When trying to post in the traditional for sale area, i keep getting that. at the same time, I am able to post in other for sale areas, and other site areas. See copy and paste:

Why is it?
 
Was able to do it no problem from my phone over wifi but not my desktop. Interesting. All google shows server side issue though, so maybe y'all wanna look into it?
 
I have been getting the same thing a lot this evening except mine said Error 522.
 
I just got this.

Error 522 Ray ID: 2890c53f126513dd • 2016-03-25 07:50:26 UTC
Connection timed out
 
Tried to post again today and got the same notice: "Error - a timeout occurred... ....What can I do? If you're a visitor of this website: Please try again in a few minutes." More like 6 days and counting. :jerkit: I'm out of here.

I still getting it. Trying to edit the same thread I had trouble posting (which was able to do from another computer). The message is coming from server side.
 
I literally just give up on the forum after 8 pm or so. From 8bto 10 pm Pacific time. I get the errors during the day too, but I'm not willing to refresh for an hour just to have the one post I've managed to type out disappear when the forum takes it''s nightly 2 hour dump
 
I've been having a big problem posting more than a few lines of text in a post.

I've found that I can type out a paragraph or two, copy to the clipboard, save a few words, then go back in and edit the post. I paste in a few lines at a time, and save. The forum will allow me to did this a few times, but one I hit around 15 lines, I get the little spinning circle, and I eventually time out.

Any idea what's going on?

Yup! It worked....thanks to Orca8589! I have no idea what's going on as I'm kind of new to this site however, I see it's also happening to "Gold Members" Lol. Hope it gets fixed soon. Peace!

Okay, today is 4/1, I've been trying to post a thread for several days. What I've found now is that the act of trying to post something larger causes my access to the site to go down for several minutes after. I try to post, 524 error, then 5-10 minutes of not even being able to click on something and open it.

I hope that helps the tech guys - it is like a request that is too big for the server causes that person's IP to get blocked until the server reset's it. I have to wonder if it is a bandwidth conservation thing that the server company is doing.
