SQL error?

There seems to be a problem with the forums. Sometimes they work normally, but other times, they fail to load at all and give an error message. Or load to a basic, memory-saving form.

Could this be simply from heavy traffic, or is it some other, underlying problem?

SQL error


note: as I had to reload when attaching a file and previewing this, I had the SQL error happen every single time.

I'm having this exact problem. It keeps giving me a "General Error" and says to contact an administrator. Is that's what's coming up on your screen or is it something different?

And @ ppl who know how to fix this kind of thing, anything we can do? It's getting pretty annoying to have to load the same page 10 times before it works lol.

Yes, the general error is what I get. The finer print calls it an SQL error.

Database server is on the fritz for some reason. I've contacted MLK's host, but no response from them yet!

Sorry about this!

Edit: Here is their post about it: http://www.dreamhoststatus.com/2011/03/ ... -outage-6/

Hopefully things will be back to 100% soon.

I think mine's working fine now. Or at least, it hasn't started playing up again. (for me, anyway.)

Oh, no. I bet you've jinxed it now...even with you touching you're wooden head and all, which, now I think about it, does seem a little hollow...XD ah, you know I'm only joking :P
