    Here lately, I've kind of been an insomniac and am online at odd times, but I haven't been able to access the forums any time after 12am. I always get a 'server busy' message. Is it down for maintenance? Surely, the wee hours of the morning aren't busy enough to cause that message.

    I am sure Brett will get back to you about the specifics. Probably maintenance given the change to the new server.

    Same is happening to me but like last night I checked back 5-10 minutes later and it was working.

    Update*

    I spoke with the server admins and they said the issue is from the server performing too many scheduled functions, like backups, at once.

    They are going to optimize the schedules and makes some tweaks to solves the issues.

    Please let me know if you continue to have errors or issues.

    Thanks.

    Can you be a little more specific when you say "having trouble". Is the site just not loading, like taking a long time to load or is it coming back with some sort of error message?

    Thanks.

    Not loading. Just times out. It might be something to do with my clients network but i never had a problem before. It's working fine right now from home.
