It been happening alot and I believe this question was just asked not to long ago. These people summed it up ok on the other tread when this as asked about.


It's a malicious DDOS attack from what we've been told. We're taking care of it.
It's usually because the database sometimes slows down because there's too many people. But otherwise, it's just a minor inconvenience.
It either one of those so just don't worry about it. Just keep trying and it will appear up sooner or later.

The funny thing about temporary is that you never know if it is actually temporary or permanent.

yeah not too big of a deal.. just too many requests at once and it overwealms the server.. usually it recovers fairly quickly all by itself if the requests stop.. sometimes i have to manually restart it.. (not too often, though)

only way around it right now is moving to a load balanced solution and that is way, WAY expensive. (more then PC can afford)
