Same here but I didn't reboot, then when it happened multiple times again at work I knew it was the site not the computer. WTF though I have seen that connection problems page at least 2 dozen times today and it just happened when I tried to reply to this.

I remember that, I didn't even bother trying to go back on for like a day or two cause getbig.com and flexonline.com were both over crowded and you couldn't do shit on the sites. I had 240 send me a link to the results like 3 times cause I thought the link was bad.

This usually happens when forum maintenance isn't being done on a regular basis, in my experience anyway. Also, there are probably thousands of inactive accounts that should be deleted.

Ok - after Lonnie mentioned Getbig on Court Television, and put my name out there, I got a lot of calls, but also a major spike in traffic, which slowed down the server, and eventually a database error. It should be fixed now. We are going to do some maintaince tonight or tomorrow night, and then upgrade to the latest version, which should be interesting.

I wouldn't be suprised if "Hulkster I'm Calling For A Truce" is contributing to the problem.
