The latest couple of days I've often got "the server is busy" message while I'm trying to log into the forum. Today i also got, macrumors: MySQL error....

Am I the only to experience these preblems or are macrumors became too popular???

It happens from time to time, especially on days when new products come out...

Sometimes the site is down!

If I have myself set to auto-login, would that mess it up?

No, the site is just too busy to accept any new users.

Yes, it is. On Linux, not Windows.

Yeah, welcome back. The servers have been pretty busy lately. Just figured it was an overload with all the new people and recent updates. Just have to remember to copy before hitting reply, just in case.
