I'm having a lot of problems with AG at the minute. It's not letting me comment and won't load up. Just me or is the site undergoing maintenance?

Had trouble logging in; It said my user name wasn't valid. When I attempted to recover the account, it said my email wasn't in the system.

My comments dissapeard, though they've come back.

I'm also having trouble posting in threads. When I hit submit, I get a 404 page.

So I'm having problems too.

I'm having the same problem. The site was loading very slowly for about five minutes, I signed out. Then when I tried to sign into my account it told me my username and/or password is invalid. It was like that for about ten minutes.

Seems like it's back to normal now, though. Except for this:

That's in one of the tavern threads. I didn't try to post in it.

I don't know if it's a maintenance. I think it has to do with something at AG HQ. Something similar happened like this a few months ago, and Cormyn said there were overheating problems, or something.

There's definitely something weird. The forum THREADS not the actual forums are loading really slowly, and it says at the game comments "Commenting will resume shortly!" (even though I CAN comment) And now there's the "Similar Games" thing that I see. That was there before, (right?) but I couldn't see it but now I can.

So there was a problem but I think it's gone.

It was a problem with the database, but it's fixed now.

Unfortunately the down time lasted juuuust long enough to clear a bunch of stuff that would otherwise be cached, so please be patient while some of the forums take a few extra seconds to load.

Okay, so looks like there are some lingering effects. We have to restart our database, which will cause all kinds of weirdness on the site for a few minutes, but that should settle things down.

Alrighty, thank you for dealing with it Cormyn.

The database restart will happen in a little under 7 hours (midnight, Eastern time in the USA). Everything should be much smoother after that.
