Forum Suggestions & User Assistance - Database Error

Recently I have been aggravated by threads or forums not loading. It gives me a gray screen and, if I wait long enough, I get the Database Error message. If this happens when I am posting something - I lose my work in the bargain. This has been happening for the last week or two.

Before it's suggested, I keep my cache cleared and I'm not using blocking software to account for this recent development. Has anyone else experienced this? And possible solutions?

This above described problem happen all the time - not contingent with scheduled maintenance stoppages.

Always 'Copy' before sending. My pages have been loading fine.

It seems to be okay now but a couple of hours ago it was all database errors.

We had a few unscheduled maintenance hours as well.

But, a copy of the post before you hit 'submit' would work well.

Thanks - and I already am making copies. Opened a whole, new folder! LOL. As a former manager and super-mod up the way, this phenomena feels just like a Denial of Service attack. Got any enemies?

Growing pains. Except that BF always has them - at least in the few years I've been a member. It seems like band aid solutions are being used instead of looking at long term solutions. Its annoying.
