Question Server busy?
over the past few days I'm constantly getting "sorry the server is busy" I know others have had the same message too, is there a problem? I'm currently on server 5

I've heard that a lot, but I've seen none of those messages over the past few weeks.

I've had them for at least 3 days, even when there's been fewer members online, my friends tonight tried to pm me and couldn't initially due to the same message.

What time of day do you tend to see the messages (include your time zone)? Also, keep track of what server you're on when you see it. Thanks!

It happens early evening UK time and throughout the night too! I'll make a note of it in future and let you know, thanks

Mine usually occurs around 3-6 pm eastern time, sometimes later up to 8 or 9 maybe. No idea what server I'm on.
I did notice on the forums like hardware and xp there were probably over 1200 viewers combined this afternoon.

It happened to me for about a half hour today - 4:00 - 4:30 p.m. (eastern time) servers 1 and 3. Works fine now. no complaints, just trying to browse while I'm at work. I love this site!

Thanks for the reports, everyone. Time and server is very helpful. I'm a little suspicious of one server in particular, so I'll be glad to see what everyone is experiencing in this case. Thanks for your patience as we keep growing!
