days of site issues on Safari. I logged in using Chrome and seems to be working well.

It pretty much keeps me off the site except the occasional pop in

I still have problems with the page loading correctly.

Same here exactly

 

[Egalter]

Same here during past days either with chrome or safari.

Error message shows up quite often.

I had the error page yesterday morning but it passed quickly. Its working smoothly for me now. (Safari)

I just logged out (and changed my password while I was at it) and logged back in (Safari on an iPhone) and now it’s working for me, for the first time all day

We've seen the "oops" page several times over the last three days, both on Chrome and Firefox! Eventually I can log in, but sometimes it will show up while posting and I'll have to wait until the site is up again.

I just cleared my Firefox cache on mobile. Could be coincidence that the error messages have stopped. Wouldn't hurt to try. Will report back if it happens again and can replicate the fix.

Edit/Update; it did not fix the problem. I was woefully optimistic I had cracked the code. Loading the webpage is a gamble this week.

I see these error messages all the time. It has been going on for months, maybe over a year.

The frustrations that are vented because the site has problems are the result of life happening at the click of a button, or should that be, a mouse?

You see it when someone has a problem with their cell phone too. Believe it or not, life existed and functioned quite easily, previously to instant communication.

My own comprehension of the science that makes today's methods of communication work, is not far north of zilch, but I would hazard a guess that those with the knowledge are doing their utmost to rid our forum of the causes that frustrate and annoy.

In the meantime look up the definition of the word patience. I do hope that The Fedora Lounge's problems are resolved before too long.

With respect it’s nothing to do with patience or impatience.

Each of us access’s the forum independently and we won’t necessarily be aware if what we’re experiencing is just local to us or part of a wider issue.
Equally, by making any issues known then it’s entirely possible someone else may have a solution or work around.
In addition, it could also help those who might be working on the problem to know if it’s affecting certain browsers or access points i.e android, Apple, laptop, mobile, tablet, etc.

Safari is giving me issues, but I appear to be able to access TFL with Firefox

The OOPS! messages are being caused by a massive influx LLM bot traffic. Ordinarily, we would have about 2,000 visitors on the site. I've been blocking it over and over, and they keep persisting with crawling the site.

There is another method I am going to try today.

Seems to be an issue regardless of the browser - I tried a few with same outcome but it cleared randomly. Could be a database issue rather than front end.
